I d/l the guide yesterday and my AV (Norton) found and removed a virus but the guide itself still d/led and functions properly. I haven't looked for the log yet so I figure it could a false positive.When you say something like this, you should always specify:
- what does give you this warning: your AV, your browser, some other software;
- specify which AV, browser or other software gives you this warning;
- what does the warning say exactly.
No one else has said anything about it, so it must be something specific about your system that differs from others and without any details it's impossible to replicate your situation.
File hosting sites often trigger AV's or browsers because either some files there may have been infected at one time or some ads have been the malicious kind. All that without mentioning all the false positives that some files often trigger.
In this case it's the Racaty file hosting site.
It triggers nothing in my computer (Firefox browser and ESET antivirus). And the file itself is a totally normal PDF.
Without any details your information is worth exactly nothing.
Edit: It's Norton Internet Security and there is no log but as I said it downloaded and works just fine so just a false positive.
