Hey, guys! Recently I tried to update SimpleHUD to a newer version that I just finished coding. I scanned it before hand and on first release, everything was fine and it went through and then I heard LCPDFR got a new vendor or something? I am having issues with uploading the new version, Its been waiting for approval for a bit now. I am just curious what is going on. Can someone help?

Hey Venoxity,

 

we security check all files uploaded with Virustotal, I'm unsure where you heard this was new as it isn't a new thing and we've been doing it for a bit over a year now.

Unfortuantely, with Virustotal checking over 40 AV engines, there is the potential for a false positive, which looks like what's happened here. When a +ve detection is triggered, the file enters our manual approval queue for a manual review. I've approved your file now.

I'm hoping we can potentially improve this in the near future by ignoring the result of certain engines (like McAfee) which are seem to be responsible for a lot of false positives.
