PUA.Win32.Packer.Upx-57 Trojent virus in CoolSoft_VirtualMIDISynth_1.13.2.exe ?

With ClamTk with Scan for Potentially Unwanted Applications (PUA) turned on
in the options I get PUA.Win32.Packer.Upx-57 Trojent Virus reported about
CoolSoft_VirtualMIDISynth_1.13.2.exe on a scan of that file.

This is with Antivirus definitions current for 4 August 2015 & Antivirus
engine 0.98.1

This may have to do with binaries being detected resembling somthing
effecting Windows system directories possibly.

Not sure a false report though.

Also Viper antivirus says http://coolsoft.altervista.org is a dangerous
web site.

Just checked the setup file on VirusTotal and it confirms it's clean: 0/56 positive.

  • Are you sure you've downloaded CoolSoft_VirtualMIDISynth_1.13.2.exe from CoolSoft website or from another (unauthorized) site?
  • Have you checked the integrity of the downloaded file?
    I always publish MD5/SHA1/SHA256 hashes together with the EXE files, please check it with an hash checking tool (like this).
