- Q. My virus scanner claims imapsync.exe is a virus/malware/trojan etc.
- What the hell?
- R1. Yes, I find the same sometimes with few antivirus, some report that
- imapsync might have a trojan in it.
- Most virus scanners say imapsync.exe and is ok.
- I've done this test on imapsync.exe releases
- 1.977, 1.945, 1.836 on the two following
- meta-virus-scanners:
- https://www.virustotal.com/
- https://www.metadefender.com/
- R2. Explanation:
- It may come from the fact that imapsync checks whether there is a
- new release available at http://imapsync.lamiral.info/VERSION
- It's explained here:
- https://imapsync.lamiral.info/#NUMBERS
- Any other explanation is welcome!
- R3. There is no virus alerts reported for the Perl script imapsync
- itself. The binary imapsync.exe is just a compiled version of
- the script imapsync, with perl interpreter itself and all modules
- needed by imapsync in order to make imapsync.exe a standalone software.
- R4. Using online meta-virus-scanners
