virus download version 3.0

[Adrien Monteleone]

If so, it is something new in Windows 8+. On Win7, Windows Defender doesn’t do this.

Could very well be a false positive if others are scanning and not getting a hit. A cursory search shows Windows Defender has been throwing this out as false positive since at least October.

See this topic for submitting false-positives so Microsoft can remove them from the signature files: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/48301141/windows-defender-detecting-exe-as-trojanwin32-azden-acl-virus
