Symantec Norton Virus Scan Shows That There Is A Virus

[Tonal]

Hello! So, when I was downloading the SinusBot for my TS server, I was encountering an issue where that, when Norton (or Symantec) scans the download, it tells me that there is a WS.Reputation.1 virus in it that may harm my computer. However, I am questioning if this is actually true, and I wish to know if this is only just a false reading upon my Norton antivirus that I pay for monthly. Thank you.

Of course it isn't a virus. Don't worry.
EDIT: If you downloaded it from the official page.

If you have downloaded it from sinusbot.com it is not a Virus
And Norton is Crap, think about to buy a Kaspersky version.

Da hast du nicht falsch gedacht.

WS.Reputation.

Das ist nur eine Meldung darüber, dass der Autor (ich) mit seiner Signatur (man signiert Dateien um zu bestätigen, dass sie auch wirklich unverändert ist) im Windows-Universum noch keine Reputation aufgebaut hat. Wenn die Datei und damit auch die Signatur bekannter ist, wird die Meldung automatisch weggehen. Ist nervig, kann man aber nur beschleunigen, indem man viel Geld auf Microsoft und die Antivirus-Firmen wirft, was ich nicht vorhabe

Damn, initially this was an english thread...
It's as it says a reputation thing. I'm fairly new to distributing signed Windows binaries so it takes some time before that warning disappears. That is unless I would give a lot of money to Microsoft and the Antivirus companies, which I'm not going to
