False positives sometimes pass after updates to VirusTotal's products. Personally, I don't think the evidence is pointing towards the file being malicious, but of course, you can never know for sure. I'd recommend that you reupload the file to VirusTotal in case of signature/heuristic engine updates. That coupled with the fact that we're not actually getting a hit on any malware signatures (it looks like a result of some heuristic analysis of the software, resulting in a match for some malware-like characteristics which doesn't neccessarily equal malware) makes it less likely that the file in question is actually malicious. Second, the file was detected by a new anti-malware product, while undetected by any major vendor. This is the software that will route your physical microphone signal into the virtual microphone device you created through Virtual Cable. This is the software that will create your virtual in/out devices. That's not really a good enough detetction rate in order to categorize a file as malware due to how often false positives occur. Yes, you can achieve this with the following 3 softwares combined: Virtual Cable by VB-Audio. Let's make a more rational analysis of the scan results instead of making the usual 'Omfg VIRUS' assumptions like a lot of people seems to be doing when presented with these results.įirst of all, the detection rate here is 1/60.
