Should you have any doubt, DO NOT run in your live computer, run it a "disposable" VM instead. Once you got the key you wanted, dispose accordingly. :P |

I wish it was an open/community tool and not only a cracker with a nice UI. Being a little paranoid (but with all respect to madcrow) .... I did not put my serial on a program I do not know what to do with it. A VM, great idea, but without access to the internet, and being destroyed so that no information leaves the sandbox. Being little more paranoid .... IF .... madcrow it's a RIGOL agent or competitor? :) In his evil plan for bench world domination, could corrupt or degrade their targets, our nice hacked tools, subtly after defeating our field of trust with early versions, which of course work fine... I still prefer the public acces to the source code. ps: after the joke, congrats madcrow, nice work !. |

Try uploading the file to www.virustotal.com it tests the file with multiple malware scanners. Gives you an idea if it's a false positive or not. Note: many av programs false positive on any sort of obfuscation that is done. |

Hey Guys, Good news: The SW is safe, the AV warning is a false positive. Let me explain why: A key component of the DS2000A Upgrade Utility is the NI VISA runtime, which supports only WIX as a deployment engine. WIX has a notoriously steep learning curve though, building an installer + chainer with it would have taken as much time as I spent developing the app itself. This I why I am using a WinRAR self extracting archive in combination with some helper executables instead. It is these helper executables (bonjour-3.0.0.10-x86-x64.exe, bonjour-3.0.0.10-x86-x64-silent-w-installation-detector.exe, .Net451-x86-x64-silent-launcher-w-installation-detector.exe), which show up as false positives in some AV tools' tests. VirusTotal evaluation of these files: https://www.virustotal.com/hu/file/818cadd114fd39d6219f1029fb5f751d880863361b627171541ec9535ac72713/analysis/1396480447/ https://www.virustotal.com/hu/file/a113bf6398720e862921878be514a98650d20e366cf60cf42e24aec324e5939a/analysis/ What are these files exactly? They are converted from batch files using the "Advanced BAT to EXE Converter" tool. They also contain some embedded exe files (bonjour* contain the original x86 and x64 Bonjour .msi installers, .Net451-x86-x64-silent-launcher-w-installation-detector.exe contains a .Net installation detector tool written in c++ based on an MSDN article). Executables created with "Advanced BAT to EXE Converter" have been known to produce false positives in several AV tools. Here is a comparision article introducing the tool (#4 in the list): http://4sysops.com/archives/free-bat-to-exe-converter-4-ways-to-convert-a-batch-file-to-an-exe-file/ And here is the response of the author to the comments regarding the trojan warnings: http://4sysops.com/archives/free-bat-to-exe-converter-4-ways-to-convert-a-batch-file-to-an-exe-file/#comment-287556 Hope I managed to calm your nerves :) I restored the download links in the OP. |
