Hello. Just downloaded this file with a link from newsletter. Here is a report from my Kaspersky Antivirus:

15.12.2016 12:58:28    Deleted    software that may cause harm HEUR:Hoax.Win32.ArchSMS.gen    D:\Distributive\Maxthon\mx5.0.2.900-beta.exe    Medium

I changed my station to check it more. Installer tryes to modify Internet Settings, Services and more via registry and It got no chance to try..

I have no chance to install this version with antivirus enabled. Executable quarantined with no choice to avoid or cancel  this action. And I wonder, what information will be pushed into my registry? What changes will be done with my Internet Settings? I'd like to have a choice to allow/disallow or - at least - review these changes.

I noticed, this beta-release appeared in  Release notes of MX5, but the content of last record has no reflection of e-mail news-letter. And points to 1) Chinese site 2) with previous beta-release.

I scanned mx5.0.2.900-beta.exe through two scanners online and none of them showed the virus. Kaspersky is also included in the list:

Check the checksum of file you've downloaded.

  • Maxnote _ switch folders in thumbnail column without timely updates in the middle column
  • Maxnote _ search should not differentiate upper and lower case
  • Maxnote _ unify fonts in list view
  • Add to Maxnote pop-up window, add to a certain folder, contents display partially
  • Passkeeper _ private notes and accounts detailed page do not show edit form

I have a favorites folder named COD, but if I search for "cod" search displays five results, 4 containing Cod, 1 cod, but not my COD folder.

Nevermind, search does not search for folders...

I checked file against both virustotal and metadefender and my file is alose virus-free. But, again, it makes suspicious actions and that is the reason, why new installer get blocked. Previous installer made none of them and I have had no problems.

Nice suggestion! I'll discuss this with our product manager and try to persuade her to do so!

well they have refused all such suggestions since MX3 or maybe earlier - maybe you can break the mould - it would be a first - listening has never been one of their qualities

That virus that came's up in your anti-virus it's an Fake alert or Joke virus messagge i see «HOAX» in the name.

it's an fake alert 

Hoax is effectively a fake alert  ; i got Kaspersky 2017 and no warning

it seams it's a link in a newletter and that's the main thing.

you always have to tell people to download from the main site and not with a gentle (trapped) link
