      I've just hit a positive detection of malware in the mingw build of 5.0.2, in xmlpatterns.exe and xmlpatternsvalidator.exe

      According to comodo antivirus, the threat is identified as high risk "MalCrypt.Indus!@105441913" and is only found in the 5.0.2 files, not in the files of the few other Qt versions I have on my system.

        can you provide the link where you got the file from ? is it http://download.qt-project.org/official_releases/qt/5.0/5.0.2/qt-windows-opensource-5.0.2-mingw47_32-x86-offline.exe ?

        have you tried other antivirus ?

          Yes, it is the official release. No, i don't have any other antivirus. It is probably a false positive, but still.

            Based on re-scans today with two different antivirus tools & three different Windows machines without any warnings or findings I would believe “MalCrypt.Indus!@105441913” detection from xmlpatterns.exe and xmlpatternsvalidator.exe as false positive.
