fpefpe Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Hello -- Is there a reason why everytime I download the imgburn setup file Norton Security (NS) keep deleting it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Probably, Norton is flagging it as a PUP (Potentially Unwanted Program) vector. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Where are you downloading it from? Try one of the mirrors here: http://imgburn.com/index.php?act=download They all can't be corrupt. If NS still flags each one from all 7 mirrors, it's probably a false positive. It's not like Norton AV has NEVER had a false positive. I know that from experience.

fpefpe Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 Hello -- Thanks for the reply .... I did the download from from the last mirror, the imgburn mirror -- in addition I check the sha1 digest with no issue I have kaspersky IS on another computer and that a/v has no issue with it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 It seems to be a false positive with NS then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpefpe Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 Hello -- I just did a download from the first mirror and got this file Setup_ImgBurn_2.5.8.0_dlm.exe the sha1 digests DONT match from the posted value on the download page -- 6FC013ED5944B13EFC54648699EA80F304E37AD0 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 LUK fielded another post similar to that about mismatching hashes. He said they actually were matching. I never do hash comparisons so it's beyond my expertise to comment any further. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fpefpe Posted February 12, 2018 Author Share Posted February 12, 2018 OK -- thx for the info .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Yeah, in other words, the author of the software, LUK, will have to address that as I have no knowledge of the hashes. Sorry. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LIGHTNING UK! Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 To me, dlm means download manager. That's *not* the ImgBurn setup file. Perhaps you clicked on an advert by mistake? The do often look like a legitimate download button. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dbminter Posted February 12, 2018 Share Posted February 12, 2018 Yes, that sound like a wraparound. In fact, if you click the first mirror, like the OP apparently did, you get a page with a Download button that says Download Manager Enabled. Try the last mirror, the "official" ImgBurn download mirror, and compare hash info. The file it distributes is SetupImgBurn_2.5.8.0.exe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
