Hi, I totally cleaned and put new Avast virus software on the laptop which had the reported Vigdorf trojan download. I don't have any screenshots for that incident. However one of my other PCs also has reported a different virus: HTML/coinminer Trojan from a Softonic download. I have a screenshot but when I click the Photo button and upload button above, nothing happens and the file does not load. I also noticed in the last few weeks that I cannot download any files from Softonic using Google Chrome with my normal medium-high security and cookie settings. I can only download from Softonic if I make it a trusted site and agree to all cookies. With these recent experiences of problems plus two reported virus incidents, I will not be using Softonic again, even if they really are false positives, because I have no way of verifying that at the time. For now I will use Majorgeeks where I can download Iobit products without changing my browser security or getting virus reports. It would be good if your download system offered options for download sites instead of forcing users towards Softonic.

Both Malwarebytes and MS-Defender thought it was a real threat. Thanks for the alternative link

I just received a Trojan virus: Trojan:Win32/Vigorf.A in a download of the free Iobit Software Updater module. I had been having problems getting the downloads from Softonic to work for several weeks and as soon as I slightly relaxed my cookie security to try to get the downloads to work - I received this Trojan. I have no intention of using Softonic ever again, so unless Iobit offer alternative download sites, I will have to look for other software to use, which would be a great pity, because I have found Iobit and and the ASC family to be one of the best free products until now.
