Kaspersky is pretty adamant that there is a virus in Particle Sandbox...

Trojan-Clicker.Win32.VBitframe.exv

I downloaded a fresh copy from the TGC website and it still insists the file is infected.

Comodo flags it as unclassified malware and deletes it. Virus Total indicates that around 50% of all virus scanners (19 in total) detect it as a trojan or virus.

I am hopeful it just has something to do with the way the application EXE is packed. Baxlash's Kingdom demo, which also uses a packaged EXE to protect assets, is likewise flagged as "Heur.Suspicious" in Comodo when I try to run it. However, Kingdom is marked as clean by all other scanners and is never reported to be a trojan, unlike Particle Sandbox.

Glad to hear it!

I'll alert TGC.

I didn't put any viruses in it, and I'm confident that SmartPacker doesn't add any viruses. So my guess would be false positive?

I can scan the version that I sent to TGC, maybe they could scan the version that they are sending out?
