Waterfox 18.0.1: 19 January [Firefox 64-Bit] - Page 236

post #2351 of 5136
avast notified me something about a virus last time I used Waterfox, probably a fake alarm or something, but has anyone here gotten any malware alarms in Waterfox? I can't remember what the virus was called, I've reinstalled Windows 7 and Ubuntu 12.04 now, but it seemed Waterfox specific because I didn't get it in any other browser, like Firefox or Firefox Nightlies.

All antiviruses are capable of producing false positives. If there was any malicious intent behind the release of WF, I'm pretty sure it would have been outed by now, well over a year after its first release.

I got that from avast! as well. Might be because the .exe is named Firefox but the application name is Waterfox so it thinks it's a "fake" application.

Why does WF12 not need the Intel redist then? Why only WF13?

Because WF12 was not compiled with Intel's C++ compiler.

It hasn't been released yet. When it has, you'll have to download the installer and install it (but uninstall the older version first).
