I’m not sure how you managed to reach that conclusion as I have now three Mac 
OS X users with detections involving multiple applications that only run in OS 
X and are being identified as infected with Win.Adware.Softpulse-215.  Why VT 
identifies this one as ā€œ-218ā€ is strange, but nevertheless, identifying an OS X 
app as infected with a Windows only threat certainly strikes me as being a 
False Positive.
