Due to the nature of these antivirus, it is very possible that both of these happened in quick sequence: - an update to their virus tables/heuristics/whatever got pushed, and caused LibreOffice to be detected as a malware - a later update was quickly pushed to fix that People having the first updates without the second one will have issue, while people not having the first update, or directly getting the second one, will not have any problem. These kind of false positive are somewhat common with antivirus, and usually gets fixed quickly. There's also the remote possibility that a malware carrier actually targeted libreoffice binary and caused a bunch of people to actually be infected; but since most report of trouble are about a ransomware, and that none of the complaints resulted in unusable files, it's unlikely :) -- To unsubscribe e-mail to: users+unsubscr...@global.libreoffice.org Problems? http://www.libreoffice.org/get-help/mailing-lists/how-to-unsubscribe/ Posting guidelines + more: http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Netiquette List archive: http://listarchives.libreoffice.org/global/users/ All messages sent to this list will be publicly archived and cannot be deleted
