Trojan Detected in RealPlayer


Recommended Posts

I downloaded a program installer of Realplayer from its official website (https://www.real.com/thankyou?rppr=home).

However, I uploaded the exe to Virustotal and it shows trojans are detected. https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/4b01852ab9743de65c26d89d3cf14cc12900bcada2d46fb015a8537b7164e419/detection

I thought Real is a reputable company.

To be safe, I moved the exe to quarantine.

Question 1:

Files in quarantine cannot harm my computer right?

Question 2:

I haven't executed the exe yet. Should I be worried.

It's a potentially unwanted application (PUA), not a trojan or malware. The detection is optional and correct; the application fulfills criteria for potentially unwanted applications. For more information what PUAs are, please refer to https://support.eset.com/en/kb2629.
