Long time user of DesMuMe here. Got a new computer and was downloading the autobuild listed on the downloads page and windows flagged it as a virus.

Is this a problem or is it overreacting. Thanks in advance.

What anti virus are you using? Nothing happen on my PC... Maybe your PC have problem...

It's windows defender, the one that comes stock with windows 10.

Same, but nothing happen on my PC. Just clean. Maybe your PC need to clean first. Plus, make sure you download from this website.

This website here.... https://buildbot.orphis.net/desmume/ ... wa outdated. Use latest version. Anyway, it was FALSE POSITIVE if found anything.

Some latest builds are detected as virus and some arent
0.0.0.718, 0.0.0.719 = clean
0.0.0.720, 0.0.0.721 = virus detected
Win10x64 20H2 fully updated, Windows Defender antivirus

I'm also having the same problem, Windows Defender flags it as "Trojan:Win32/Spursint.F!cl".

Virus found only when download with Chrome, i download that same file with another browser (Opera) and no problem occurs anymore.

relax people this is normal. my avast software does the same thing all the time i have to temporary disable it so it doesn't interfere with desmume. you can use a site called virus total to scan desmume if you want but its safe.
btw if any one if having issue with their PC, run adwcleaner to clean up adware and bloutware tfc.exe (by oldtimer) to clear up space on your drive and then malwarebytes to clean up and remaining adware and viruses. if you are still having issues after that you might want to run tweaking windows repair AIO (this will fix any corruption left by viruses.)
hope that helps.
