Title: Clam virus scanner, sees encrypted file as a threat.
Post by: then00b on November 21, 2017, 06:00:00 PM
Hello! I have this encrypted note from CherryTree, and after I scan my device for viruses. The Clam virus scanner, said "Heuristics.Encrypted.7Zip" I'm just wondering if this is a real virus or even a real threat?
