Trojan alert on Pegasus 4.7 download

[quote user="irelam"]

I just download Pegasus Mail 4.7 from the S3 site, and AVG did not find anything wrong with the Exe distribution file.

Nothing detected by Avira either.

I’ve been using Pegasus for ~15 years and made only the occasional

upgrade over that time.  I thought I’d

upgrade to 4.7 over the weekend but unfortunately the download was intercepted at

my outer defences with a suspect Trojan, Kryptik.PFP.  I note a number of posts in 2012 re. Cryptic which I suspect could

be the same or a variant.  I am afraid I

am disinclined to disable the defences. 

Has anyone else encountered this issue, has the s3 download become

compromised?

What defence program are you using?

KSQR

Thanks for checking that. My download was intercepted by my external firewall, it looks like it may have an invalid signature or is just a bit paranoid.  I'll bypass the f/w and see what the  AV on my PC makes of it.
