'VpnGatePlugin_x64.dll' flagged as malware
hello -
i recently tried to update my installation of vpngate.
i downloaded the .zip file to my windows 10 computer.
i scanned the .zip file with my comodo internet security
software and it comes up a 'clean', so far so good.
current version:
vpngate-client-2025.04.07-build-9799.161482.zip
upgrading to version:
vpngate-client-2025.07.31-build-9807.162404.zip
my security software:
comodo internet security 2025 premium
product version: 12.3.4.8162
database version: 37923
i unzip/extract the .zip file to a folder, now not good.
comodo internet security immediately identifies an issue.
comodo internet security flags the file 'VpnGatePlugin_x64.dll'
as malware and automatically quarantines this file.
i have downloaded the latest install .zip file several
times now in the last few days and get the same result.
i suspect that this may be a 'false positive' but wish
to be careful and thus i am posting this info here.
i wish to check here before submitting a 'false positive'
report to comodo internet security.
has this issue happened to anyone else?
can you confirm it is a clean file?
does the file need some fixing?
any help is of course appreciated.
