Thanks for posting all this! Some of the scans you posted are showing things are malicious. I'm not too tech savvy, can you elaborate on this tool? Does that mean these files are dangerous to run?
Yeah, those are just false-positives, they think they are suspicious or malicious, but they are not. VirusTotal uses 70+ scanners to check the URL or file. The best way to think about it is that since the majority of the scans show it as clean, it is most likely to be safe. If there are several scans showing it as malicious, it probably has something that isn't safe.
