Hi,

I installed HTTrack about a month ago and when I did our Sophos Anti-Virus
detected the software as having ransomware in the main executable. I believe
this is a false positive but I thought that I'd let you know.

The Sophos website also classifies the software in the Virus and Spyware
category as seen here.

Thought you'd like to know about it.

Cheers

Andrew
