First let me say hello to you all. I have been looking for a modern version of the Basic programming language for a long time. I used to do a lot of programming in QBasic and was delighted to find QB64. I downloaded the Linux version, file named: qb64_dev_2022-09-08-07-14-00_47f5044_lnx.tar.gz As I usually do, before starting, I first check all files on virustotal.com. One of the antiviruses, NANO-Antivirus reported that the file was infected with Trojan.Script.Vbs-heuristic.druvzi Is it a misidentified virus or is there really something wrong with the file I downloaded? Sceeenshot is below.

Given that there isn't (or certainly shouldn't be) any VBS in the archive; I suspect that it is a false positive. Also, the actual host of the file (along with the generation of said file) is on github using github's virtual machines - which are create from scratch at build time... so the chance of something being there is pretty unlikely.
