He's also getting bounce mail reports because some of those anti-virus engines will also declare an email to be malicious just because it came from a 'malicious site'.

This is also about the time anything even attempted to contact the actual admin about the problem, but he's already getting emails from freaked out grandmotherly-types. Yet other people going to different vhosts on the same IP address to find out the details about their upcoming church picnic or whatever are now getting dire warnings that the site may have been compromised and it is being used to ship malware so they should turn back for their own safety. The idea that it would be compromised is almost laughable because it's barely being allowed to do anything to begin with. They promptly begin to blacklisting the IP address_it uses, which also happens to vhost a dozen dinky little websites used by church groups and reading circles in a relatively rural community. Now there's other engines apparently decide that this this site has been getting more and more attention (don't even ask me how the hell this happens other than some people were really bad at copying homework as kids) and the number of virus engines that are 'finding malware' on it keeps growing, that it must have been _compromised_. because drumroll please multiple antivirus vendors have begun detecting malware on the site. Adding to the confusion is that since a few of these companies use 'heuristics' which amount to 'If other engines decided this file was evil, then we'll just add it to the Big List o' Evil and call it done.' Multiple vendors do this, so over the course of days you'll see more and more engines 'decide' the file is evil, and if they know where it came from it gets even worse.Р”В«ecause now there's more and more 'professional' engines reporting 'eek! A malware!' of these two fairly innocuous files on this utterly boring dump site running on a BSD server with all of two user accounts, no offsite passworded logins allowed, and a deeply paranoid admin, so the algorithms that are used to determine if a site itself is safe start to drop their ratings. The problem here is that since a couple of the antivirus engines now declared these files to be possibly verboten because they might be used for piracy (if you were so cursed as to need decade-old desktop publishing), other, less-granular anti-virus engines now also return a false positive for 'malicious software' because they don't distinguish (or care) between the different types of 'possibly evil' software. Most of these are very widely known (especially the keygens that have been around for over a decade) and known to do nothing but spew out a code. The antivirus companies are all in a big rush to show they detect eleventy bajillion more things than the other guy, so several have categories for anything even remotely bad, like keygens and cracks. Fast forward a couple years and Google eventually indexed his webserver because it was open and someone mentioned it over IRC or something, and then the antivirus engines looked at it, and that's where things went sideways.

This wasn't piracy, because these were for a couple of long out-of-support products running on hardware you'd be shocked to still see people using (who definitely had the licences but good luck keeping paperwork in order at a rural public school) but he still had to support these museum pieces.

Each antivirus company cares about making the number of detections they can show on their website larger than everyone elses, and that's it.Р”Р„ few years back a friend of mine put a keygen (from Adobe, no less) and a crack (which was a fix for some incompatibilty I forget) up on his non-SEOd 'I don't care' web server so he could more easily get at the files while at work, because he needed them for work. You're going to have to start threatening to sue people, because that system is more than a little bit incestuous and definitely does not care. Google bought the company that runs VirusTotal in 2014, but they definitely did not build that monstrosity.Р”Р„lso, expecting problems of that nature to get wrapped up in just a week is well. Trying to correct it by just calling out Google will get you nowhere.

It also looks like that's where all this nonsense is coming from. The antivirus industry has for a /very/ long time been a hotbed of stupidity.
