heroes3wog.net - trojan warning

After update of Malwarebytes I receive a warning of a trojan virus at
http://heroes3wog.net/heroes-3-maps-collections-download/
Before update it was working properly. And I'm not sure, if my new Malwarebytes is too suspicious or something is wrong with this site and map package?
Anyone can confirm this virus threat?

I use F-Secure, rarely people know about Finnish anti-virus. It pay 19€ between 500€. My F-Secure paid 109€. Ok I never got a warning, when today site is a good. I remember 3,58f time, site was dirty. Today F-Secure doesn't notice something. Hmm I hate viruses, spies, etc

And what about h3m and h3c? Can they also be considered as 'trojan' (although they are not really a 'trojan')?

And I love it, it saved my computer so many times    But I'm aware, it is sometimes overprotective. Still, I trust it's judgement.
And I don't know why this topic should be harmful. If the user answer like Baronus or Ghost did, it should rather help convince others, that the site is fine.

If in doubt, you may check other opinions by using online virus checker. Like: https://www.virustotal.com

And, the page is free.

F-Secure is owned by MWR InfoSecurity from 2018 and doesn't rank much well. Let see from Google:

Quote:
Can I trust F-Secure?
But these are results we trust most – largely because it's the only one of the three which is AMTSO certified. F-Secure SAFE was ranked 12th in its October to December 2020 report, with a Total Accuracy rating of 92%. For context, Kaspersky, McAfee, Avast and AVG scored 100%.

I had used F-Secure Safe. No comment. Then you can test free F-Secure online scanner. I've tested, also no comment. My friend knows all computer matter, also he builds power supply. If homemade so his power supply carries 386 or 486 machines. Ok he said free Avast, when F-Secure was been the world's best. Now's Avast. I can't understand him.

Well yes it is. When it says a zip file containing maps has trojans it makes me wonder why it costs money. Kaspersky here and Liso's site never gave any warning, nor any file from. It is a very liable and helpful database for every heroes fan.

I didn't catch your irony at first Now I know, why you were asking about costs.
I also tested it with AVG and found nothing suspicious. That's why it seems suspicious, that Malwarebytes is so eager to flag this site.

Easy! When Dos viruses are dead, F-Secure doesn't analyze them but from Win7 SP1. Dos viruses can't affect your computer, thus programs haven't Dos list. Simple Malwarebytes is a old, your Malwarebytes checkes on Dos. You can trust me. Ok other Avast news told a new virus again, but in Finland you get a Norton, F-Secure and McAfee, what I know. I never seen other programs in a store.

And I adore it; it has rescued my PC several times. However, I am conscious that it may be overprotective at times. Nonetheless, I have faith in its judgment.
And I'm not sure why this issue is considered detrimental. If a user responds in the manner of Baronus or Ghost, it should rather assist in persuading others that the site is in good working order.
