As you can see the analyst result is normal. However, their commen is that it is a worm. ???

Can someone please explain what’s going on?

The VirusTotal results definitely look like it’s malicious to me.

Oh… well I guess that it’s not malicious now. I suppose the part I’m still confused about is why there was even the comment there for Worm.

Why add that if the file is safe?
