Hi dtln. I downloaded and rescanned the 7.10 Windows zip (6b564904d3cf5189e8370c6126f73e72c0b646ac6a7cc2a434c00b92506f1059) in VirusTotal and see 0 AV engines reporting anything in the zip as malware. I do see that CRDF is reporting installers for a couple of our Beats as malicious, though. I will initiate a FP report with them in hopes that they will fix the FP. I assure you the zip file is safe.
