Hi,
I downloaded sbbs318b from synchro.net and Windows 10 is reporting it as a Trojan Win32/Zpevdo.B Is it safe?. Never had this issue before.

It's safe. I had Windows reporting a bunch of false positives when I was building and testing the v3.18b setup.exe. It seems their malware scanning is not so great these days.

I was going to say false positives also due to ms virus scanner. I know you’d never put a real virus in your bbs because it’s open source.

That’s a first. Microsoft treats everything non-ms a virus it seems. It’s their new system now. They don’t like foreign programs.

That hasn't been my experience. Also, an OS wouldn't be very popular without 3rd-party developers developing software for it..

Do you remember F-Prot in the olden days? I used to get the same problem with that one too.

I still use f-prot on my *nix systems

I thought F-Prot went down many years ago. Did someone revive it?

It didn't "go down", however, End Of Sales date was Aug 1, 2020 and End Of Life is July 31, 2021. Perhaps F-Prot for Winbloz Sales ended a while ago but they are still providing signature updates on my *.deb. I'll have to check into that further. Thanks for reminding me!

Sorry, I didn't see a specific platform version refernce. I suppose 'in the olden days' could have been a clue, but, ya, anyway ... so, in the NOW, EOL for F-Prot is 07/31/20. Ya, just like SBBS, software devs moved on from DOS a looooooong time ago and is not likely to enter anyone's mind unless they are trying to get 16bit DOS doors running under something other than DOS (ie: qemu, freeDos, etc).

DOS 6.22 was my favourite OS. It was quick to install and had a bbs running within minutes.

I assume you mean MS-DOS 6.22? There were other companies that made DOS operati ng systems, not all of which had a 6.22 version.
