Zemax DLL flagged as malware by Malwarebytes!  Screen shot attached.

Is the DLL safe, or has it been corrupted?

Hello!

 

I just uploaded the latest version of the file (the one that came with the May and June 2022 releases) to Virustotal and got no detections. Perhaps Malwarebytes needs a virus definition update? What version of Opticstudio do you have?

Hi Mike,

 

Here’s my version of the DLL (fresh from recent update), I’m using it without apparent problem (not a guarantee it is virus-free).

Perhaps you can scan it with your Malwarebytes to see if it also flags it.

Take care,

 

PS: in sending this, I’m realizing I could spread a hazardous file, if it is bad practice let me know and I’ll remove it!
