Hi there,

 

Norton found "suspicious.cloud.5" in the KVirc application.  I talked to the Devs of KVIRC and they said they dont know about it and have no idea that it was there. its not found in the installer as it is in the executable.

We can't tell by looking at the name of the file.  Submitting it will allow Symantec to look at the file itself.  They will advise you if it is malicious or not.
