AutoHotKey False Positive?

[SPG]

I just recently downloaded and installed AutoHotKey, which can help remap keys and automate tedious tasks on Windows. It is open source and appears to be a completely legitimate program.

I believe MBAM gave me a false positive. Here is the log (ran in Dev mode):

The file in question is attached as a ZIP.

I did a search for "AutoHotKey" on these forums. Although I found one guy who used it and some malware that "incorporates" it as some sort of component, there does not seem to be a case of someone downloading the real program for everyday purposes and then getting an MBAM warning.

Thank you for reporting this. It should be fixed in the next update.

The new Malwarebytes free version (1.51.2.1300) says this is a trojan:

C:\Program Files\AutoHotkey\Compiler\AutoHotkeySC.bin

What I have currently installed is:

AutoHotkey 1.0.48.05

http://www.autohotkey.com/changelog/

I think it's a false positive. I've had this program installed for a while, and nothing has ever been detected.

The new Malwarebytes free version icon in Task Bar also has a number by it, 33591187 ... that seems different.

I did the

Run \ mbam.exe /developer

I set the suspected trojan to Ignore, went to Main Menu, and it said if I did that, I'd lose the log ... there was no other way to get out of it - so I don't see how to get the log file to post here.

I don't have WinZip, should I just upload the .bin file? It's only 412 KB.

Thank you for reporting this. No need for a sample. I have a copy of said file. It shall be fixed in the next update.
