    Cool, thank you, I was just curious and wanted to make sure. Typically, anything really dangerous almost always returns a .9000 or above... but there are a few that will be somewhere in the suspicious range. I think there have been a couple that even tested safe... but then again, if you compare Ai to other detection methods, from what I have seen, Ai does pretty darn well, especially with zero days and unknown malware. The cool thing is, VoodooAi is going to just keep getting better and better. We could add a whitelisting component to VoodooAi, but I would rather keep it simply pure Ai, that way the user knows VoodooAi's actual assessment of the file.

    I see... yeah, we are close to finding the optimum sensitivity, and suspicious / unsafe thresholds... but hopefully soon we will have it nailed down. Thank you!

    Thank you for testing again! Yeah, VoodooAi is just a very rough POC so that users can test a lot of files at once to demonstrate VoodooAi's capabilities. Maybe soon we can build it out a little more.

    Sorry about that, I never got around to fixing that bug in VoodooAi... hopefully I will have time very soon.

    Hi kees... for the stand alone version of VoodooAi, I believe it is:

    Safe: 0.0000-0.4999
    Suspicious: 0.5000-0.8999
    Unsafe: 0.9000-1.0000

    We should actually be able to adjust the safe threshold to start at 0.600 or so, and maybe even bump up the unsafe threshold a little... I am still trying to find the optimum thresholds. Thank you!

    Thank you mood! Yeah, something like this will work very well, thank you for the suggestion. There are a couple of other options, but this one appears to be the best... I will play around with it and see.

    Yeah, exactly... that is the thing about malware, you just simply never know. The whole idea is that if there are no hits on the blacklist scan and VoodooAi determines that the file is safe, then it is almost 100% for sure safe. But if the blacklist scan has any hits at all, or if VoodooAi is above the safe threshold, there is a chance there is something wrong with that file. If there are a lot of hits on the blacklist or VoodooAi test unsafe, then there is almost certainly something wrong with that file.

    So really the only thing we can do is to make sure that the user is well informed with the blacklist and VoodooAi results... especially as bad as malware is these days ;). Thank you hjlbx!

    Hopefully it is not a concern, but I would certainly check it out to see what is triggering this... you might have a little malware lurking on your system (not to scare you or anything). If you find out what is triggering it, please let me know. And if it happens again, can you please post a screenshot of the prompt? Thank you!

    @VoodooShield OOPS Froze up and had to go to Task Manager to end task and restart from All Programs. What do you advise?

    Thanks!
