Good work, is it the PDF file that's showing as unsafe?

According to VirusTotal the PDF file is clean.

I'm not saying it is a definite problem, just that it was flagged. After download to the desktop, I tried to open it and it was flagged. I then tried to open it and it opened in the Sumatra PDF program that then still doesn't open and provides a link within the PDF (see screenie) clicking on the link takes you to https://unilik.pro/documents/Profession ... niques.pif. It is at that point that Bitdefender flags it as unsafe. I went no further and posted my warning. Make of that what you will but when a PDF document doesn't act normally my Spidey senses are heightened.

I only use VirusTotal (maybe it's dangerous). ;)
When detecting with different antivirus programs,
there could always be some false positives
(and some missed malware).

EDIT: oops, sorry, when loading the file
one software displays a threat, you were right!

I don't think it was the poster that was at fault, it may be the software / website they used to create the PDF. As soon as you try to access the base site, the unsafe message appears. (.pdf are not ,pif files). The https://unilik.pro itself is the problem but still have no idea how that was embedded in a PDF file.

EDIT: I just checked rumans other pdf files posted here post1295566117.html#p1295566117 and they are clean.

It looks so...
Anyway, the absolute majority of mq4 / ex4 files on the FS site are clean.
