Report to your anti-virus company, it is a false positive.

All's well. Just received confirmation -
BitDefender has confirmed that the false positive has been fixed.

Hi,

I just updated my copy of dBpoweramp to Release 15.1 and Emsisoft Internet Security detected the Gen:Variant.Symm.47701 (B) malware in the Graphic Equaliser.dll file.

Please advise. Thanks.

Norton has confirmed it was a false alarm and has updated its definitions.

I've noticed Norton flagging a lot of false positives lately.

I have informed Norton Symantec just now.

Just to double check I uploaded that file to:

https://www.virustotal.com

They do an online scan against 48 of the top virus checkers (Norton was not in that list), they all came back negative.

Report it to Norton, there is no virus in this file (it was compiled today on a clean system, if it had a virus, the other 10 .exes including dBpoweramp would have also). It is a false positive.

Without this file you will not be able to get AMG metadata in CD Ripper for the 64 bit version.

I just tried to install v15, and my Norton AV software reported a high risk threat as detailed below.
