Greetings -
I need to convert some AC3 Dolby Digital files to WAV, so I'm following the instructions provided on Codec Central to download the ac3filter_2_6_0b.exe software from
http://www.ac3filter.net/wiki/Download_AC3Filter .
When I go to install this software, my Avast anti-virus software is triggered, indicating the package is infected. Understanding that a lot of freeware triggers a false positive for viruses, I uploaded this file to
https://www.virustotal.com, and 21 different virus scanners detect an adware package inside the AC3Filter package called "OpenCandy".
