    Hello, 
    Recently I've bought WordPress Theme Aina from your Envato site

    The problem is that I can't download the theme because Windows Defender stops the download with virus warming "TrojanDownloader:JS/Jasobfus.B!ml"  into zip file
    " hemeforest-21779807-aina-minimal-photography-and-portfolio-wordpress-theme.zip->aina.zip->aina/includes/plugin-packages/uxbarn-portfolio_1.2.3.zip->uxbarn-portfolio/css/FontAwesome/js/custom.modernizr.js "

    Obviously there is a problem with file and I would like a refund.

    Regards,
    Hristo Georgiev

    Hello,

    Please first let me explain:

    This kind of strange issue just happened to our themes recently. It seems some anti-virus software reports that some minified JavaScript files in the theme package are suspicious.

    The "custom.modernizr.js" file you saw in your anti-virus software is just a minified JavaScript file of the Modernizr script that is used for coding features. There is no harm at all.

    For more info about Modernizr, please see: https://modernizr.com/

    The detection was obviously a false positive. I can assure you that the package is safe.

    As a reference, here is another test with virustotal.com and the Aina theme package passed all the tests: https://www.virustotal.com/#/file/70859dd2709ba6984a257f5a4f7a01a115535de2805e87d4fa1233d612cbc08c/detection

    However, I will try to "unminify" that JavaScript file and send you with the updated package in my next private reply. Please try and let me know if it works for you.

    Regards,
    Paul

    Hi

    Thank you for your fast reaction.

    The Updated package is OK.

    My research also makes me think this was a false alarm, because since yesterday I scanned  the zip with online VirusTotal  and it was Ok. I'm not JavaScript dev and i wasn't able to verify that this file is indeed minified Modernizr lib. At least i could read some JS and new I'll take a look of the normal file before I install the theme.


    I'm not sure what version is Windows Defender but my Windows 10 is version 1709 (Fall Creators i suppose) i haven't installed April update yet (all other things should be up to date).

    Thank you once again. Your work looks really good.

    Hi,

    Just wanted to let you know that this also happened to me with the Finnik template. Windows 10 defender latest update bloks the files from dowloading. I can bypass this myself by temporally  turning off defender and downloading this. 

    Greetings,

    Martin

    Hi Martin!

    Thanks for your feedback! Would you please tell me a bit more details about which files did your Windows Defender detect? Was it also the "custom.modernizr.js" file of the portfolio plugin?

    Best,
    Paul

    Hi Paul,

    Unfortunately windows defender doesn't let me see this, it just cancels the download. On macOS there is no problem at all, so I installed it that way :).
