Hey all, just wanted to let the community know that the current 'tr.apk' download from Towelroot.com (filesize 103003 bytes, md5 of 59193b68a8a2a9a2e6fc898df81e491b) trips my ClamScan virus scanner. I got impatient trying to get it to download on my phone via Firefox, so I downloaded it via my desktop and emailed it to myself. I happen to run a virus scanner on all incoming mail, and it went crazy with this message: A virus was found: Andr.Exploit.Ratc Scanner detecting a virus: ClamAV-clamscan Content type: Virus Internal reference code for the message is 31908-19/qifk-moTWpxp First upstream SMTP client IP address: [173.160.x.x] 173-160-x-x-Washington.hfc.comcastbusiness.net According to a 'Received:' trace, the message apparently originated at: [173.160.x.x], laws-mbp.mydomain.lan 173-160-x-x-Washington.hfc.comcastbusiness.net [173.160.x.x] Return-Path: <law@mydomain.org> From: Lee Whalen <law@mydomain.org> Message-ID: <539DF04C.8000905@mydomain.org> Subject: tr The message has been quarantined as: q/virus-qifk-moTWpxp The message WAS NOT relayed to: <law@mydomain.org>: 250 2.7.0 Ok, discarded, id=31908-19 - INFECTED: Andr.Exploit.Ratc Virus scanner output: p008: OK p009: OK p006: OK p012: Andr.Exploit.Ratc FOUND p004: OK p011: OK p010: OK p005: OK p007: OK p001: OK Perhaps that's part of the exploit route, but I'm personally going to hold off on installing this APK until I learn more. If anyone could shed some light on this, that'd be super. I'm EXTREMELY eager to root my S5, and hope to get this straightened out soon!
