Hi,

I just checked TenFourFoxG5-FPR16.1.app.zip and for the G3 for viruses using virustotal.com.
Ikarus found PUA.OSX.KeyLogger. Please check if it is a false positive or a security issue.

BTW: Virustotal also reported that TFF tried to access some akamaiedge.net and google servers. For what are they used for?

Thanks and regards

    Ikarus is notorious for false positive results. It threw this on a prior release as well, but not on the next release, even though I made no changes to the system.

    The Google accesses are probably part of the Safe Browsing component, where periodic updates to the internal list of unsafe hashes are downloaded. In addition, some Mozilla pages use Akamai as a CDN. Neither access sounds unusual to me.
