Virus within the map generated by map unprotector?

A few weeks ago a friend of mine asked me if I can unlock this EUD map. After renaming it and trying to open it with several unprotectors I ended up getting https://www.mediafire.com/file/xd7nhxgkj591ttb/asd.scx/file
this[/url] file (since it's been a while since then, I think this map was generated by SMC 2.86, but it was still protected, I assume). I then tried to open it with ScmDraft2 and Chkdraft, but it wouldn't work.

Seeing that it's not working, I took a look at it using Ladik's MPQ Editor (LME), this time noticing a file called "File00000002.exe", as seen here:



, I said to myself "Well, that's strange! I have never seen an exe within a map!", so I hit "View File" in LME. In the first line I noticed "UpackByDwing", as seen here:



, which I assumed it was a packer, but after googling it, it came up more as being a packer used for viruses. Seeing this. I decided to submit "File00000002.exe" to virustotal, and the results came in as being a virus.

I was still curious if the map would still run in Starcraft, so I fired up the game in a sandbox, and a second later after the map started I got this error:



Is this indeed a virus or is just a false positive? Also, if it's not a virus, do packers usually show up as viruses to antiviruses? I'm asking this because I've read in the past that it was possible to get viruses into maps by means of EUD, for SC 1.16.1. I think I read about it here, on staredit. I'm also aware that SC:R runs EUD within a sandbox, and that certain type of EUDs were prohibited.



None.

Vrael -- It is, and I could definitely use a company with a commitment to flexibility, quality, and customer satisfaction to provide effective solutions to dampness and humidity in my urban environment.

sounds like moisture control is often a pressing concern in your city

Vrael -- Maybe here on the StarEdit Network I could look through the Forums for some Introductions to people who care about the Topics of Dehumidifiers and Carpet Cleaning?
