            Bug ID: 44057
           Summary: Gen:Adware.Heur.aq4 at 1meDUAh found in msctfp.dll
           Product: Wine-staging
           Version: 2.21
          Hardware: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: major
          Priority: P2
         Component: -unknown

Bitdefender is reporting an adware infection in the 32-bit version of
msctfp.dll:

Object '/home/jghodd/Downloads/wine-staging2/usr/lib/wine/fakedlls/msctfp.dll'
is infected with 'Gen:Adware.Heur.aq4 at 1meDUAh'
Object
'/home/jghodd/Downloads/wine-staging2/wine-staging-2.21-1-i686.pkg.tar.xz=>(xz
stream)=>usr/lib/wine/fakedlls/msctfp.dll' is infected with
'Gen:Adware.Heur.aq4 at 1meDUAh'

I also checked v2.15, v2.19 and v2.20 and all 4 versions produce this error
when scanned by bitdefender.

I built out 2.20 and 2.21 myself (2.19 was an arch linux build) and have
checked the source code - I'm not seeing anything suspicious so I suspect it's
a false positive, but sourceforge.net uses bitdefender to check all files on
its site and my distro's repositories are located on sourceforge. This is a
problem, because sourceforge is blacklisting this package.

I can probably convince sourceforge to whitelist the package, but this will
continue to be an ongoing issue when newer versions are uploaded to the site.
