Bitdefender is reporting file infected with Gen: Variant.Graftor.660671 on Opera GX installation. I had no problem installing Opera classic.

@leodutra Did you report the problem to Bitdefender, so they can fix it?

@leocg And the problem would be Bitdefender?

@leodutra Most probably, yes, since it looks like a false positive.

This taking in consideration that you downloaded Opera from the official site.

@leocg This is a false positive. I have Trend Macro security suite installed in my office and it did not detect any threat from the installation file, whereas the Butdefender at my home reports an infection. I just ignored the warning by Bitdefender, and installed the browser.

I had a bad reputation with Bitdefender, They blocked a lot of stuff including websites that I didn't even ask to be banned if I was you, It's best to get a different antivirus
