I've never encountered any issues before, so I thought I'd scan the file for a virus. I uploaded it to virus total which indicated it is "probably harmless". The only indication otherwise is Antiy-AVL Trojan/Win32.SGeneric, which is probably a false positive. One of the 53 systems used to scan for viruses is Sophos, which doesn't detect anything.
I have no reason to believe DNS Bench is a bot net, so this appears to be a false positive. Has anyone ever used DNS Bench or have any comments on this?
