GTA5: First Consequences of GTA V Malware Mods
16.05.2015, 11:40
Author: Alex

After becoming known that two GTA V mods (Angry Planes and Noclip Mod) included malware, we have already taken our first consequences: From now on, all new uploaded mods are automatically scanned for viruses and the result is displayed directly on GTAinside. We also link the virus scanning report from Virustotal.com. This means that you can get more specific information and gives you the opportunity to make your own opinion about each available download. VirusTotal is working with up to 60 virus scanners and gives you an excellent overview of the all scan results.

Please note: Even if a modification (and especially Scripts and Trainers) has been classified as potentially malicious, this does not automatically mean that it has to be a virus. This is caused by the way how these programs actually work. In this case, please pay also attention to the detection rate: If the ratio is less than 2%, it is most likely a false positive message. Just click on the scan report in order to get more information.

We hope you enjoy this new feature on GTAinside. Happy modding!

Great job Alex, 6 years using this website to download mods never have any virus on it except the gta 5 mod incident this site is safe as always

@Mr. Raspberry Jam: Actually I also ever heard an incident regarding a Grand Theft Auto mod. This is the second time a GTA Mod contains virus. The first incident is a GTA Hood Life Mod that occurs in 2007. Open up google and search for it.
