double post.
There is a virus in the file. Thanks but no thanks.
When dealing with hacking, rooting, jailbreaking etc. the files are often flagged as viruses by virus software. There is good reason for this. They are viruses in some respect (since they find exploits in Android, iOS, etc. and give us access to something the phone doesn’t want us to have access to). The difference is they are “viruses” we control. We WANT them to exploit the system and give us access to whatever we want.
So, next time you are hacking something and your computer says one of the programs is a virus, tell it thanks for the warning and click continue anyway.
