• Emsisoft (Emergency Kit): Gen:Variant.Adware.Yogi.1551

Why this verdict

The suspicious score of 65/100 is the fusion of 3 weighted signals:

• Kaspersky (KVRT) flagged Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Sysn.dnqx (rule Trojan-Dropper.Win32.Sysn.dnqx) - engine signal, weight 0.55, confidence 0.85
• Detect It Easy (packer/type) flagged DIE:Microsoft Linker (rule DIE:Microsoft Linker) - engine signal, weight 0.35, confidence 0.70
• Packing/obfuscation: Microsoft Linker - static signal, weight 0.25, confidence 0.55
