Here is Virustotal report of that file. Maybe I should contact to some of the antivirus companies, that they should take these wallet stealing programs seriously!

look there is an .exe file posted by a stranger on the internet, in a forum where every 2nd thread is a scam in the making. let's download and run it!
Oh thank you! You are so helpfull and kind.
Not everybody know that you cannot rely on Virustotal and that this forum is full of scammers! That is why I opened this thread, to warn people!

Ok, I managed to save everything else than my precious LTC. The guy could have just asked I would have bought him one pint of beer instead 
Well at least I have learned that you cannot trust even the Virustotal. Maybe I should contact to some of the antivirus companies that they should take these wallet stealers seriously as none of them warned anything!

Damn scammers everywhere 
May 09, 2014, 06:49:28 AM
stop begging. nobody who's not a potato would have used this program.
I am not begging anything, damn it! I could have kept this info by myself! Thats the way people normally do, because nobody wants to reveal that they have been stupid! Next time I just will keep the info, if thats the way people here do.
I am a new in this forum, and where I come from people are polight and try to help each other. Looks like that you dont belong to those!

Thanks for warning us about this. I would have downloaded it when it was offered for free, but I was too late, he started charging for downloads before I noticed the thread. Turns out it's a good thing I was too late.
If you appreciate it, please consider a small donation.

when i scanned it with virustotal, it reported 1 red flag
Which antivirus scanner reported the red flag? Trendmicro seems to flag almost everything as a virus, so I would have more faith in one of the other scanners. Someone was complaining that trendmicro even flagged windows system files as a virus a while ago.
i don't remember, if virus total keeps the same order, it was the first one in the list

Who installs unknown software on the same machine they keep wallets? That's just stupid, and that can't be fixed.
I hope OP learned a lesson here.

Yes I learned and I know that it is stupid, so thank you!
All of us are not clever with these things, you know!

when i scanned it with virustotal, it reported 1 red flag
this kind of custom software would never be correctly detected by virus scanners: it's a simple ftp uploader, how a virus scanner can detect that? If that, it would detect as virus too much stuff

It's interesting how the program asks for the electrum wallet password
Basically it declares that this coin creator is a wallet stealer, and asks for a new password
ps: we can ask to drivehq or prowl if they have more details about him
or we can just have fun with his prowl API, sending him thousands of "wallet stolen" notifications to his iphone
