My antivirus flagged DownHoax. Is it a virus?

No. DownHoax is not a virus, trojan, or malware of any kind. Some antivirus programs flag prank software because its behavior mimics suspicious activity (fake download dialogs with questionable URLs), but DownHoax does not actually download anything or connect to the internet. The download includes a SHA-256 hash and a VirusTotal scan link so you can verify its safety yourself.
