Accuracy of VirusTotal's Scans?

>>59361284
Use a modicum of caution with any file. Experienced malware writers run their stuff against VirusTotal to make sure it's not detected. Eventually, heuristics will catch up, but it may be too late.

Here is a list of the programs that were flagged, what service they were flagged by, and what they were flagged for.

Are these safe downloads, or should I be worried? I downloaded all the programs from their parent sites, or from whatever sites the their parent sites recommended if the parent sites didn't have a download option. If neither of those were available I downloaded from download.cnet.com.
I appreciate any help I can get, especially because this craptop provides my only Internet access at the moment.

All the programs I downloaded were recommended by website articles and seemed very legitimate from what little research I did on them.
This list includes all the programs that were flagged by VirusTotal. >>59361830

>>59361830
Most of the programs in the list you posted have been used by me for years.
No need to worry, you have seen it with your eyes being recommended, and they are used by lots of people.
As long as you are not downloading "TeenSexVideo.exe" and you do not click on weird site that tell you how to get sex you are fine.

Hah, thanks, I have always avoided that kind of stuff. I just wanted to be safe and make sure I was in the clear.
One other thing, right after downloading all those programs, my computer slowed down significantly. Not just Internet speed, but overall processing.

>>59362069
Most probably some of the programs are running in the background at startup. If you have Windows 8 or newer you can disable their startup in task manager.

>>59362184
No, I don't think that's it, I only downloaded the program wizards, I haven't actually installed any of the programs yet. Any other plausible possibilities?

>>59361830
don't you see it in results, they all have some kind of malicious things bundled in installer, toolbars and shit

>>59362256
Are you on Windows 8 or newer?
Maybe Windows Defender is fucking around about those executables, check your task manager
In addition to >>59362463, I'd suggest you stay away from such programs that somehow have to bundle in a bunch of baiting partner shit, they're basically adware - you sure you want that?
>download.cnet.com
pure cancer
Sure, some of these programs triggered some spergy antiviruses just by being an executable installer, but if you're curious enough, you could try scanning portable versions of, say, Speccy.
And where did you get that Skype installer from? Their latest web installer from official site is all clean on virustotal

>>59362526
I'm on windows 10. Also, I downloaded Skype from the official page.

>>59362463
I haven't installed any of them yet.

As with all anti-virus it will detect old shit, not new.

VirusTotal is literally what script kiddies use to test their malware before selling it on their epik HackForums
