Q: iTunes Trojan while updating to iTunes 12.5.1

Where did you download the update from?

What anti-virus software are you using?

yes, if you are downloading iTunes from the App Store the detection your AV is providing is called a false positive.

and as an added bonus can lead to serious problems which are already inherent with Mac Anti-Virus solutions which have been well documented on this forum.

Remove whatever crapware anti-virus snake oil you hopefully never had to pay for because I smack a hard drive with a hammer for $19.95 and get the same result on a mac.

I believe we're in iTunes for Windows territory, which rules out the Mac app store as the download source.

You're welcome.

Thanks for the follow up, hopefully Webroot will patch their signatures quickly.
