Zoobam - 37% Detection Rate *

Did you just find a download or a file on your computer that has been digitally signed by Zoobam? Some of the security products refers to the detected files as Application.Bundler.KJ and PUP.Optional.DownloadAdmin. The detection rate for the Zoobam files collected here is 37%. Please read on for more details.

You will probably see Zoobam when double-clicking to run the file. The publisher name is then displayed as the "Verified publisher" in the UAC dialog as the screenshot shows:

  3. Click the Digital Signatures tab
  4. Click on the View Certificate button

Here's a screenshot of a file signed by Zoobam:

As you can see in the screenshot above, Windows reports that "This digital signature is OK". This implies that the file has been published by Zoobam and that no one has tampered with the file.

If you click the View Certificate button shown in the screenshot above, you can examine all the details of the certificate, such as when it was issued, who issued the certificate, how long it is valid, etc. You can also view the address for Zoobam, such as the street name, city and country.

Go Daddy Secure Certificate Authority - G2 has issued the Zoobam certificates. You can also examine the details of the issuer by clicking the View Certificate button shown in the screencap above.
