Hey all, just wanted to let the community know that the current 'tr.apk' download from Towelroot.com (filesize 103003 bytes, md5 of 59193b68a8a2a9a2e6fc898df81e491b) trips my ClamScan virus scanner. I got impatient trying to get it to download on my phone via Firefox, so I downloaded it via my desktop and emailed it to myself. I happen to run a virus scanner on all incoming mail, and it went crazy with this message:
A virus was found: Andr.Exploit.Ratc

Perhaps that's part of the exploit route, but I'm personally going to hold off on installing this APK until I learn more. If anyone could shed some light on this, that'd be super. I'm EXTREMELY eager to root my S5, and hope to get this straightened out soon!
