Mini-Tool Partition Wizard Riskware?

Mini tool is up to date and for the last 2-3 times I ran it, Malware Bytes is reporting Malicious Website, Cateroty:Riskware from them. False positive I hope.

Everybody is getting it. FP. It's checking for updates and MBAM is grouchy.

I hate it when "MBAM is grouchy"

Received this reply today: False Positive.
Hi,

Much appreciated for your feedback.
We double checked this issue, it is a false positive. Actually, the domain (tracking.minitool.com) is only used to track program's installation. It is harmless to your computer and system, please rest assured.


Best Regards.

Hi there
Not sure why partitioning software would need to track "Domains" -- and even if it did surely it would be a 1 time operation to check the program is being installed from the correct site and then it should delete itself from your computer.

I've never seen this type of thing say when downloading from Adobe or the BBC for example so I'm mystified as to why it's even there in the first place.

In any case I've given up on that tool - there are better ones out there .

Cheers
