Hello:
Just downloaded the Mullvad browser from their website and as I always do, ran it through virustotal. Surprisingly, it returned three postive malware results.
I’m hoping to use the browser and have been looking for a clean download source; is there a Mullvad ftp server available for downloading?
The website has two download sources, themselves and Github. Plus it has GPG signatures so you can check the authenticity of the downloads.
So verify the download, then you’ll know.
Learn to verify with signatures.
Thanks. Upvoted for username.
Unfortunately the github page takes me to the site I downloaded the questionable download from.
We host it on:
- cdn dot mullvad dot net
- Github releases
The browser is also available in source code form if you wish to build it yourself:
The Tor Project develop and build it in collaboration with us at Mullvad, we host it on our CDN after it has successfully been built reproducibly and signed.

Further information: contact our Support Team by email (support at mullvadvpn dot net)
Not a questionable download, the AVs that flagged it are just trash.
