I've been looking for a free jpeg repair-program, I found this one but Malwarebytes blocks it and the last comment on YouTube is "virus".

I suggest you ask at Malwarebytes why they label the program as malware. I'm moving this

to the Graphics Design and Photo Editing forum.

It is blocked by Malwarebytes Browser Guard because it is hosted with http and not https. It will do that with all downloads hosted http.

Website blocked due to a suspicious download

Download blocked: http://anderspedersen.net/jpegrepair/JRS.zip

 

Virus total is clean.

Free tools never comes with any commitment. You can use this tool but it will come with some circumstances. I suggest go for any professional JPEG Repair tool like Stellar or Wondershare.
