For the record this file was created by Otis and hes pretty well known within the Modding/reshade community. You can Even download his shaders within the Reshade.me Software Itself.

I've used several of his camera tools and shaders in the past but never had an issue until I download the monster hunter World one.

His response to someone asking why it's flagged as a tojan:

"Yes, it's a false positive. Some virusscanners use machine learning to detect patterns (like 'this code injects another dll into a process' or 'this code changes a process') and what my code does to change the running game code to inject the camera logic is sadly what they trip over."

While I trust Otis, I do know that human's can make mistakes but I don't want to be on the receiving end of a terrible one.

Just looking for a secondary opinion on this because I'm not the most educated on viruses in general.

Here’s a link to what I’m referring to: https://www.yahoo.com/subscriptions/products/yahoo-plus-secure?ncid=mbr_ryhacqnav00000010

Is there any difference to regular McAfee and Yahoo!+ Secure with a password manager?

Self explanatory post title. I use Anti Spy Detector - Spyware on my Android device, and it picked up Facebook as a virus due to it's permissions. I also use MalwareBytes and BitDefender, but neither of those picked it up. What could have happened here? I downloaded the app from the play store, and this has never happened before. Thanks all.

I have been using the same hard drive since i was a teenages (10+ years) and i know my computer is comprimised since i havent always been so careful what i download from the internet.

I installed Adobe and they included this garbage. When I try to uninstall it I get this. This just happened to both my personal and work computer in the same day SMH. I have a 4k monitor that I scaled the display from 150% to 100% and kept lowering the resolution and still nothing.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I reacently downloaded a bunch of custom content for the sims 4 and i knew that i probably got some sort of malware, so i did a full scan on defender and it had found a trojan:win32/wacatac.B!ml on my chrome cache file. So this wasn't new for me because i already had this sort of problem before i reformat my computer for other problems. So i lost all my mods and cc so i reinstalled them and now i had found the trojan once again once i did a full scan. I placed it in quarantine and i deleted the folders and unistalled chrome, i used adwcleaner and it didn't find anything and even defender now, am i safe or? And in a way can the trojan affect my phone if i had it sync?

I downloaded a file which had an application called “School Project” now I have a hacker with access to my pc and personal details asking for $50 ransom. Also I have 2 neshta viruses detected which I quarantined does anybody know how I can fix this?

I was looking for some info related to a video game in reddit and i follow a link suggested by an user, then i check and that was not the official link site or at least not the one that it usually shows , the site never loads , so i get suspicious and decide to analyze, to check all the scan seems clean, except filescan.io that shows unknown, and one ip adress shows in filescan is this which is flagged as malicious https://www.virustotal.com/gui/ip-address/151.139.128.10/community, i would be gratefully if you help me checking the links:

so sometimes my computer turns on and off at night and i might be suspecting a RAT (remote access trojan) so because im not that good at software stuff, can RAT programs do that or am i tripping?

Do not visit ! But has anyone seen this? The website is instantly flagged by malwarebytes and my mate stupidly ignored it and it took him to many shady awdare sites. Avoid it and use MEGA instead if you need

Such a shame that this once cool site has gone so downhill

Anybody else got this problem? Is it safe to release the Epic Launcher out of the quarantine?

Up to now I've been content with relying on Windows Defender/Firewall etc to protect me.

Two days ago I spotted something odd, with my hands away from the mouse/keyboard (I was playing on my phone) I looked up and noticed the application that was full screen started to minimise then reversed, like it reduced in size by about 5% then instantly went back to full. Thinking it was odd, a ran a full scan and it's picked up a Severe threat found:

Trojan:Win32/Leonem

Affected items: file: C:\Users\Default\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Windows\InetHelper\cleaner.exe

I don't want to make any mistakes here so what should my next steps be exactly?

Well I was check a website in virustotal and it redirected me to this result instead.

https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/95bd007cef42ed8ad73f3ce1de2f2e0da1ae2965e7a36884a03e58fb22f5b617/summary

Why is that? Anyone knows?

I tried to find out which app is doing this, they came up in the download folder. My cell phone is a Xiaomi and is completely up to date. The antivirus I tested did not recognize viruses

Was exploring some malware websites with my friends on a VM and VPN and we found a real McAfee website used to scare naive users into purchasing their products. It forces you to turn on notifications and when you actually click on it, you are prompted to purchase McAfee? It redirects to you the real website with real payment processors.

Is this a real tactic to scare users into buying their "antivirus", or is it some sort of affiliate marketing garbo?

Does my device have a virus if while I am using an app (not google), I get a scam amazon popup ad on google?

I recently transitioned from Norton to a trial of Bitdefender. I like it in general but its slowing down folders containing media for my job such as videos or even just photos. I turned off Bit to test it out and folders that took 5 seconds to load were now instant. For the life of me I can't find a setting to ignore specific files or folders. Does this exist or should I switch to another (Something not hosted by russians)

Has anybody played with any OS EDRs?
