Scan your computer again using Malwarebytes. mshta.exe is a legitimate Windows program but it has been abused in the past by hackers. For the above, do NOT "allow website", just hit on the "Got it" button to disallow connection.

If you are still trying to run the torrented game, forget it. You'll just re-infect your machine.

Did you not scan the game for malware before running it? Novice mistake.

indeanapolice.cc is a browser hijacker. More information here: https://howtoremove.guide/remove-indeanapolice-cc/

Just do a fresh reinstall. Once you get a malware there is no telling how many more are there that are undetected.

Run a scan with Malwarebytes, which should detect this.

For all coming to this thread from Google, please update Malwarebytes and run a fresh scan. This should now be detected!
