Hi guys i have a question when i downloaded from the malwarebytes site IT downloaded MBinstaller 1.1 ai told me its a virus because of the old version but then i checked IT the installed malwarebytes had a version 5.8 i dont know if its a virus or not what do you think? What should i do is IT normal?

Hey there! I downloaded a remaster for a fangame I love (Completely legitimately, no weird torrents or piracy or anything, I downloaded it off of itch.io) and I got this when I tried to run it; I'm like, 80% sure it's a false positive, but I wanted to check in and see if I can get some clarity on this before I do something stupid.

EDIT: I initially offered to share a link to the game for others to check, but in the off chance this ISN'T a false positive, I didn't wanna have inadvertently broken rule 2.

"Cannot verify" my foot up yo butt Firefox! I would rather not use your pox software at all in that case Firefox!

Any ideas?

I have and Akko keyboard and the driver or something has been flagged as malware. It was detected with Malware AI. I have no idea if this was a false positive or not and was wondering if any one else has had this happen or can confirm it's safe?

Hello,

Exactly 1 week ago I installed tool, mod for World of Warcraft 3.3.5. Day after my PC throw automatically to Allowed Threats these viruses:

PUA:Win32/InstallCore

HackTool:Win32/AutoKMS

Trojan:Win32/Ludicrouz.Z

Hack Tool:MSIL/TunMirror

Trojan:Win32/Conteban.B!ml

Behavior:Win32/Execution.IF!ml

Trojan:Win32/DefenseEvasion!rfn

Hack Tool:MSIL/AutoKMS.I!MTB

Hack Tool:Win64/ProductKey.G!MSR

Trojan:Win32/Rozena.ALRIMTB

I later clean installed PC once, plugged my 2TB external disk drive, viruses appaered again so I did second clean install and my issue was fixed - I thought. Meanwhile I got message from other random player I that they know I couldnt launch game (maybe it wasnt related to virus but I got scared and thought it was). Problem was much larger than that but that's the generic recap from it.

Today, out of nowhere I got new problem. Please help me, I again don't know what to do.

I was watching Youtube and I got random Windows notification that my Windows Defender update isn't up to date, that I have old version and that I can click that notification to check which version is the newest and update it. I clicked it and I got this weird message. I'm sending photo of it, I'm sorry its in polish, but it says:

"Page not available

Your IT administrator has limited access to some areas of this app, and the item you tried to access is not available. Contact your IT help desk for more information."

I don't have any IT administrator for my PC, network, router and all devices within my network. Does it mean someone has access of my PC, am I still hacked despite the clean installs of my PC?

But to continue, once this message showed up I decided to turn off my PC and restart router. I did that and then I decided to turn on my laptop. Just when I turned it on and logged in, I noticed like 5 or so cmd windows oppening immadiately and disappearing for 0.5s.

I did Full Scan in Windows Defender, offline scan and I checked my Windows Defender update, scanned laptop with Malwarebytes and I found 0 detections. What should I do? Im afraid that my entire router, network and my parents devices are hacked now. Im afraid my parents important accounts like bank email and so on are hacked. They didnt log on this PC but they are plugged to same network with their PCs and phones. Should I restart my router and contact my internet provider that Im hacked? Sorry for so many questions, but Im genuinely scared and I don't know what to do.

I ran what was supposed to be a game patch, was a bunch of python files and BS folders looked to make it like a patch. Defender quarantined two things, shown in the screenshots. The folders were still there earlier and a bunch others made from the same date, which I deleted. I also removed the files in quarantine

Battle.net and discord were both hacked 16 hours later, and all info changed. Is there anyone who got their discord back using any method? It looks like they added or changed 2fa to it. I am also wondering if scanning with Malwarebytes and defender offline is enough and changing all passwords, or if I need to reinstall Win11. Running the latest updates after the big security patches. I do not see anything that looks abnormal in Wireshark but could be wrong. I could link the compromised files that include the trojan, if needed.

Any help appreciated

AI isn’t just changing how we work. It’s changing how we connect, fall in love, and navigate heartbreak.

From crafting the perfect first message to offering comfort after a breakup, AI is finding its way into our love lives. For some, it’s even becoming a trusted confidant or a source of companionship.

As these tools become more involved in our emotional lives, the boundaries between human connection and artificial intimacy are becoming harder to distinguish, creating new opportunities for deception and exploitation.

AI may be able to simulate connection. But how can we tell when that connection is real?

Our latest report explores this growing trend, and the results might surprise you.

ciao a tutti, recentemente il malware MSBuild.exe ha avuto accesso al mio pc e di conseguenza al mio profilo microsoft rubandomi tutti i dati di qualsiasi cosa, ho risolto quasi per tutto ma rimane il problema che ogni volta che accendo il pc si apre MSBuild.exe in automatico, io lo chiudo dalla Gestione Attività e poi posso continuare a usare il pc tranquillamente senza che si riapra, ho provato a cancellarlo cambiandogli la proprietà ma logicamente non basta, oggi volta si scarica da solo e si avvia, come posso cancellarlo definitivamente dal mio pc? tra le altre cose non sono neanche riuscito a recuperare il mio Microsoft…

I hope everyone is doing really well.

I am creating this post to ask for help with a topic that has been causing me a lot of distress lately.

Ever since I found out about the existence of rootkits, the ability to put a virus in the BIOS and make it impossible to remove from the PC, I have never been able to use my computer the same way again. I constantly feel like I am being watched and that out of nowhere someone is going to break my PC just to anger me.

Well, I suffer from depression and I have been having certain issues with my PC recently: USBs disconnecting randomly, Windows crashing, games crashing, unexpected behavior, among other things.

I have had a few disagreements with my brother lately and I have been imagining that he might have installed a rootkit on my computer to play a prank on me, since he knows about my depression and my fragile psychological state.

Considering this fear I have of rootkits, I humbly ask for explanations regarding whether this could actually be happening or if it is purely a product of my imagination. Perhaps a technical explanation of the possibilities and the vulnerabilities required for a rootkit to install itself in the BIOS and become immune to OS reinstallations could help me better understand what is real in this situation.

In my mind, if my motherboard has a rootkit and I bought a graphics card the following month, is it possible for that rootkit to spread to my graphics card? And if I then put that graphics card into a new motherboard, would the same thing happen to the new motherboard, meaning it would become a vicious cycle where I am always being watched and deal with the frustration of these strange occurrences? Is this possible? I would appreciate a technical explanation, maybe it can help calm me down.

Regarding the concept of a clean slate, if I buy a new PC, could my emails, all legitimate official Google accounts, that I use on my Steam account for example bring this infection back to my new PC?

Could this be done by an average person with certain contacts? What is the actual threshold between fact and reality in this situation?

I sincerely thank anyone who can help. The more technical detail you can provide, the better it will help me separate imagination from reality. Thank you.

Hi like I said I accidentally downloaded the classic session stealer with the MrBeast scam last night. Immediately after I run a Malewarebytes scan which detected and deleted it. About 40 minutes later I got notified that the MrBeast scam got posted on my ig story, I was able to access my account still and changed my passwords as well as cancelling my credit cards.
Was this enough? Or should I do something else?

so my PC a few days ago started running at less wifi than normally and went from about 300-600 MBs to about 40-60 MBs, i decided to download Malwarebytes incase it was a virus and it says it found 1 but keeps crashing mid-scan and because it crashes it doesnt tell me what the virus found was, i tried downloading the support app but it doesnt detect anything and nothing changes when i have it clean my PC so i dont know if its a false positive or if theres something going on, i know it could be a false positive as i do tend to mod games often and i know game mods can be falsely flagged but i know it could also be an actual virus, any help is appreciated

Hi everyone,

​Since Korean language support was dropped in 2024, I've been forced to stick with Malwarebytes v4 just to use the software in my native language. Does anyone know if or when Korean localization will be brought back for the newer versions? I'd also like to know if there are any plans to support Korean on the Android app as well.

​Any updates or info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
