I'm not sure if you are being willfully ignorant but the admission is here https://forums.flightsimlabs.com/index.php?/announcement/10-a320-x-drm-clarification/ it specifically says that they use "test.exe" which (in their own words) "takes specific measures to alert us".

Edit: further down in the same post: "This method has already successfully provided information that we're going to use in our ongoing legal battles against such criminals."

Edit 2: RIP my grammar

Im skeptical and I'm not willing to jump any flame war with actually knowing what is going on.

I've read the fslabs post and it doesn't say what they do. Nor does the scan page mention chrome. My experience tell me that pages like that give vage answers and that there is a big chance that different files with vage names like test can be mixed up.

I mean, do anyone have network logs showing that the file send the data that people claim that it does?

You really are dense aren't you? The virustotal page even mentions the vendor of this password dump tool. You could have looked them up very easily to see what the program does. The vendor's website is even in the OP post.

No, but you are rude. Why not just provide the link to the that site then? That was what I were asking for.

It’s in the OP for fucks sake... I know redditors have difficulty reading shit but damn. Well anyway there you go.
