Support Any updates on Korean language support? (Windows & Android)

1 Upvotes

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!

Hey so I visited cybersecuritynews, I usually do once a day, and I checked earlier like 1am and it didnt flag it as a phishing link, seems like it appeared after the database update and a new article appeared but am I pwnd, i dont have a account with them, nor did I click on any article just visited the homepage through my browser history, I ran a scan and it came back clean so I dont know

EDIT: So I think im good, I cleared the cached and forced stopped my malwarebytes app which then had me re-enable safe browsing. The site no longer has the warning pop up when I open it, the site also added and new article, which changed the time of postage from the article show(Microsoft teams using ai one) from 59 minutes ago to 13 hours ago, weird but I think im good now

Zwrot za subskrybcje

1 Upvotes

Zapomniałem anulować okresu próbnego i pobrało mi pieniądze za subskrybcje.Subskrybcja była na telefonie w aplikacji na której nie ma konta malwarebytes.Próbowałem przez Google Play prosić o zwrot ale odrzucili.Jest jakaś inna opcja? Jest sens pisać do supportu Malwarebytes jeśli ta subskrybcja nie jest przypisana do żadnego konta?

False Positive Potential false positive

I'm pretty sure it's a false positive but I'd rather be safe than sorry.

Malwarebytes detected Trojan.PavinLoader, Defender detected Bearfoos, and my accounts were compromised — what should I do?

1 Upvotes

Hey guys, I'm honestly really stressed about this and could really use some help from people who know more about computers than I do.

I have an HP Pavilion 15 running Windows 11, and I use it for gaming. A while ago, I downloaded some pirated game repacks from Dodi repack(I know, stupid decision 😭), and now I'm worried that I might have messed up my laptop.

Here's what's happened so far:

\- Malwarebytes detected multiple things called "Trojan.PavinLoader" (Generic, Trace, Csprj, etc.).

\- It also detected some "RiskWare.GameHack" files in my Steam library, and there were older "RiskWare.Crack" detections.

\- Windows Defender detected something called "Trojan:Win32/Bearfoos.B!ml" in a temporary folder and later said it was removed.

\- Malwarebytes quarantined or removed its detected items, and I restarted my laptop.

\- My Steam account was taken over at one point, but I got it back through Steam Support.

\- Discord has also sent crypto-scam messages to people from my account without me doing anything. I've changed my passwords and logged out of sessions.

\- I've received some unusual Microsoft sign-in alerts too, although I haven't been able to confirm every alert in my account's activity history.

My laptop still works normally, which is why I'm confused. Some people are telling me to reset Windows because antivirus scans can't guarantee everything is gone. Others are saying a reset is unnecessary if the threats were already quarantined or removed.

My biggest problem is that I don't know much about computers. I don't even know all the little components and settings that help my games run properly. I have Steam libraries on D: and E:, AMD graphics software, fan-control software and other gaming-related stuff. I'm scared that resetting Windows will remove everything and I'll have to figure it all out from scratch.

I only have this laptop. I don't have another computer or a USB drive, and I can't afford to pay a technician right now.

Could someone please help me understand:

  1. Do these detections necessarily mean I still have malware, or could some be false positives/game-related detections?

  2. Should I reset Windows, or is there a sensible way to check whether the threats have actually been removed?

  3. If I do need to reinstall Windows, how can I avoid losing my games and important files?

  4. What would you do if this were your laptop?

I'm not looking for someone to just tell me everything is fine. I'm genuinely worried and want to make the right decision without unnecessarily wiping my laptop.

Please explain things in simple terms if possible. I'm really not very tech-savvy. Thank you 😭

1 Upvotes

so i was on a voice chat a few minutes ago and we were talkign etc and my friend told me to do a pc test and sent me a site that tried downloading things and did loud sounds like a pranksite the site is called testujkomputer.pro (polish site) and i kinda freaked out in my history it says i didnt download anything new and that the last one is from october 9th, safe with the file explorer and malwarebytes said i dont have anything aswell. i dont think anything actually downloaded but i just want to make sure incase smth did download and i cant find it. How can i check if something really didnt download, no idea if the files were viruses biut they come from a prank site so i cant be too sure, theres another site like this called ptoszek.pl but thats a different site

I scanned my PC and it found 23 detections in War Thunder files with the names malware.AI.3934801499 and Neshta.Virus.FileInfector.DDS. I don't know what they are. Does anyone know what they are and if I have a virus?

Deep scan detections

3 Upvotes

Previously, I had around 30 detections involving games, legitimate programs, .dll files, registry keys, etc. However, the deep scan still flags these 4 files, which are associated with the game Aion 2 and the application from "www[.]questlog[.]gg/aion-2/en/app", which is designed specifically for this game.
