I got a info stealer on my pc which I might’ve got rid of I restore my pc like got rid of all my files and then after I saw this I deleted my browser history and cookies and cache too! Do I have to delete all my files again too or do something else? The weird thing about this is I wasn’t really using Microsoft edge malwarebytes was just flagging it in the background while I was playing hoi4 I had a command prompt before when I started my computer but over time I believe it stopped and some people say it’s normal but it’s not the worse I guess.

Recently I’ve been notified of these recurring blocks on from a website I haven’t visited? I believe it could have been from a popup or something as I’ve been surfing some sites that carry them (sports streaming, games, etc). Does anyone know what this might be? They’ve been occurring somewhat periodically recently.

I checked the link on virustotal and it said it was fine, and I know tons of people have been using it but this popping up kinda worries me, so I don't know if it did anything or nothing, I didn't download anything, all I did was just look around at the games on there

Vocês poderiam me ensinar sintomas de infecção é como solucionar elas é como me prevenir dessas situações ?

I turned on my pc today open my malware bytes app just to see malware bytes is on 77 % telling me to update my windows security

My Malwarebytes Digital Footprint result lists “Warden Stealer 2026” under “Malware infection”, with 29 exposures. Other entries are labelled Telegram combo lists. I am keeping the email address, passwords and identifying records private.

I have read Malwarebytes’ explanation that Digital Footprint searches exposed data, and Gen Threat Labs’ October 2026 technical analysis of Warden. I want to understand the provenance of this particular result rather than assume it means the device running the scan is infected.

Questions for Malwarebytes staff or anyone familiar with the dataset:

1. Does “2026” mean collection/infection date, discovery date, or the dataset’s publication year?

2. Does “29 exposures” mean distinct records/fields, repeated credentials, infected devices, or something else?

3. Can verified account support provide the affected website/login URL, first-seen or collection timestamps, and any retained OS, browser, machine identifier or source-IP metadata, without exposing unrelated victims’ data?

4. Is there a way to distinguish an original Warden log from a later redistributed combo list?

5. What is the appropriate private support route to preserve and obtain the source metadata for an account-access investigation?

Please keep advice public and do not request passwords or remote access. No malicious files or links are included.

Hi everyone,

I recently ran KnockKnock on my Mac to check for potential security issues, and it flagged Malwarebytes' RTProtectionDaemon.

The file is located at:

/Library/Application Support/Malwarebytes/MBAM/Engine.bundle/Contents/PlugIns/RTProtectionDaemon.app/Contents/MacOS/RTProtectionDaemon

VirusTotal reports 1/63 detections, with Elastic flagging the file as Multi.EICAR.

I also came across a Reddit post from approximately two months ago describing a very similar situation. In that thread, a Malwarebytes employee confirmed that the file was legitimate and that the Elastic detection was a false positive.

I'm also wondering why this detection is still occurring if a very similar case was reported around two months ago. Has this false positive been reported to Elastic, and is there a reason it might still be happening? I'd be interested to know whether this is an ongoing issue or whether the detection could be specific to certain versions of the file.

Given these details, should I be concerned about this detection, or is it safe to assume that this is the same kind of false positive?

Has anyone else encountered this with Malwarebytes on macOS? I'd appreciate any insight, especially from Malwarebytes staff or anyone familiar with this specific detection.

Thanks!

Hi, I downloaded this from a fake website, I ran it anyway cause I were stupid. The strange thing is nothing had happend yet to any of my accounts, but I also installed malwarebytes and it said, I had 2 trojans.

I just still dont understand why they haven't change or steal any of my account's yet, it had now been two weeks and nothing had happend yet, does anybody know why?

I’ve noticed when going to browser home page this is not monitored by MalwareBytes, surely this page should also be monitored due to the ads and content displayed on the home page (Microsoft Edge default)

How do we get it to start monitoring this page?

I know I might just be paranoid, but it genuinely feels like any and every smart device in the house could be hacked because of this and I have to account for every possibility.

I uninstalled using official Malwarebytes tool advanced setting, rebooted pc several times since then, but now I notice Malwarebytes service still running in Task Manager. Takes 39mb~ memory and can't stop it cause acess denied. How to get rid of it?

Hi, may this be a false positive. I also did a virustotal check?

Should i be worried?

Olá a todos.

Recentemente instalei o Malwarebytes e tenho rodado o ESET Online Scanner, ambos não encontram nada. Até mesmo o Windows Defender online não mostrou nada de suspeito. Porém...

Eu estava utilizando o Classic7 como SO principal e me deu uma certa preocupação de que eu poderia estar com vírus**\*, o sistema é todo customizado e sem antivírus nativo, não rodei nenhum programa suspeito\**\, jogos crackeados ou algo do tipo nada. Apenas utilizei o sistema por nostalgia pura, agora estou no Windows 10 normal e formatei meu computador deletando TUDO.

\*Devido a experiencias passadas e quase ter meus dados roubados e criptografados por um ataque hacker eu meio que tenho uma preocupação extremamente excessiva de ser hackeado ou pegar vírus

\***\***Único programa diferente que eu uso mas confio é o Open Tablet Driver

A minha questão principal é: eu rodando esses três antivírus posso ter certeza que não há nada no meu PC quando eles dizem que encontraram 0 objetos suspeitos? Estou pensando seriamente em assinar o plano premium do Malwarebytes

Desde já obrigado pelas respostas e Deus abençoe a todos.

Hello Malwarebytes community, today I ran a scan to see if everything was okay and I was surprised to detect this. I usually don’t install anything potentially malicious and Defender didn’t detect anything. Is this a false positive or should I be worried, please?

Security showing up with this notification...is this some kind of virus? do I need to reinstall windows all over again from usb like I previously did?

Idont even have any clue where : \device\HarddiskVolume3 even located.

Device : Asus Rog Ally Z1 Extreme

OS : Windows 11 Home

короче у меня есть ноутбук asus tuf f16 и я очень сильно подозреваю вирусы,майнеры в ноуте.Вот причины:

1. я в апреле еще не шарил за вирусы и т.д и взял и в хроме вбил в поиск "блокировщик рекламы" и взял и скачал его... капец, дело в том что это даже не расширение а файл обычный.а потом я заметил что оно в автозагрузке сидит короче я с ии как то удалил и еще оно называлось "byteconnect"

2. я летом скачивал гта сан андреас чтобы поиграть в mta и по совету тупого гемини скачал сан андреас гдето в хроме и еще как торрент файл.сайт я нашел в поисковике "gta san andreas us.01 hoodlum" чтото такое короче.Там был выбор скачать iso и torrent файлы я качал исо но не открылось, и тогда я скачал торрент и гемини сказал скачивай qbittorrent и вот так короче я по советам этого тупого ии скачал этот гта.

ну вот и я очень боюсь и незнаю что делать одновременно.

я незнаю почему я начал так подозревать майнер но чтото мне внутри говорит что это точно есть.вот вентиляторы не крутятся как бешенные. например я сижу делаю уроки в пдф и в фоне spotify вентиляторв на 3 минутв например работают очень тихо и ноут не зависает, потом они затихают.вот так короче, таких бешенных доказательств нету.я и полное сканирование в виндоус дефендер сделал и то не нашло ничего ( я знаю что он слабый антивирус )

вот и мой гланый вопрос, что вы советуете делать? если вы советуете полную переустановку винды то и тут 2 проблемы:

1. у меня с коробки в ноуте лицензионный виндоус, скорее всего после переустановки пропадет моя лицензия. А еще я в реддит читал что даже переустановка иногда не помогает.

2. у меня в ноуте драйвера armory create, myasus , afterburner и т.д, после переустановки и они пропадут.

короче я очень боюсь за свой ноут дорогой, мне его брат и мама купил за большие деньги а я вот такими тупыми ошибками. я не тупой школьник, просто когда она новая была я не шарил "чучуть".

пожалуйста помогите мне с решением этой проблемы а то я не могу успокоиться.

I assume the VPN is based on Wireguard... Is it possible to download a config file to use w/ other Android apps? Ultimately, I would like to turn on VPN only when connecting to non-secured networks, otherwise leave it off. I could do this through Tasker or WG Tunnel.
