Thank you so much!

If the archive is not harmful, is it possible to be harmful after the installation (Like if a hidden trojan would be activated after the installation!)? Thank you.

Hi guys, I download PCSX2 (PS2 Emulator) from the official website https://pcsx2.net/ first, I scanned the file with Malwarebytes before I open it and there is no threat detection, after that, I scanned the file with VirusTotal and it gave me one trojan detection! (1 security vendor and no sandboxes flagged this file as malicious). here is the link for the scan result https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/2b18515ff69f3c69899f14b93d3fbe3080e71d0206f470e8f7cd89909eec7439 I read about this trojan and I found this info about it "Trojan-PSW programs are designed to steal user account information such as logins and passwords from infected computers. PSW is an acronym of Password ...". So I was afraid to install it on my computer after I read this. Why didn't Malwarebytes consider it as a threat, or it just a fulse postive from virus total. Please guys can you check this file for me. Thanks in advance, Marwan

Thank you so much.

So, does that mean it is a false positive? are these files safe and not malicious?

Hello Guys, today I scanned my 2 laptop devices, Malwarebytes found 6 various files in Visual Studio related folders named payload.vsix ,and with the full scan Malwarebytes detected another 8 files also in the visual studio related folders named NEWTONSOFT.JSON.DLL is this a trojan or a Potential false positive? in the attachment, you will find the log file. Thanks in advance. NEWTONSOFT.JSON.DLL.txt payload.vsix.txt

Thank you so much, your help is greatly appreciated.

Thanks for all these explanations, So can I launch it without worrying about anything? because google chrome warned me again about it when I went to the website to redownload it (Maybe dangerous). can I ignore that too?

thanks for quick replay, Here is the link https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/537c5fa420d2d4509c8dc72f462d632c1b80b233a03a98359b4e3419bc279ec7/detection

Hi there, Today I bought a little 2D software for Texture dilation, I scanned the software before I launch it was clean but after that, I scanned it with the virus total gave me (1 security vendor flagged this file as malicious) ( was detected by Malwarebytes) so of course I was afraid to launch it. how can I know whether it was a false positive or a real threat? and is it possible to send a private message to one of the staff to check whether it is a false positive or a real threat? Thanks in advance,

Thank you so much.

About the quick scan, it takes from 5 to 20 minutes depends on how much data on my devices, and about the custom (full) scan my devices have about 400 to 750 GB of data. So I understand that a full scan is not that necessary and a quick scan is enough to do the job.

Thank you so much for all these explanations, the custom scan finished within 27 hours.
