  1. Thanks, yes I did enable the "Use expert system algorithms to identify malicious files" setting some time ago. I'm aware this has the potential to generate false positives, however I would like to think that it has the potential to detect a zero-day malware that doesn't have the signatures in MB yet. This is my layman's understanding of why someone would turn on this setting? What I find incredibly strange is that I have a full daily scan running and yet these two files were only detected yesterday. I haven't run any of the audio software for ages so these files must have been sitting there stagnant unless something changed them?
  2. Thanks for the reply. It looks like MB self updated a few minutes ago, so I re-ran the scan. Same result. Maybe it's due to some of the heuristics settings I have activated?
  3. Malwarebytes recently found two new threats on my machine, marked as Malware.Heuristic.1001 and 1003 - to my knowledge, nothing about these files has changed and they have been on my machine for some time. Interestingly they are both VST plugins used with audio production software and are both located in the Program Files x86 folder (I'm running Windows 10 x64). Could someone from the MB team pls confirm whether or not these are false positives? Thanks! Vstplugins-potentialfalsepositives.rar
