  1. ok thanks, guess I should have assumed it was safe since it wasn't something I recently downloaded and nothing was detected on 5/14/23.
  2. not sure if this is a false positive or not, HWMONITOR_X32.EXE, was detected as Malware.AI.4065387103 during a normal threat scan. I never really touch that executable, and haven't updated HWMonitor in some time. Last time I ran the full threat scan was Sunday 5/14/23 which detected nothing. Hopefully I can get some feedback if the file is a threat or not. Malwarebytes detection.txt HWMonitor_x32.zip
  3. Thanks, it had me worried, but when thinking about it, nothing detected 9:40 AM scan, I didn't download or do anything before shutting it off at 10:15 AM and it was off for the entire day until turning it on at 8:00 PM.
  4. hello, I just turned on my PC, looked for updates on Malwarebytes, then ran a scan, and it came back with a detection. I quarantined it before really thinking about double checking and scanning it with Windows Defender or anything. I had ran a scan this morning at about 9:40 AM with Malwarebytes and it didn't detect anything, shut down my PC at about 10:15 AM, and only just turned it back on at about 8:00 PM, then ran the scan. So I'm wondering if this is a False Positive since my PC wasn't really used at all.malware detection.txt
  5. yeah, better to be safe than sorry, here is the detection log. I had just downloaded 2 files from a website that I trust and have downloaded from countless times before (curseforge.com) and ran Malwarebyte and Windows Defender scans on downloaded files them selves both zipped and after unzipping, nothing detected, so running the normal Malwarebytes scan afterwards and having it detect something worried me detection.txt
  6. I apologize for making a new thread since I see other threads about people getting false positives around the same time. I did a Malwarebytes scan (Components Version: 1.0.1702, Update Package Version: 1.0.56407) and it detected C:\WINDOWS\SYSWOW64\MSHTML.DLL as Trojan Injector. I quarantined it (it showed replaced). after seeing the thread about the false positives, I searched for updates, I undid/allowed the quarantined file and ran a normal scan and Full Scan with Update Package Version 1.056411 as the latest, nothing was detected on either scan. I also ran a scan with both Malwarebytes and Windows defender on the individual file, nothing was detected. I can provide more info if needed including the Scan Report, but I was kind of assuming it was a false positive.
  7. ok thanks, trying to be more careful about not jumping the gun with things that are false positives, had to do a system restore after panicking on May 19th and deleting the 50 some odd things that were quarantined by the Malwarebytes scan back then (that turned out to be legitimate Windows scheduled tasks that were just false positives...)
  8. ok so it is safe? I assume it was a false positive, but if I didn't try to check or follow up, I would have been worried.
  9. Hello, I'm wondering if this is a false positive (I hope it is since the file has been on my PC for some time). It is a file called FMODEX.DLL, it was in a folder for a SNES emulator that I have had for a number of years on my D drive, and I copied the same emulator to my F drive about a year ago, so that is why it found it in 2 different locations. It was detected when doing a Full system scan with rootkit enabled yesterday (it was detected within the first 10-15 minutes of scanning which really worried me since the full rootkit scan generally takes nearly 4 and a half hours). The thing is I normally run a full rootkit scan about once a week, and nothing was detected last time I scanned (last Friday) or any of the previous scans. When I took the file out out of quarantine today to zip it up to attach it here to this post (I hope I am doing it correctly), Malwarebytes doesn't detect it as being malicious at all when scanning the folder or the individual file itself (I left the copy of the file from my F drive quarantined). Here is the log from the scan and the file fmodex.txt fmodex.zip
