False Positive: Worm.Agent / Registry Keys


Popeye

Recommended Posts

I have the same things showing after doing a scan with MBAM database v2012.04.11.06. The items are currently quarantined and hadn't shown up yesterday.

Another alleged Worm.Agent was pmmig.exe which I uploaded to Jotti's malware scan; none of the 20 programs there found anything,so I've restored the file.

I'll be interested to know your findings!

@Hi Madeline; Rich had been working on the pmmig.exe hit with me and it should no longer show up as a worm.agent when the newer definition updates comes out. It's part of the Pale Moon Browser product.

@ALL: I had the registration 'worm" entries as well and just deleted ("quarantined") them temporally until someone comes up with an answer one way or another as to their safety.
