Flounders98 Posted January 13, 2013 ID:633538 Share Posted January 13, 2013 On a recent scan of my computer malware-bytes detected the file DNSFixer.exe as the Zeus Spyware. This file is a componet of the IP Vanish software. I ran the file through virustotal and only malware-bytes finds this and i also have nod32 running also. Is this really a false positveVirusTotal.pdf Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted January 13, 2013 Staff ID:633572 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hi,Unfortunately we can't do anything with this PDF report in order to fix the FP (in case it's an FP). Can you attach the sample it is detecting in your next post please? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flounders98 Posted January 13, 2013 Author ID:633575 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Just got this email reply from vendor.Dan L. commented on IPVS-12396 at 13/Jan/13 3:11 AM:-----------------------------------------------------Hello,DNSFixer is a program that tries to prevent DNS leaks (see http://www.dnsleaktest.com/) and is similar in nature to their "Solution A" as see on on their "How can I fix a DNS leak?" page.I can pretty much guarantee that it's a false positive, but I'll forward this to our developers... maybe they can get in touch with the Malwarebytes team to get that corrected in a future update.-DanIPVanish Support Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted January 13, 2013 Staff ID:633576 Share Posted January 13, 2013 Hi,This file is not detected here. This FP was probably fixed already. Can you verify with latest database update if this file is still detected? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
