Cordialis Posted January 24, 2013 ID:638827 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I don't think my new gif-viewer is malware but better to ask, right? :-) I downloaded it via Seven Forums where a short video gives instructions about how to install. It is apparently a user made little program. Windows 7 won't show animated gifs. And I like gifs...Link to download here: http://www.sevenforu...-perfectly.htmlPlease check for a possible false positive? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cordialis Posted January 24, 2013 Author ID:638881 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Strange. I ram MBAM and deleted that one finding. Then I searched my PC for the prime suspect and latest install, - the animated gif-viewer. It was not there. I then reinstalled the gif-viewer and ran MBAM again. Same finding. I also googled [bffa91e588e31e18a4a25d7d11f2ff01] - no results.I don't know what to make of it. You certainly have raised a question. :-)My PC is clean now...-----------Edit made.

nosirrah Posted January 24, 2013 ID:638913 Share Posted January 24, 2013 The problem is that you installed that into root (C:\). Root is a folder for system files and folders, not personal software and files. Root is a common location for malware to install and as a result we do not let you get away with much there. If you wish to use root as a software install folder you will need to set detections there to ignore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordialis Posted January 24, 2013 Author ID:638918 Share Posted January 24, 2013 I just installed what was listed in the program - the default that the download came with. I'll install it again and name a folder for the viewer. Just using the root is a mess, I find. Thank you for clearing that up. :-D Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
