MaXimus666 Posted January 30, 2014 ID:784674 Share Posted January 30, 2014 This file is reported as clean by my Kaspersky Antivirus, NOD32, Bitdefender It is flagged by my Norton AV and by my Webroot SecureAnywhere AV though so I put it on the ignore list Since the big sharks like Kaspersky don't detect it, I believe this is a false positive with no real harm? Need your expert advice on what this file does please as I am no programmer and don't know what it is altering SHA256: 46067bcde7fb1006430f97c286d7ac8de915315291c6c542567ae73939f848c8 File name: adobe.acrobat.xi.pro.patch-MPT.exe Detection ratio: 26 / 50 Analysis date: 2014-01-30 16:25:15 UTC ( 1 hour, 49 minutes ago ) PE signature blockCopyright© MPTPublisher MPT34MProduct ActivatorOriginal name ActivatorInternal name MPT34MFile version 1.0Description cr4cking th3 cod3 4 fun!

Staff miekiemoes Posted January 30, 2014 Staff ID:784677 Share Posted January 30, 2014 Hi, Our forum is not the place to get support for pirated software. Using pirated software/patched dlls etc etc is always a risk. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaXimus666 Posted January 30, 2014 Author ID:784678 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I don't need help with pirated software, I just wanna start using my lifetime license for MBAM but so many false positives I love how MBAM works to remove threats I just wish it removes real viruses not FPs man Again, I don't want help with pirated software, this is about saying a file is harmful when it may or may not really be so Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted January 30, 2014 Staff ID:784680 Share Posted January 30, 2014 We don't detect as Malicious here perse, we either detect as Pup.Riskware or as Cracktool. We name it as what it is - so our detection is correct here. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MaXimus666 Posted January 30, 2014 Author ID:784682 Share Posted January 30, 2014 so MBAM is for detecting cracks or real viruses? This is why I don't use MBAM even though I have a lifetime license, I just wish it could really tell me when I have a virus not a bunch of activator or harmless tracks at the end of the day, MBAM is not DMCA, it's a security product to detect threats I do understand that some activators or "cracks" are really harmful and thus I wanted to report these to differentiate between the threats and leave the cracks part to its own Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MaXimus666 Posted January 30, 2014 Author ID:784690 Share Posted January 30, 2014 exactly why I stopped using MBAM! and this enforces my detection! Thank you, I own a computer website / forum and will let people know how MBAM is the highest FP security product out there. Thank you for your fast and useless replies.

MaXimus666 Posted January 30, 2014 Author ID:784692 Share Posted January 30, 2014 We detect Malware, which is ANYTHING that is a risk for the user. This to keep our users safe.keeping users safe from a crack that doesn't do any harm?? riiiiight this makes me not trust your product and stick to the big security names that know what they're doing Kaspersky, having a consisten track record in the AV Comparatives tests as shown here for detecting 100% of the viruses and 0 false positives never detects these as either viruses or cracks, they pass the detection see here: AV-Comparatives - Real World Tests so please your justification doesn't make sense. Users WANT to be informed if a crack or activator is actually harmful, but there is no sense in simply detecting it as a crack if it does no harm Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted January 30, 2014 Staff ID:784699 Share Posted January 30, 2014 I hope you realise that, when using pirated software, patched files/cracked files may open a security hole in the program or may even contain additional malicious data.This is why we, and other scanners detect this, because it's our job to make the user aware of this.
