Staff miekiemoes Posted February 19, 2014 Staff ID:793694 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Thanks for reporting. This will be fixed in next database update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mahhn Posted February 19, 2014 ID:793731 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Has this been verified as a false positive? I've spent to much time (money) dicking around chasing this to keep it up. I see worm and virus info on the web related to this folder, but I don't have any of the other symptoms besides this file/folder as the OP. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyfellow Posted February 19, 2014 ID:793733 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I was going to ask for help with removing PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A, but it seems like I wont have to do it then. Can someone explain what this is in layman's terms? Both what PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A is, and why it's a false positive. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted February 19, 2014 Staff ID:793735 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Yes, this was a false positive and has been corrected already, so a next scan shouldn't list these anymore. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
snoze Posted February 19, 2014 ID:793746 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I run Malwarebytes when I got in a short time ago. I just bought a mouse ( from £ land lol ) because the touch pad on the new acer Windows 8.1 was doing \my head in. it was dragging charms out and closing brower and tabs, geezzzzzz But I was a bit worried about the mouse putting anything on the machine, so done a quick scan, it showedFolders Detected: 2C:\ProgramData\boost_interprocess (PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A) -> No action taken.C:\ProgramData\boost_interprocess\20131114083528.485530 (PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A) -> No action taken.Files Detected: 2C:\ProgramData\boost_interprocess\20131114083528.485530\Nobu64AgentService2.8.0.44 (PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A) -> No action taken.C:\ProgramData\boost_interprocess\20131114083528.485530\Nobu64TrayIcon2.8.0.44 (PUP.Optional.BoostInterProcess.A) -> No action taken.............I saved the log and run ccleaner, the Malwarebytes again. I t didn't show up in the last scan does that mean I'm all good to go ? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
luckyfellow Posted February 19, 2014 ID:793747 Share Posted February 19, 2014 I just updated the database and did a scan and nothing showed up. Thank you! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff shadowwar Posted February 19, 2014 Staff ID:793789 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Yes these shouldnt be detected with latest database. SO if they are no longer detected after you update everything is fine then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cash22 Posted February 19, 2014 ID:793842 Share Posted February 19, 2014 Does anyone know what these files are? My daily scan caught them this morning and I removed them. Were they important? What program created/uses them? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff miekiemoes Posted February 20, 2014 Staff ID:794019 Share Posted February 20, 2014 Hi, It's ok if they are removed though, they are just created during install of certain programs (for some reason, a lot of PUP use these boost libraries). If they are removed, it won't affect anything and are actually safe to remove. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
