akjudge Posted January 15, 2015 ID:929662 Share Posted January 15, 2015 Not sure if this is the right place to post this... Was going to install Software Information for Windows (free version) from Major Geeks site: http://www.majorgeeks.com/mg/getmirror/siw_%28system_info%29,1.html Scanned download with Malwarebytes Premium (database up-to-date) -- no malware found, nor any warning about a PUP (I have PUP notification checked). License page shows Open Candy terms. AVG and VirusTotal found the PUP before i installed. Just wanted to bring to your attention if they are using a method your algorithm can't find... Sorry if this is an inappropriate posting... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
