hxxxs://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?/topic/134993-what-are-the-pup-detections-are-they-threats-and-should-they-be-deleted/

 

that reson and not any other reson ?

 

if so hopefully the one in beta stage will fix the resons for it to flagged by malwarebyes.

This was a False Positive and was fixed 2 days ago.

Please update your MBAM database and re-scan.

It should no longer be detected.

 

Thank you,

Hi:
 
Is your issue resolved?

 

If not, False Positive reports are handled in a different area of the forum.
 
For prompt attention by the Research Team, if you think the file detection may be a False Positive, I suggest the following:

• First, please follow the advice here: Please read before reporting a false positive
• Then, please post the requested information (an MBAM scan log showing the detection and, if possible, the relevant file (zipped)) in a new thread here: False Positives - File Detections

 
Thank you for your understanding,

 

P.S. It's important to keep the MBAM database up-to-date. If you are running MBAM Premium, it's suggested that automatic update checks be scheduled every 1 to 4 hours.
