0access rootkit quarantine


Recommended Posts

Hello everyone, the other day I scanned a file I downloaded, which I did not execute before scanning with MalwareBytes. It detected the 0access rootkit and removed it. However, at the same time a message about Windows Firewall disabled, 'click to reenable' or something showed up. Malwarebytes then had me restart the PC to 'remove collateral damage' and nothing has happened afterwards, but the weird firewall thing has been bugging me a lot despite nothing being wrong at all afterwards.

 

Should I feel safe or be worried? could Malwarebytes have disabled it?

 

Thanks in advance
