False positive - SeaMonkey plugin-container.exe

[Ztruker]

I was trying to install Eraser to check out a problem someone had posted on tenforums.com. When I started the install, MABMRW complained about Seamonkey plugin-container.exe which is definitely a false positive.

Hello Ztruker:

Thank you for the corroborating JPEG.

Please carefully read the locked and pinned topic in this sub-forum, How to report a False Positive and for developer analysis, kindly attach the requested archives to your next reply in this thread.

Thank you for beta testing MBARW and your feedback.

Hello Rich:

The above attachments are missing vital data and it is almost certainly not your fault. i.e. MBAMSERVICE.LOG

Reference: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/14fa2197006cd8f1218fe735a946e7c94972b1fc601a8ca6794353b895bb136c/analysis/1458113922/

Presently available data points to a false positive, and therefor you could consider temporarily entering the following in MBARW GUI Dashboard -> Exclusions:

C:\Program Files (x86)\SeaMonkey\plugin-container.exe

Thank you for beta testing MBARW and your valued data. Also, please check and see if you have any overly-aggressive clean-up utilities that could possibly delete:

%ProgramData%\Malwarebytes\MBAMService\logs\MBAMSERVICE.LOG

If not, the MBARW developer team needs to check deeper for why this goes away on a few systems.

Here is the zipped log file:  MBAMSERVICE.zip

 

I added plugin-container.exe to the Exclusion list.

I'll try Erase again and see what happens.
