Nmap virus?

[rwiberg]

I have a recurring box showing up on my screen that says "Nmap not working".  I have googled Nmap and found that it is a virus.  Malwarebytes does not find it nor does McAfee.  How do I get rid of it?

Thanks,

Roger

Hello @rwiberg and

Nmap ("Network Mapper") is a free and open source (license) utility for network discovery and security auditing

https://nmap.org/

 

Let's go ahead though and get some logs to see what's going on.

 

Please download Farbar Recovery Scan Tool and save it to your desktop.

Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system.
You can check here if you're not sure if your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit

• Double-click to run it. When the tool opens click Yes to disclaimer.
• Press Scan button.
• It will make a log (FRST.txt) in the same directory the tool is run. Please attach it to your reply.
• The first time the tool is run, it also makes another log (Addition.txt). Please attach it to your reply as well.

 

Thanks

Ron
