MYOB Accountants Office picked up as Ransomware

[AlexLeadingEdge]

Hi guys,

We have accountants here in New Zealand pulling their hair out because Malwarebytes has quarantined the latest update of MYOB Accountants Office (ao.exe) as Ransomeware, as well as links to that file.

What is doubly annoying is that when I unquarantine it Malwarebytes says it has completed, but the ao.exe file doesn't return.

Can you provide logs and the file?

This looks like it was fixed earlier today.  Also in order to restore from quarantine after a detection the machine would have to be rebooted first then  after malwarebytes comes back up after the reboot you can restore it.
