cage22 Posted August 21, 2022 ID:1529354 Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) this is from my personal computer with paid home-use license. File came up as positive on a manual scan. Scanned same file with VirusTotal. Nothing found 0/59. fpreport.txt Edited August 21, 2022 by shadowwar Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff shadowwar Posted August 21, 2022 Staff ID:1529366 Share Posted August 21, 2022 We are not sure why this was detected. It may have to do with rootkit scanning being turned on. Rootkit scanning should only be used when there is an infection present that we may have trouble removing. Can you please attach this file: C:\ProgramData\Malwarebytes\MBAMService\logs\mbamservice.log and any other mbamservice.bk# files from that directory so we maybe can see what happened. I recommend you set an exclusion. This file is a database of torrents that were downloaded it looks like. I assume you use torrents? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cage22 Posted August 21, 2022 Author ID:1529386 Share Posted August 21, 2022 I guess it was the root kit option. I just ran it with that option just for curiosity and not having used that option in a long time. I just had MB rescan the file using the MB right-click context menu option and MB didn’t find anything. So I guess it’s fine and was just an anomaly due to the rootkit option. Thank you for the quick reply. Feel free to close case. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Staff shadowwar Posted August 25, 2022 Staff ID:1529989 Share Posted August 25, 2022 Ok just so you know. When you enable rootkit scanning it will lower some whitelisting we have in place so false positives are more apt to happen with rootkit scanning.
