Malwarebytes Premium detects gmod.exe as a Trojan/Spyware/Compromised


Go to solution Solved by BjelakovicL,

Recommended Posts

Every time I launch Garry's Mod I get multiple warnings about gmod.exe being Compromised, A Trojan, or Spyware. It's kinda freaking me out a bit every time it happens. I even tried putting it in my Exclusion List but it keeps happening. These Notifications only popup when I tab out or when I quit Garry's Mod, it never pops up while i'm playing the game. Need some insight on this so I stop getting worried about the Notifications. I can provide the reports if you need them.

Hi,

Thanks for reporting. The IP blocks will be removed.

The IPs are getting blocked due to some server(s) the games are trying to connect to. Many games connect to many different IPs to play online.

Some of those IPs get blocked for one reason or another.

The game itself is not a virus.

I forgot to mention but I have another IP that might need to be removed from the block list.

Hi, I am also experiencing this issue as well everytime I launch garry's mod, no matter if it's excluded or not I get the alert for a Trojan, but the IP addresses in my logs are different than OP's post:

Thanks! It will be fixed in the next database update.

The 74.91.123.148 address is the most common IP address it blocks, but here are some other ones from different dates:
