X3M Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 This just recently happened. While it was fine 2 days ago. Only the files of CNCnet are marked like this. The only new thing that I installed during the time is an update for flash player. For the rest, notching new.
0 Tore Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 What anti-virus do you have? If it is Norton then the files are flagged because of "low popularity" or being "uncommon".
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Name the files, post the logs, tell us what anti virus program you have and report the false alert to your anti virus provider And like tore said, if it is norton/symantec then it is not a virus, just failure of their broken software once again
0 X3M Posted February 4, 2015 Author Posted February 4, 2015 It is from Ziggo; Ziggo Security Basic, checking it now for change of settings. Turns out, it had 2 updates today without alerting me. This means that everyone with this scanner will face the same problems. It had the Hydra update and the Aquarius update. Normally this scanner shows no problems, it simply asks me for permission. But some how it now immediately deletes the suspected file. I also tried reinstalling TS. When trying to run, it asked for permission to run. Then, it got deleted again. PS, checked for logs; no logs !!!!
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 If there are no logs then at least name the files, else no one can report the problem to them and they won't be able to fix it
0 X3M Posted February 4, 2015 Author Posted February 4, 2015 When double clicking on the icon, you still get the menu. The next file seems to be missing. cncnet5.exe
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 Alright, good to know Hope these guys are fixing it soon, would be nice if you and everyone else who is using that anti virus program could report the false alert to Ziggo
0 bmoeller Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 I have used avast and avg since having your games installed and i don't receive any false positives
0 amokk Posted February 4, 2015 Posted February 4, 2015 avira has never alerted any cncnet files on my box
0 X3M Posted February 4, 2015 Author Posted February 4, 2015 Trying to find to alert the ziggo security programmers. However, I find other options now too. Analysing these. Ok, seems I can restore a file that got isolated. However, it immediately deletes cncnet5.exe right after restoring it. Without even trying to use it. I think I am doing something wrong here. And why is it suddenly marked as trojan? It must be some script that they consider bad, since it is a deep scan. On the other hand, all the normal .exe programs where in the list of allowed programs. Except cncnet5.exe Could it be that since one program tries to run another .exe, that this is the "trojan" by some new standards?
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted February 5, 2015 Posted February 5, 2015 It seems like the false alerts have been fixed
0 X3M Posted February 6, 2015 Author Posted February 6, 2015 Really? I'll check when i get home. Or are you asuming this because the topic went silent?
0 FunkyFr3sh Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 According to virustotal.com the false positives are gone, there was another guy who had a false positive too and he confirmed it
0 X3M Posted February 6, 2015 Author Posted February 6, 2015 Great, then I will try again this sunday. (workworkwork) I do need to reinstall all 4 though. They didn't reply to me, so I wonder where he reported it. Is this info avaiable?
