{L0V3}-H3ll Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 today RA updating and AVG stops the exe with IDP.ARES.GENERIC trojan Is this just me, or new code is causing it - can I tell AVG to ignore? cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 I scanned it online with AVG but AVG did not find anything, so I guess you might have paranoid settings enabled which lead to false detections https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/c8b8ecd294cd1d7d25df3ece4d4ee5283ef0e40945a0201f41c831894e7be208/analysis/1439309493/ https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/7199eeae72eea649ff3932beeb802a4d402ccf10ce1888325f41caf128965622/analysis/ Might be the best to ask in the AVG forums why you are getting this detection and others not, http://www.avg.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plokite_Wolf Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 What are you doing with AVG installed? Get something actually worthwhile like Malwarebytes Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FunkyFr3sh Posted August 11, 2015 Share Posted August 11, 2015 It detects the RedAlert1_Online_Installer.exe itself? Or does it alert about any file inside of it? Could you check the logs to see what filename it shows Just checked the installer, no detection there either: https://www.virustotal.com/de/file/5250c189c0d4cbbd2f34d7b3a177445a920fc83889abca823752f93aa911f787/analysis/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
{L0V3}-H3ll Posted August 11, 2015 Author Share Posted August 11, 2015 The AVG logs don't say much, just shows the time I ran the .exe containing the malware and me blocking or healing it. Must be something on my PC that targeted the cncnet.exe, then targeted the installer when I donloaded the new one. I will reinstall windows and upgrade to 10 on the weekend - and check out Malwarebytes; thanks for the tip. H3ll Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
