I recently got AVG warnings about a Trojan in a keygen.exe file. It's been my experience that AVG can give out false positives when it comes to certain files.
But I also did a scan with Malwarebytes and got another warning. How can i be certain I haven't been infected? Jotti's said 6 out of 20 reported infections on this fileHow were the detections actually reported? Each security vendor uses their own naming conventions to identify various types of malware so it's difficult to determine exactly what has been detected or the nature of the threa without knowing more information.
You indicate that AVG says the file is a Trojan and Malwarebytes indicates it is RiskWare.Tool.CK. Riskware is a broad category and does not necessessarily mean malware. If you suspect a file was falsely detected (a ) or suspicious, then you should submit a sample to the vendor so they can investigate and take corrective action if confirmed. Please refer to:. If the file has been placed in the Virus Vault, then follow these directions:. Even though the instructions say if you suspect the file is clean but you still have doubts, submit them anyway using this method. There's only question you need to figure out.
With the existence of false positives, the existence of real viruses, the existence of real viruses that people will say is a false positive, and the existence of certain viruses that need the user to click install to get the virus onboard, and (one more time) the existence of NO REAL WAY TO KNOW THE DIFFERENCE between a real and a fake virus alert (for the average person), 1) My antivirus will protect me. 2) I trust the programmer who changed his name and replied to someone's comment about a virus, he says it is a false positive. So, umm, good enough. 3) I don't care if it has a virus or not. I can't afford to pay for the software and I am determined to learn it. I will buy it if I ever get a job doing it. For me there was only one question.
If there exists 'false positives' and there exists real viruses with ppl claiming that it is false.does it matter? What choice do I have but to disable my antivirus completely. (Numerous reasons why an aspiring artist would need to use a cracked version of Maya. Who can pay 6000 dollars? Or pay a monthly license? Learning another app is not feasible.
Maya is hands down the BEST!!!) The decision is simple.Do what you have to do or be told what not to do. How badly do you not want to pay for that game or use that app? 20 years of lifestyle changed in a week for me. I used to install anything and everything. Viruses and I had an understanding. Yes, I know my Windows is deteriorating, but thanks to this situation, I have learned how to automate Windows installations including software all wrapped up in an answer file.
And so I had a system of learning and coexisting with the virus. I have no idea if it is a high school kid, North Korea, or the NSA. I do not use my computer for important or sensitive things. BUT IT ALL CHANGED.
The laws have changed. People don't know it, but America is not the best country in the world anymore because of the internet and the laws. In America you can go to jail because a hacker put a file on your computer. So now I am busy disinfecting the software someone automated.
(Basically that's what it is - automated installs with a virus added. When you click the keygen, you just gave the virus permission to exist. It is no longer a virus. It will walk, dance, do whatever, and your antivirus will probably ask it for a light, share a few jokes, exchange handshakes and walk away.
Oh by the way, the virus detected stands a pretty good chance that it's actually the virus that threw that alert to get you to click another permission. I can only say that after 20 years of internet use downloading everything under the sun, the only reason I am not in jail might be because of the transparency in which I have lived my life. EVERYONE knows I am harmless, just curious. Do yourself a favor and watch some youtube videos on adding expoits to keygens.or even pictures.
Yes, click a jpeg and get infected. One 5 minute video on youtube should wake you right up. Look up the OWASP, DEFCON, Black Hat, White hat, or NSA stuff.Then learn how to make the packages you need, and stay offline.

My other question Jeff is this, every time I use the serial it accepts then rejects it, i put in a second one and it works. But i have to repeat this process everytime I use the software. I just mentioned this but I tried working around it but using a (run-as-date app/ and changed the host file w/ notepad) it doesnt help anything. I have even more questions particularly about bluebugging software, i just started researching it and I am curious as to what software that actually is??
How does it work? Dont know if you can PM here on this site? Thank you everybody for the helpful advice 1). Keygens are illegal and highly dangerous (oops;-) 2.) VBN code?
(nice - look into that) 3.) sandboxie virtualbox (read about that in 2600 -havent used it yet) AVG says: Trojan horse Agent3.AVUK Yeah that is what I did; disable RS, run key, open prog, enable RS I am just looking in deeper to the issue, kind of like when someones asks you how a toilet works you say sure, you press the button and it flushes. Despite the fact that there is actually much more to flushing that turd down. (warning not original thought - ripped off from psych book (Invisible Gorilla). That's a bit suggestive, no? How can you blindly say (without investigating) that the key generator won't harm his system?

Upload it to. Once the scan is complete, if it finds any malicious objects do research on them, see what users have to say. Is it a false positive? Did it mess their system up? If comments are filtered, don't trust the results. I need to know more about the trojan in order to tell you if it's malicious or not. For example, a trojan and a trojan hack tool are very different things.

Your anti-virus will probably say it's 'trojan.SOMETHING', tell me what it is. I wouldn't ever advice disabling your security, rather add an exception if you think the file is safe. This way, if the application ends up trying to play hanky panky with your files, your anti-virus will tell you.
To answer your question, an anti-virus most likely detects it as a trojan because it patches other programs (assembly or registry entries). Any application that isn't signed by a reputable author and attempts to modify other application's structure's is usually classified as 'potentially malicious'. It may be a false positive (meaning it's not actually a virus, but the anti-virus thinks it is) or it may actually be malicious. On a side note, keygens are illegal and highly dangerous.
A 64kb application probably can't do much, I speculate it may be a trojan downloader, whereby it downloads the rest of itself upon execution. I suggest either running it in a sandbox or virtual machine environment such as or, respectively. This way, if it is malicious it doesn't disrupt the files you need. Hit me with the rest of your questions, Andrei!
