Malwarebyts report malware on tumblingjazz

Post by mindmaster »

Can you guys check this out.

The past few days I have some problems with internet speed, so I decided to check for malware.
Here are the results.
I normally get for the other software, but the ones for tumblingjazz is new.
I quarantine it in the mid-time.

Is a false positive.

There are using machinelearning heuristics, to try and guess whether it contains malware, they haven't actually discovered anything. What they pick up is the fact the code is obfuscated (encrypted basically to try and make it harder to be cracked.

This legitimate technique is the same that some malware uses to hide itself.

It is like saying, "that knife is sharp, you are a murderer", when you are just trying to chop a carrot for your lunch.

I'll contact malwarebytes and ask them to fix *their* error
