Since the World of Tanks update to v1.0.1.1, I have received a few Avast warnings, indicating the internal World of Tanks cef browser is trying to access an infected URL:
Ran a full Avast scan with 0 errors found
Ran a full Avast boot time scan using the recommended extra downloads with 0 errors found
Ran the Adware Removal Tool by TSA with 0 errors found
Ran Adware Cleaner v7.2.0 with 0 errors found
Ran hitmanpro x64 with 0 errors found
Ran Zemana Anti-Malware with 0 errors found
Not sure where to go from here. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
The problem is I cannot locate the source so that is why I am asking for suggestions. I really don’t want to stop playing World of Tanks unless it is absolutely necessary to avoid a recurring infection, and I am not convinced that this is not a false positive, so that is why I am asking.
Thanks for that link. So, only two AV found an issue with it, while all others ran clean? And, Avast never tested it? Sounds like it might be a false positive? Thanks for your help.
Well, I tried to browse directly to the website and Firefox gave me a “deceptive site warning” so it sure isn’t your average run of the mill URL. Thanks for all your help and direction.
