Rootkit c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution\download\b18c8e918883751dfbf19ad251c8c35

Hello everybody,

Today I did a scan with Avast 6 and Avast found a Rootkit (:modification system) in :

c:\windows\SoftwareDistribution\download\b18c8e918883751dfbf19ad251c8c352\x86_06ba0d35a05397d17859b3f9cb08ec23_b77a5c561934e089_6.0.6002.22621_none_e61fa5ebd64c1392.manifest

The threat is classified in HIGH

I think it’s a false positive, but I want to be sure to inform Avast.

I Did a scan with Malwarebyte anti-malware and spybot = Nothing
Avast had never shown an alert during use. Only in Scan.

Thank you :slight_smile:

have you tested the file at www.virustotal.com ?

Hello.

During the scan I deleted the file (It wasn’t very important). And I didn’t have Internet.

I installed the pc on Internet during 4 days only. And I didn’t visit risky websites.

And I didn't visit risky websites......
you dont have to.....

Ouah ! :o

It’s huge.

You think it’s a false Positive ?

Difficult to say, as you already deleted it, there’s nothing to check.

Ok Thank you :slight_smile:

You’re welcome…!
