False Positive Virus? Or Should I Be Worried? 

I've been using windows integrated protection only for the last 5 years or so and I never had any problem with any kind of malware. At least I never knew. It all comes of how responsible you are when you're using your PC. If your job or hobby is trying dubious software from various sources you would better use an antivirus. If you have the habit of clicking on every link that might appear on your screen or open spam mails or mails you get from unknown addresses, no antivirus can protect you.

Had the same problem where Nirsoft gets flagged as a false positive and have informed virus protection manufacturers but it seems to be an ongoing issue!

Very Nice. You are a kind of teacher to me. 🙏

I really enjoy these videos. There's always something new to learn. Just wanna say thank you

Thank you that was very educational. I understand it now. Thanks.

Banner Ad offers Restoro which is advertised as "Windows 10 Repair Tool", that's the program people download which causes issues.

I heard Norton did not share a very good reputation compared to their contemporaries. Has this product improved?

Winamp 5.xx is also flagged by some antivirus -happen to me last year

The people who complain are teenage boys , who are immature , You know them when they write crap like "first"

I don't use any anti-virus software, so I've never had any of these problems. I also don't download any files to my PC other than Firefox and the needed AMD drivers.

Good stuff, keep it up!

Nice info,thanks for sharing :)

windows 11 and 10 have been blocking everything so much I have to add to exceptions and fire wall people should really complain to Microsoft about this it's a true problem.

Malwarebytes will flag any page/site it likes, very annoying.

"Windows repair tool"...sure I'm getting this.I mean,what could go wrong?

Cool. Good info.

good review

good info as always

You could make a video about how infected 15-10 year old cd-roms and dvd that came with Computer Magazins (paper issue) were - They are littered with stuff that gets red flag going on everywhere - and i guess they can wreak havoc ( your windows get hickups ok dont blame me after ) even if you are "protected with windows antivirus.

Can the firewall not allow a false positive?

I download pirated games, but have extra virus protection hitman pro anti malware etc which I constantly scan

a file i tested had 2 anti viruses saying it was a virusand windows had blocked the file when start up should i be concerned or should i just ignore it and download it

A cracked game file ? Happens a lot

Great Video

Researching "safest web browsers" I've come to the conclusion it's not what browser you use, it's what you do with it. Common sense is still, and always has been the "safest web browser".

I get false alarms on old software. 😤😤

Plan a video on Kaspersky please

Most malware can't get past Windows 10/11 with all the defenses built in now and days, along with years of security update.s Windows (defender) see's the program "Hacker Process " as being malicious LOL I use 7 Zip to compress and zip backup folders

Is fornite rift private server a virus?

I think virustotal is lying

Really useful vid👎🏿👍

Pin The Pinhead.

First pin me

Dont pin that other guy......pin me instead cos Im better than he is.

My antivirus (TotalAV) has detected a ''TR/Crypt.XPACK.Gen7'' on a program I just downloaded. So I run a scan at VirusTotal and it resulted in 11 positives out of 65 engines, labeled as trojan. All these popular engines I know marks it as undetected (negative): Kapersky BitDefender Avira NOD32 McAfee Avast AVG Panda ...and 52 more engines. And these are 2 I know (of the 11) marking it as a threat: Marwarebytes BitDefenderTheta So, I'm kind of confused.
