Togijak Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 I used EMSISOFT AM a long time but in the last time it went to snakeoil and tells me nonsense like The funny part is, that cfoss is a payed and not a cracked version. The same nonsense info I get for File&Image Uploader etc. and the result for me was to uninstall EMSISOFT AM Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steven36 Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 How is it any different than the rest of the anti-malware engines out there? They all tell lies ..Malwarebytes realtime is so intrusive that it still be flagging app's sites ip were you have blocked in you're firewall to began with . I went back to just using NOD32 witch dont lie as much but even it lies it says Nsanedown is a threat because they post ESET activation tools here . Unless you're some Noob who runs installers without blocking them with a firewall and you install PUP most of these anti-malware engines will only find false positives. The more engines you run the more false positives you have. This is from years of being on the internet testing these programs just encase the real thing comes along and for me someday never comes . Using any anti-malware engine without being able to know what is real and not real and excluding false positives is more problematic than most malware that can be removed with a on demand programs or in the worse case reformatting ..

NightWalker Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 It isnt a problem with Emsisoft per se, its a Bitdefender engine (a very good engine) false positive, it is "normal" to have some false positives from time to time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
masterupc Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 With ESET I've never had a false positive... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronY-Man Posted December 30, 2016 Share Posted December 30, 2016 Another good reason not to put trust into these (intrusive) malware engines and IDK; why everyone says here that ESET flags this site with warnings but it never happened to even with ESET parental control enabled and so on.!! I have used Norton , McAfee, Avast , MBytes (gave me same problems as OP said ), then was satisfied for a long time with AVG until frm last year they started bloating it up and made it a bloatware more & less AV.....thats why I switched to ESET and its been very good so far !!

Togijak Posted December 31, 2016 Author Share Posted December 31, 2016 If I remember right there was a problem between ESET and Sandboxie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
