I tell you what. When I get home I will show you. Or else anyone of you can duplicate it by merely downloading Easeus Todo Backup.

Computer scan means scan computer. Same thing as a full scan. I know exactly what he is talking about cause I ran into the same issue. I use Easues Todo weekly. Also he would have to reinstall Easues Todo to post a screen shot. It;s no big deal. Just like Webroot detects System Explorer. You just add it to the trusted list. Most likely Josifusz does not know what a false positive is nor does he know how to exclude folders and files. I never bothered reporting it cause I know how to deal with it.

No both of you are incorrect. There is no incompatibility nor is there an unwanted detection. When you run a full scan with Eset it detects 2 files in the Easeus folder. I ignore those findings and simply exclude the folder from being scanned. It's that easy. There is NOTHING wrong with Easeus Todo Backup. I have ran into this problem several times. It's a false positive so I just exclude the folder from being scanned. Just download Easeus Todo Backup yourself. I think it was some .dll file but I maybe wrong.

Not sure what else to tell you. Eset, Google Chrome and Firefox are all warning you not to download it. If you absolutely need the file then I suggest emailing the person who made the file and telling them.

I certainly wouldn't trust AVG. https://www.mrg-effitas.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/MRG-Effitas-Online-Banking-Certification-2014-Q4-Level-2.pdf https://www.mrg-effitas.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/03/MRG-Effitas-Online-Banking-Certification-2014-Q4-Level-1.pdf

There is no malware contained in Easeus Todo Backup. I use that program myself. It's a false positive on Eset part. Just exclude the Easeus folder from being scanned. Problem solved. There was nothing to email about. Excluding the folder solves the issue. Why did you need to reinstall Windows?

This post is from last year.

Well even Google Chrome gave me a warning so I would not trust it. It may not be malware related but no way would I trust downloading it.

What exactly are you downloading? Can you provide a link?

Lol.........So Google Chrome (shown in your screen shot) which is actually the most popular browser on the market is classified as "unwanted content" by Eset. Does Eset have a court case going on against Google we don;t know about?

Now here is a better example of something malicious or unwanted being legitimately detected. 13 out of 55. If you cannot see the difference between the 2 Virustotal images I submitted then we have nothing else to discuss. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/ab5ab68b541c0de51d7e9eafe1cbe5267347c1e6edf1faeedc79e01fd774375e/analysis/1427984484/

Before when ? Do you talk about ESET or other vendors ? Lol..................Try reading the first post made by Handries. Stop defending Eset like it's your first born. Clearly it's a problem and I have submitted it. FYI....................Yes I fully understand how and why Eset is detecting this as a PUP. Again the fact that ONLY Eset gives people this warning means it's a false positive. Heck even Virustotal shows in green that its harmless. Now if you upload something with OpenCandy such as ImgBurn or uTorrent you will see more antiviruses detecting it. Again there is NOTHING malicious with Google Chrome or Google Toolbar. Now if CCleaner came pre packed with OpenCandy that's a different ball game.

Eset is detecting the CCleaner installer as a "potentially unwanted program". Yes this does not necessarily mean it's malicious. But to the newbies or just plain inexperienced user they would flip at seeing a pop up in front of their face such as this. You need to think as an average pc user and not someone who is very knowledgeable. Again it is a false positive on Eset's behalf. Especially since CCleaner was never detected before. Hence the reason Handries started this post. Gezzz.

@ Destarah..............I have been repairing pc's for over 15 years now. I focus mainly on malware removal. I make house calls.99% of malware infections are self inflicted. Users carelessly clicking next,next,next and not paying attention to what they are installing. Your sister is to blame for that freepctuneup problem. Not Norton or any other antivirus. As in matter of fact Avast has PUP detection off by default. Most likely your sister was using Internet Explorer which has no extensions. I always tell my customers to use either Google Chrome or Firefox with Adblock Plus. When you think a file is a false positive you submit it to the company. You can also upload it to Virustotal to verify it. If more then 5 antivirus companies detect it then most likely it is malicious. The fact that only Eset detects the CCleaner installer as malicious proves that it is a false positive. Keep in mind that Bitdefender, Kaspersky, Avira and Qihoo 360 have a much higher detection rate then Eset. People always wanna blame their antivirus when they get infected when in fact they are to blame. So what you people are telling me is that Eset is better then all other antiviruses and they are correct telling people not to download CCleaner full installer. Yeah right. Notice how Handries has not been back to reply. Obviously he is not worried about it. But warning people and making them scared that what they are downloading is potential malicious when clearly it is not is wrong. That's a false positive. If you are wondering why I use Eset then look here. https://forum.eset.com/topic/4509-why/#entry25863

Please read all the replies in this post. Especially the link I provided to Virustotal. Eset is the ONLY antivirus telling people that Google Chrome and or Google Toolbar is malicious. Which clearly it is not. Hence the false positive detection. Here is the Virustotal link again. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/6a87e940dc0380a1f5fef889643d77d49835a922d4e0e791bd35e7b738eb8709/analysis/1427950206/

The website address that was blocked by ESET looks dummy to me. A legitimate website would rarely have this type of website address. You should check on the IP and search for its geolocation and host. Moreover, it also has .cn on its website address, it is suspicious for me LMFAO...................I will get right on that. As soon as I hop on my flying pig and go visit never never land. So this link is not legit? Please do elaborate for me. The suspense is killin me.Look at the address bar in the screen shot. Click on the links I provided. The warning in the bottom right was 1 of 3. That was for something else. hxxp://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard

It is definitely a problem on Eset's part. I have Chrome installed since that is the only browser I use. I downloaded CCleaner from Piriform and received a pop up warning.

Firefox is open-source, Palemoon is open-source and a fork of Firefox, not a beta build. Relax..............I made a mistake. This thread is not about Palemoon anyways. Someone asked so I gave them a reply. I said it was beta but I also said it was open source. Thanks.

It's not a false positive. Eset is doing exactly as it should. The download contains a additional program other then CCleaner. On the other hand if you downloaded the toolbar and it had CCleaner included with it Eset would flag that just as it should. In the latter case CCleaner would be the added additional program. This was eloquently explained by SweX in post #19 of this thread. https://forum.eset.com/topic/4497-ccleaner/ When 1 out of 57 antiviruses detect it then it clearly is a false positive. Google Chrome and or Google Toolbar are NOT malicious therefore should not be flagged. Even as a PUP. I submitted the file as a false positive already. 99% of toolbars are not malicious or threats. They are merely annoying but easily removed. It's just how Eset is categorizing it.

It's a false positive. Eset needs to address this.

Palemoon is a beta build of Firefox. It's an open source of Firefox. Just Google it. hxxp://www.palemoon.org/

hxxp://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/slim Can you provide a download link please SCR. This is the direct link for the full installer: hxxp://www.piriform.com/ccleaner/download/standard Looks like the Eset needs to address this. Only Eset Nod32 detects it. So it would seem like a false positive to me. https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/6a87e940dc0380a1f5fef889643d77d49835a922d4e0e791bd35e7b738eb8709/analysis/1427905510/ SHA256: 6a87e940dc0380a1f5fef889643d77d49835a922d4e0e791bd35e7b738eb8709 File name: ccsetup504.exe Detection ratio: 1 / 57 Analysis date: 2015-04-01 16:25:10 UTC ( 0 minutes ago )

Unless Handries is downloading from Download.com.

Top download sites to use: hxxp://www.downloadcrew.com/ hxxp://www.filehippo.com/ hxxp://www.filehorse.com/ hxxp://www.majorgeeks.com/ hxxp://www.neowin.net/ hxxp://www.softpedia.com/ Best software updater: https://patchmypc.net/

Exactly. As in matter of fact whenever I setup a new computer for a customer I always installed CCleaner. Never an issue. Piriform is NOT a shady company what so ever. In 10 years of using their products the most I have ever seen is Google Chrome or Google Toolbar pre packaged with the installer. But I always download only from Piriform's website.
