Administrators Marcos 5,069 Posted September 12, 2018 Administrators Share Posted September 12, 2018 It's a potentially unwanted application. For information what PUAs are, please read https://support.eset.com/kb2629/. The detection is optional. If you think that benefits of using a particular PUA outweigh possible risks, you can exclude it from detection. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Fu 0 Posted September 13, 2018 Author Share Posted September 13, 2018 The https://support.eset.com/kb2629/ is quite generic. Can more detail information provide? Such as the unwanted application will edit the Internet browser setting which allow attacker to inject malicious code to user's endpoint. Thanks.
