View Full Version : someone has injected malicious code into this application
Got that message after recent antiroot kits added from Spybot. Used McAfee virus and antispyware, superantispyware, avg antivirus, and spybot. They found nothing. Any ideas?

Got that message after recent antiroot kits added from Spybot.
Was that message from a e-mail? It may be a prank or a spam in that case. Your information is too vague.
I figured it (see linked image) to be merely a crossed communication during an update - while Update.exe was getting the download, I 'excluded' the anti-rootkit plug-ins that were pre-checked (XP and Vista users, DO*NOT*EXCLUDE these updates if autochecked .. merely a personal choice for me and I certainly don't recommend excluding for anyone else!). After closing Update.exe, I re-opened it from inside SSD and everything went smoothly when I didn't interfere with the update process the second time. Quite possibly I may have been the "outsider" :oops: on the 1st anomalous update attempt.

Which version of Spybot are you using as I seem to remember that there was a bug in an earlier release of the 1.5 series that was caused by a bit of dodgy code that was designed for Windows testing purposes but proved so unreliable it was removed.
Using Spybot 1.5.2.20. The screenshot in the second post above is exactly what I received. Seemed to coming from Spybot. But I included the three antiroot plugins.
