View Full Version : Fixed: False Positive-Eblaster- vbcards.dll

I recieved what i believe to be a false positive for the eblaster.

It claims vbcards.dll is eblaster. My winntsystem32 folder does not have the 2 files eblaster is supposed to create there.

vbcards.dll is a windows dll that has something to do with the card backs on freecell among other unknown chores.

I have searched and i did not find any matches to anyone mentioning this dll file so i thought i should post.

New here so i don't know what info i should post.

The F.P. came after a full scan. When i right click the file and scan it , Spybot discovers nothing.

It only happens on a full scan, which i have run 3 and it pops up every time.

vbcards.dll is 176kbs although i have seen where it has different file sizes(pehaps when card backs are created?)

Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.

Thank you for your fast response and help throughout. I'll wait for the new update before i run another scan. I'm very happy it was a false positive and that I don't have a spyware.

Thank you for keeping Spybot free for those of us who are struggling right now! It is very much appreciated!

I just got the newsest update, ran a scan, and it came up clean. Thanks for fixing this so fast! Amazing, people who care. It's hard to find that today.

Well, i guess this is it for me on the forums. I doubt that i will find another FP.

Great experience here. 2 thumbs up! Or whatever you say in germany.

Have a great day.
