    Default Two Infections found-Win32.NrgBot.rtk.

    #3- Don't know what is going on!!!!
    I downloaded 11/23/2011 def updates and ran a scan on my Win 7 (64-Bit) computer and the scan came up with these two infections. Does anyone know what they might refer to? The state that they are Gateway Games, etc. (This is a Gateway computer).
    Could they be false/positives? What should I do with them?
    I didn't do anything with them, I just closed the S&D program.

    I am new at all of this and so not too familiar with what is going on.
    I tried to Edit my thread, but was unable to do so.
    You explanation is very confusing to me. Where do I send the "screen-shot"

    The box in the middle reads:
    Fileinfection detected removing these may damaga your computer. If possible restart to a clean restore point or system backup.

    ((I really don't want to do a System Restore if I don't have to!)

    I just had the same "problem" today, i.e. Win32.NrgBot.rtk. I DO NOT have it on a Gateway computer, but can't find any reference to it on any other AV site. I haven't done anything with it yet either. Just bide my time for a day or two and see if anyone comes up with an explanation.

    Re False Positive Report: I got the same infection message as alicez
    Windows 7
    Both Win Ex & Firefox is used on the computer
    1.6.2.46
    updated today, November 23, 2011
    appeared as a scan result

    Unhappy False Positives

    I have the same problem as the people above. It seemed to come from Spybot S & D itself because it only came after I updated. Before that I had Double Click and I still have double click and it will not go at all. I have scanned with spybot and removed these infections 20 times today alone and nothing happens. I have re-booted my computer and everything else. I also have a gateway computer, windows 7 and it is saying it is in the Gateway Game Console.

    I posted in a different forum but got no reply

    Default False Positives

    By the way I wanted to mention that my screen looks exactly like the one above. I have wasted the whole day on this. Please explain where I can send the logs. I have sent an email to support with the log on it and last week I got the Double Click thing and I sent an email to support with the log and still had no reply to either.

    Hello,

    Win32.NrgBot.rtk has the ability to attach itself to legit files, thus infecting them.
    Since your reports indicate a possibe false positive with Gateway Game Console please do the following to make sure it is only a false positive:
    • right click the scan result within Spybot S&D and save a full report
    • zip the files in question and attach both the full report and the zipped files to an email addressed at detections@spybot.info
    • link this thread in you email for quick reference

    I also had the same problem today on a Win 7 computer although I have it in HP Game Console. Updated and scanned Win XP computer and it was ok. After detection Spybot got hung up scanning and I had to close it.

    I also had this issue, but I removed HP Game Console, and it then disappeared.
