plugin-container.exe

[gagliaudo]

Dear Friends,
today Spybot S&D told me what follows:
Spybot S&D met and stopped a process recognised as an malware component
Process ID: 2868
file name: plugin-container.exe
found in: C:\Programmi\Mozilla Firefox
identified with: Morpheus Toolbar

Plugin container is part of Mozilla Firefox, it's not malware;
I have not a toolbar named Morpheus...
A false positive???

Thanks a lot for an answer, Paolo

Hello,

this appears to be a false positive caused by the TeaTimer component, please try the following:

• make sure to have the latest updates for Spybot S&D
• then restart your computer

The TeaTimer should not detect the plugin-container.exe as Morpheus Toolbar, if it does that again please send in the plugin-container.exe to detections@spybot.info with a reference to this thread.
