Canary Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 When I Scanned for Issues with Ccleaner, it found two entries marked "Andreas Haak". Does this mean anything to anyone? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators hazelnut Posted August 12, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 12, 2006 I believe he is a real person who makes scanners against trojans. Once someone used his name in a worm though.

TonyKlein Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 As Hazelnut already said, he's the creator of A-Squared anti-trojan software: http://www.emsisoft.com/en/ Sounds familiar to you? Otherwise, right-click the entry in question in the CC Issues Results list, and choose 'Open in RegEdit'. In Regedit, rightclick the subkey ('folder') in question, and choose "Export > as txtfile" Post the contents of that textfile in your reply.

Moderators rridgely Posted August 12, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 12, 2006 Ah, thanks for the link. I forgot all about a-squared and forgot to be on the lookout for updates. Apparently they just updated it to 2.0 so I'll give it a shot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Moderators rridgely Posted August 13, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 13, 2006 I downloaded it and It's ok. I don't like the fact that it keeps making me log in every time I open in. It hasn't detected anything so maybe its false positive problem has been fixed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators rridgely Posted August 13, 2006 Moderators Share Posted August 13, 2006 Well I spoke to soon: True its PSKill(thats what ccleaner was getting detected for) but none of the other programs I've run on this pc has detected it.(about everything available ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tarun Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 Tried it on my VPC, so many false positives it's a joke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyKlein Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 I've heard that before about A2... You know, if you're running a good antivirus, there are not many AT's that represent a true boost in your level of protection. I've tried TrojanHunter, had TDS-3 installed for years in tandem with BOClean, and I have to say that BOClean is the one I recommend above all. It has a huge database, updates often, and support is absolutely first rate. Tony CLSID List - A Collection of Autostart Locations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Canary Posted August 13, 2006 Author Share Posted August 13, 2006 I have A-Squared on my computer, so that'll be where it came from, I guess. Thanks for your help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TonyKlein Posted August 14, 2006 Share Posted August 14, 2006 You're very welcome, and sorry we subsequently forgot ALL about your original question... LOL!
