ふしぎの国のアリス Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Paint.net is running normally for me, however my most recent Malwarebytes scan lists several plugins as "Trojan.Inject" My other security software (AVG, etc) says the Paint.net program folder is clean. I think it's most likely a false positive but I would like to know if anyone else has gotten the same scan results. If so, did you remove the files? (I know it's the plugins, not Paint.net, causing the issue but it seems less efficient to ask in five different plugin threads if others have encountered this problem.)

pdnnoob Posted February 27, 2012 Share Posted February 27, 2012 Did you download the plugins from this forum? If so, you should be ok. If you downloaded them from elsewhere, I would delete them.

ふしぎの国のアリス Posted February 28, 2012 Author Share Posted February 28, 2012 Did you download the plugins from this forum? If so, you should be ok. If you downloaded them from elsewhere, I would delete them. I get all my plugins via the forum, though IIRC some do prompt a visit to the author's site to download them.

BoltBait Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 You may wish to contact the vendor of the anti-virus software as they may want to inspect these files. If indeed they are false-positives, they'll want to correct their software.

Rick Brewster Posted February 28, 2012 Share Posted February 28, 2012 Just use Microsoft Security Essentials. "Malwarebytes Anti-malware" is known to be a bit over-zealous, reporting all sorts of things so that you think you got your money's worth.
