Hi Defenders !
i visited a site (
https://librewolf.net/installation/windows/
) but when i clicked the download here :
it tried to download the file through my browser ( chrome ) instead of using internet download manager, but all of the sudden the download process became auto paused. chrome did not download that file ( made 2 unsuccessful attempts , but hitting play resumed the download ).
Firefox did not paused it and downloaded it.
i tried to install the librewolf through the downloaded exe but my win 10 pro's warning window popped up and informed me that windows does not recognize the publisher of that file. i used snipping tool to generate a screenshot of that thing, performing right click on the screenshot did not work, and most of my clicks on various softwares gone wasted , not completely but my pc was partially halted.
suddenly i noticed a strange icon on my desktop ( dunno when it was created but it was Not here few rs ago ) named as pc_data. It contains strange icons that are irrelevant to my PC:
There was a Firefox related strange folder on my desktop which i do not recognize.
anyhow i tried to upload on bitdefender's website :
https://www.bitdefender.com/consumer/support/answer/29358/#
but that site has 25 mb's upload limit.
submitted on virus total : https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/c8add85fa7d7d301311545e6515ad44fc3fb0f0da988230e9521f50faaa3080d
Here are there results :
All of the security solutions missed that malicious file except one. plz provide me a special link which may help me to upload the suspicious file as its presence on my pc is dangerous.
bitdefender's system scan and my custom scan ( configured to scan all files ) found my pc clean.
Important:
it started after the uninstallation of bitdefender with bitdefender 2023's uninstall tool in win 10 pro's safe mod , which just partially uninstalled bitdefender.. then i installed zone alarm extreme , then got a new license of bitdefender premium and shuffled the security solution once again. now using bitdefender..
