Well, both an Avira and MB scan gave me the okay. But now Avira is stealing all my CPU https://imgur.com/oXzn3Pk It just now disabled itself, what the hell is happening?

I was playing games with a friend online and I started lagging heavily. We started the usual routine of alt-tabbing and checking our task manager to see whose fault it was and I noticed rundll32 (location: /Windows/system32, on W8.1) was at high disk and network usage. Things stabilized after a...

I'm interested in this, bump to get more answers other than tinfoil hat talk

Might as well use this topic again I tinkered with the suspicious software a bit and even putting in into Avira's exceptions and straight up removing the euristic module running the exe gives me a windows error saying there isn't enough memroy available to run the service. Both PCs I tried with...

Yep I'd say adblock plus too. Made me forget ads exist on the internet

I think I'll settle on youtube-dl, which seems perfectly secure being open source and all. Still thanks for the inputs!

My personal combo is Avira + Malwarebytes. MB is not PRO, if you use the PRO version disable the real-time security. I also find very useful extensions like adblock, Chrome download manager (just to make it easier to block a possible exe which is downloading by itself) and Web of Trust. Adblock...

Bare functionality is good too, I just need to be able to download videos (so not just sound. Whether there is sound or not doesn't matter as long as there is video) and possibily have a bit of choice in format (lmp4 and wav would be ideal). I've found flvto as a website but it opens up a bunch...

thank you so much, I did some research and I figured it was something like that but I still found weird HEUR/APC (Cloud) had its own Avira database page like a full blown malware. Thanks again!

I downloaded a utility tool to mod a game which is widely known and used in that game's community, got straight from the developer's direct link. I scanned it before running it with both Avira and MB (like I do with EVERYTHING I download) and found nothing. But as soon as I ran it Avira blocked...

Is there a free software though?

I'm pretty sure I have some malware or virus in my PC: weird processes in my Task Manager (like TWO rundll32.exe, and when I click on any of them and select "Open process's path" it does absolutely nothing), a window showing files copying without me doing anything etc etc, but both Avira and MB...

Bump

Hi I have a HP Pavillion dv6 2193el notebook that worked fine and dandy until yesterday. Today, sincebooting, it's just immensely slow. The cursor appears when I login but the screen stays black for another minute before loading the icons, trying to open a folder or anything takes another minute...
