Privacy, that quaint myth we were once taught to revere, is no more. It wasn’t assassinated in the dark—it was euthanized in broad daylight. We clicked “I agree” like mourners signing the death certificate of our digital soul. Now, instead of protecting ourselves, we reveal our secrets to the algorithms—like confessions in a church with no priest, only the Terms of Service. — Where were you last night? — Google already has the evidence. — What’s on your mind? — Meta called it. — And your...

Thread 'Unfamiliar security warning by Google on Edge'
Tried to visit this website (egydead.skin) an hour ago, I have got this warning on Edge: It never has a similar one before. Trying again few minutes ago, the website loads normally; checked its certificate, it is valid: Is this a true warning by Google or some sort of scam?

It's November 11, 2025, and for Windows home users ready to level up from free AV, paid suites deliver powerhouse extras like unlimited VPNs, identity monitoring, ransomware rollback, and parental controls – all while nailing 99%+ threat detection amid AI-phishing surges (442% per IRONSCALES Q3 2025) and ransomware costs at $1.5M avg recovery (Sophos 2025). But at $30-60/year, which one's your sweet spot? We've crunched the freshest lab data from AV-Test (Aug 2025), AV-Comparatives (Sept...
It's November 11, 2025, and for Windows home users on a budget, free AV is more crucial than ever with AI-phishing up 442% (IRONSCALES Q3 2025) and ransomware recovery costs averaging $1.5M (Sophos 2025). Microsoft Defender is the silent default, but third-party free tools bring web shields, extras, or on-demand cleanup. Note: True "antivirus" means real-time protection; on-demand scanners like Malwarebytes, TotalAV Free, or AdwCleaner are great boosters but not full AVs – pair them with...

MT uses QUIC: If you do not want your browser to use QUIC, you must disable it.

Good morning y'all, hope to find you well. I'm curious wether MalwareTips' users use any kind of default-deny approach in their systems. This includes an anti-executable like CyberLock, an Application Control module like Kaspersky's, a hardener like Hard_Configurator, any SRP software, or even your own implemented policies. If you do, what do you use? If you don't, why don't you think it's necessary? Cheers :)
Administrator protection If possible, please provide an explanation. Thank you. P.S. Multiple votes are possible for PCs other than the one you normally use.
Thread 'What is the longest duration you have observed for a vendor to ultimately verdict a False Negative as malware?'
Last year, it took Avast more than 3 months to finally detect a false negative fake 360, which had been VT 30+ or maybe more for a long time, as malware. This time we talk about MD. Although not been that long until now. It has been a few weeks since I submitted the following false negative fake APP to Microsoft, and I resubmitted it again this week, but MD just missed it. Is it common, and does it happen often to all vendors? The sample: VirusTotal Anyrun report: Analysis...

Hey MalwareTips community, In 2025, with cyber threats like zero-days, ransomware, and AI-powered attacks on the rise, Host-based Intrusion Prevention Systems (HIPS) are still a thing in many antivirus suites for Windows. HIPS monitors running processes, files, and registry keys using behavioral analysis to block suspicious activity in real-time, going beyond signature-based detection. Tools like ESET's HIPS (updated as of June 2025) protect against malware trying to tamper with your...
