[QUOTE="roger_m, post: 1108459, member: 31436"] It's being detecting as a PUP, not as malware. ESET has fairly aggressive PUP detection, which means it will often classify apps as PUPs that other antiviruses don't. It's important to note that PUPs are not malicious, they are just apps that for some people won't be of much use, which is why they are classified as being potentially unwanted. If you find both of those apps to be useful, then it's fine to keep using them. ESET does give you the option to ignore certain PUPs, or turn off PUP detection altogether, as detailed in the following link.
