[QUOTE="kC77, post: 981414, member: 92796"] just grabbed the g-data trial (antivirus only, not the total) on my test VM, installed ok, kind of annoying it needed to update the program after id just installed it by a supposed web installer... and then it had restart apps/service, then 2 minutes later said it needed a windows restart... anyway, extracted from zip 1800 samples from the past 8-10 days to downloads folder.... it did nothing, didnt spot anything by itself.. (i wasnt running malware, just extract to static folder for static scan) but then manually ran a scan on the folder, and sure enough it picked up a lot 1712 of the samples, missing 80 or so i clicked on execute actions to quarantine.... and it just sat there for an hour, doing nothing, restarted machine, same again, it detects and finds the items quick,. but cannot remove them. I then rebooted again and attempted to uninstall... up popped a website "gdata has been uninstalled", minimized and in the background was this.....
