[QUOTE="denn, post: 757734, member: 74312"] i thought i would keep you updated about something. i did some things and now there is a file called [B]hosts.20180815-235836.backup in C:\WINDOWS and [B]C:\Users\MyPcName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Recent[/B][/B] . it still contains the same things the original hosts file with [B]Trojan.Agent.E.Generic contained but malwarebytes doesnt recognize it as a threat. i thought it was bizarre and wanted to share. i also want to show you the backup hosts. i cant attach them for some reason i think its because they are not in file form. ill just copy paste it. [B]C:\WINDOWS one is 444KB and the other one is 1KB but they both contain the same thing. let me copy paste it. thank you for your time. (it said the message was too long, shorten it so i couldnt post it it the but the main idea is there. bunch of sites with 127.0.0.1 in front.)[/B][/B] [/QUOTE]
