[QUOTE="Victor M, post: 1045996, member: 96560"] I did a test with the hacker. I installed a fresh Windows 11, installed VoodooShield and while I was registering Voodoo , and Windows Update does it's preliminary update downloading some drivers as it always does for a new Windows install upon going online. Voodoo poped up a diaglog about a Realtek thing signed and verified. And so I OK'd that dialog. Imeadiately the malware RAT interfered with my keyboard, and I wasn't able to use some keys. So, I had no choice but to reinstall Windows 11. Installed Voodoo and OSArmor. Went online to register Voodoo. And Windows Update was at it again as usual. Then the Realtek thing dialog by Voodoo poped up again. This time I Blocked it, even though Voodoo said it was Safe. Then I encountered no more trouble. 2 things I gathered out of this episode. Hackers have access to a Realtek cert and can sign apps using it. The Windows Update protocol is broken. The attacker was inserting his ware into the downloads and making it run. [/QUOTE]
