Kumbas Posted May 28, 2016 Share Posted May 28, 2016 So i installed Windows 10 but i don't like some of the sending crap to Microsoft deal, i was watching a video on how to disable some of the things that Microsoft uses to send data and information to them and was wondering if it would trigger anything. The video below https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1kGMCfb2xw This is the program, don't really know to much about it. https://forums.spybot.info/downloads.php?id=55 Virustotal Scan: https://www.virustotal.com/en/file/6fd2790363b576a19858b2e67483bb4a578c6b00bda8a9c5ea6e93e789cd71e4/analysis/1464411765/ Its called spybot Anti-Beacon: Spybot Anti-Beacon for Windows 10 is a small utility designed to block and stop the various tracking (aka telemetry) issues that come with Windows 10. Seeing the bunch of incomplete or broken scripts to disable tracking in Windows 10, and the tools that install adware or worse in exchange for their function, we wrapped disabling tracking up in a small tool that’s free and clean. With the upcoming news about telemetry in Windows 7 and 8.1, Spybot Anti-Beacon has added support for those as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CU - DizzyKipper Posted July 29, 2020 Share Posted July 29, 2020 Windows Defender kindly replaced my modified hosts file this morning, wrapped up in a detected malware warning: Quote Windows Defender Antivirus has detected malware or other potentially unwanted software. For more information please see the following:https://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?linkid=37020&name=SettingsModifier:Win32/HostsFileHijack&threatid=265754&enterprise=0 Name: SettingsModifier:Win32/HostsFileHijack ID: 265754 Severity: Severe Category: Settings Modifier Path: file:_C:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts Detection Origin: Local machine Detection Type: Concrete Detection Source: System User: NT AUTHORITY\SYSTEM Process Name: Unknown Security intelligence Version: AV: 1.321.98.0, AS: 1.321.98.0, NIS: 1.321.98.0 Engine Version: AM: 1.1.17300.4, NIS: 1.1.17300.4 This was taken from event viewer, since the taskbar warning would show me unless I signed in with a MS account, which I never made for windoze. It's apparently because MS don't like the fact you're blocking them. You can exclude the file, but at your own risk. Thoughts? Here are some links on it.https://www.reddit.com/r/techsupport/comments/hvxu40/windows_defender_and/https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/protect/forum/all/settingsmodifierwin32hostsfilehijack/dab53827-1226-46ee-95a7-3e8e78a49f11?page=1https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/262099-hostsfilehijack/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
