kudos:7 | MBAM false positive on MSI Afterburner? Has anyone ever seen this recently/today? I recently installed Win7 64 Pro from scratch as it had been about 18 months since my last install and drivers were breaking that could not be fixed by a driver reinstall. A fresh install fixed the errors I was seeing.
I went through a laundry list of reinstalls, including Afterburner. As I am fairly confident of my user opsec, and really do nothing on the computer but gaming and browsing DSLR, I am skeptical of being infected. Running premium MBAM + MSE (maybe that needs to change due to the latest curfluffle over MSE's 0-day detection) + free SAS.

If you were trying to uninstall the software, then I'd guess it was a PUPS detection.
If you were not doing anything with MSI afterburner at all, an "uninstall.exe" (software uninstaller) detection would be a false.

kudos:7 | Yeah, I had just booted up the machine and hadn't done anything, so it probably would be false. |

Just add it to the ignore list.
If you want you can submit it to VirusTotal for peace of mind to give the all clear.

kudos:7 | Now MBAM is freaking out over the FRAPS uninstall exe. I bet something went wrong with an MBAM update... |

I quarantined it while investigating. MBAM won't restore it but so far seems unneeded. |

Has anyone reported this to the team at MBAM via the forum? |

Are are quite a few reputable people (moderators) looking after the forums that will help.
Just post a topic with a link to this topic and upload the files in question.

How did you go?
I downloaded and installed the software and could not reproduce the detection.
