I have a 5-6 moths old laptop. I have a issue like laptop dies at battery 7% and also cooling fans operates fast. And laptop gets overheat and I also contacted hp care for the issue but they said laptop is clean. I did downloaded games from pirated sites and surfed random sites. So I think I have got virus. Today I was just going through settings. And found this. Is it safe ? . I want to do clean reinstall. Can anyone help??
Same story like everyone else, tried to update pirate game and accidentally ran setup.exe in a zip file, 14 hours later my discord and instagram sent some mrbeast scam to everyone.
After that I changed all my password thru phone, ran malwarebytes scan and I found these:
QUARANTINED.
I am not computer expert but I guess the hacker make my PC upload all my token every X hours? I don't know if I am safe...
I can't flash a new Windows now, I am running a project, Please help 😫
EDIT:
I did follow the guide on the others comment and uploaded frst and addition to the site.

Hi I clicked something by accident on Facebook and now I’m seeing this. I haves tried pressing escape to see if it’s just a window but nothing. Please please please help me immediately
Had a virus for a few years explain this to me as I'm kinda not very smart at tech
for context, i couldnt afford a switch so i tried emulating the game it was okay for a few days, but then i woke up to my friends sending me screenshots of my ig story containing the mrbeast scam. what i did was log out of all my accounts on my desktop, changed my passwords and enabled 2FA on all of them then downloaded and ran malware bytes.
all of the threads i saw recommended reinstalling windows but unfortunately, that is not an option for me since i have a lot of files on my laptop that i use for school. i am also running microsoft malicious software removal tool but i am still very anxious.
can someone help me? i am feeling very down because of this and wont try to emulate any game from now on
edit: i was completely safe using the emulator and the nsp file i got from zipterto. however, i was dumb and sleepy and mustve accidentally clicked on this: vlc-media-player-3.0.23-installer_ZP-lb61.exe last night and that's what got me infected the following morning.
My computer got trojan in late April, and I luckily manage to recover every single account that got compromised. I also have already nuked my PC and reinstalled windows, and I'd say all is good now. I have changed my passwords everywhere, added 2FA wherever I could, and everything has been quiet every since. And yet, just an hour ago I received a gmail notification of someone trying to log into my Microsoft account (the only one which I forgot to turn 2FA on) despite me already changing its password. It's already been almost a month since my PC got that trojan, so I really was caught off guard. They failed (hopefully) and I changed it's password again just to be safe and added 2FA.
I am just wondering how long usually do people will still attempt to access my accounts? I mean, I don't mind changing passwords every time in a while of course, but I just want to be more prepared and stop panicking whenever I see notifications like that. (Sorry if it's confusing, English is not my first language and I'm not well-versed in this topic)
So I downloaded the file for a game but it when I put it in virustotal it said it was a trojan virus I went to zarchiver and Deleted immediately without running it
I stumbled upon a very suspicious looking script when looking at the startup apps in the registry editor, running a python file full of obfuscated b64 encoded code. So I decoded it, found it was downloading a payload from pastebin, and eventually found after a couple more steps it would run a crypto stealer and keylogger script.
So obviously I've deleted the program and restarted my PC. But what now? I don't use crypto, so I'm fine there. I'm going to go and change all my passwords (on another device just in case), but what else should I be doing to make sure I'm in the clear? Is a full wipe of the PC needed? Malwarebytes scans don't detect anything, but they already didn't detect this when it was there, and my PC was infected for at least a few weeks based on the script's Last Modified date.
I downloaded A wrong Link from Fitgirl yesterday and Now all of my socials are getting hacked one by one and sending people crypto messages PLEASE SOMEONE HELP ME HOW TO DEAL WITH THAT !
I know this problem shows up every once in a while but I really need Help!!
I fell for the Fake Captcha (windows + r, ctrl + v) infostealer a few days ago... I managed to change all my passwords on a clean device right away and turned on 2FA on everything. So far all my accounts are ok and show no suspicious activity.
I sent the infected PC to a technician who has helped me before to nuke my PC and do a fresh windows reinstall as recommended, he did backup my files only pictures and .docx, .xls and .pdf before nuking it
Installed windows again and uploaded the files.
I got my PC back, turned it on and BEFORE i logged on any accounts on that PC, I did a Microsoft Defender full scan and found these:
HackTool:BAT / AutoKms
Trojan:Win32/Leonem
I found out that the hacktool was probably used to start windows on my PC... but what worries me is Leonem, I found out it is a spyware/infostealer. Since I have not accessed any accounts on that PC after changing my passwords, I assume that it is OK(?) But I'm still very anxious
WHAT SHOULD I DO??? HELP!
Hi, i had accidentally ran an renpy setup file from a random link while browsing steam underground , in which after i suspect its an info stealer, how do i check if my pc is infected, and if so how can I remove the infostealer?
Yesterday I was attempting to pirate a game, but ended up downloading and running that program with the anime girl. I got a windows defender warning so I closed the program midway, deleted it, and installed Malwarebytes. Malwarebytes came back clean, so I just went on with my day. Today, I woke up to my discord hacked and sending out Mr. Beast crypto images, as well as emails marked as spam for login attempts to my Steam, EA, and Ubisoft accounts. These are accounts that I'm not even logged into so I'm concerned they have all my passwords. I've started changing passowords but wondering if that's the right step, considering I don't know if my computer is still compromised. Any help greatly appreciated, thank you!
Yesterday I stupidly downloaded a exe file thinking it was a Renpy file. It was running until 15% when I closed the client and deleted the entire file off of my PC, but I got my Discord hacked earlier today with the Mr.Beast scam. I did a full scan with Windows Defender and it had a file called "HackTool:Win32/KMSActivator!MTB" that I proceeded to quarantined since I didn't want to make the situation worse by deleting the wrong files. I changed the passwords for my discord and my other important passwords on another device. I took my computer off the internet (at least I think so, I'm not sure how trustworthy turning off wifi is on Windows after getting breached), but I downloaded and did the FRST scan with the exe on a USB transferred to the desktop. I'm not what to do afterwards, but help would be really appreciated!
Just curious because I've had two of my friends the past two days send me the exact same mr beast images. but I'm kinda confused as to how the hackers would get more victims from these images alone? I thought you'd need to download something or click a link for anything to work in discord.
it was called "Mouse Keyboard Clicker Holder"
found it on youtube and downloaded it from the sourceforge website but i just put got a notification when i tried to open it and windows is basically saying its dangerous and unsafe. i put it through virus total and then came across Trojan:Python/ Keylogger idk if its common for autoclickers that also autoclick on keys to have this, idk if its safe or not
So, I recently encountered a Trojan virus on my Raspberry Pi 5. I tried to visit a website like I always do, but I made a typo. Instead of saying "Site not found," it redirected me to another website. It was mostly blank except for a comically large reCaptcha, which I instinctively clicked, then asked me to "click allow to identify" DO NOT CLICK ALLOW. This causes them to give you several notifications (Which I could see they were from the website in the top) that said I had a virus. Do not interact with these, just disable the notifications and you'll be fine. Has anyone encountered this before?
