Win32:MalOb-IJ [Cryp] GOG Galaxy Client spam?
« on: June 16, 2015, 12:53:06 AM »
Today I started getting the following error  dozens of times

In the time span of about 20 minuits or so I got well over 200 events, Avast saying that it blocked them all.

Is this a false positive, or am I being attacked, or is this a normal GOG Galaxy process?

Any help would be great.

I have the three logs, cannot get the aswmbr to finish its scan without crashing.

Thanks for any help.

Hello,

The detection is related to GOG.com, a video game distributed through the GOG online portal and can be run from the optional download manager.

I don't know why avast! flags this (it is a Mal-Generetic routine) so, most likely FP. This is what avast! flags:

- registry Run key, value 'GalaxyClient' with path of C:\Program Files (x86)\GalaxyClient\GalaxyClient.exe, 7457336 bytes, created at  2015-05-28 by GOG.com.

This is your legit installer, take a note of time being...

2015-05-25 13:44 - 2015-05-25 13:44 - 62776056 _____ (GOG.com ) C:\Users\MFive\Downloads\setup_galaxy_1.0.2.958 (1).exe
2015-05-25 13:43 - 2015-05-25 13:43 - 62776056 _____ (GOG.com ) C:\Users\MFive\Downloads\setup_galaxy_1.0.2.958.exe



You have a lots of game installed from that portal so the best thing is to contact and talk to "avast! contact us" web support and ask them to remove the FP.
