Malware detection in clogitec.com
« on: January 11, 2020, 06:19:26 PM »
Hello there,

Since a few days, Avast repeatedly notify me having blocked a connection to clogitec.com, with the reason being that it is infected by "Other: Malware-gen[Trj]" in the processus Firefox.exe. Problem is that I never tried to connect to this website (I don't know what it is), so I supposed it's another problem. When I scan with Avast and Malwarebytes, nothing is found ; I tried also in safe mode, but Malwarebytes found nothing, and Avast don't want to work...
I'm with Windows 8 64 bits, my navigator is Firefox 72.0.1.

Thanks in advance for your help and sorry for my english if I made mistakes.

The URL name ( clogitec ) sounds like a fake Logitech website ?

Could be why it is Blacklisted

Could also be why it is taken down

-Scanning in safe mode does not have any detection advantages, what it give you is removal advantages if you have problems removing something that is already detected

-avast have boot scan

-Malwarebytes is not designed to be run in safe mode, it will run but all drivers are not loaded so will run crippled

Pondus,

Detection was still there a day ago, but now you will get a 403 error for that site.
Cloudflare took it down, but still that IP relations scan shows it at VT IP relations scan results.

Hello,
So I reported a false positive, as bob tells me. I suppose I have to wait a bit to see a change (for it continues to be detected, in the mean time) ?

Since it is blacklisted and taken down (not online anymore) i think detection is/was correct
You may have some crap in your browser that try to connect to that URL

In Firefox open this address:

about:serviceworkers

and delete/unregister all listed entries.

I try, but it changes nothing. Avast continues to detect the connection.
