class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\"><strong>In simple terms, FileRepMalware is a malicious file and a potential threat to computers according to&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcrisk.com\/top-antivirus\/14233-avast-internet-security\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Avast<\/a>, AVG, and other third-party anti-virus suites. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Previously this malware was known as&nbsp;<strong>Win32: Evo-gen <\/strong>and was associated with a corrupt KMSpico-a tool used to activate Windows without purchasing.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">The Avast scans will associate a file the FileRepMalware status if some conditions are met;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol><li><strong>The file does not appear on the anti-virus clean set<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>File has a limited number of downloads<\/strong><\/li><li><strong>The file has not been claimed by any publisher <\/strong><\/li><li><strong>Dubious signature <\/strong><\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">This malware is known to cause <strong>decreased computer performance<\/strong>, allows<strong> browsers to track user searches<\/strong> which is a serious breach of privacy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">However, it is no where near the top most malicious malware that is out there. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Furthermore, research statements suggest that it is only capable of <strong>installing adware<\/strong> while having to inflict<strong> no trojan level damage. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_the_security_threat_real\"><\/span>Is the security threat real?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Once the user executes a FileRepMalware class file they might eventually notice seeing suspicious advertisements while browsing and unwanted browser redirects. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Furthermore, these suspicious advertisements (not originating from the sites you are browsing) often lead to malicious websites that run scripts that download and install malware such as adware onto the computer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">This malware then invades user privacy by storing various user information that includes personal data. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Moreover, Internet Protocol (IP) addresses, Internet service providers (ISPs), geo-locations, URLs visited, search engine searches, pages viewed, keystrokes, and other collected data is later shared with other firms to utilize this information for their benefit such as targeted marketing. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Users end up with a barrage of advertisements &#8216;mysteriously&#8217; resembling what they are searching for over the internet. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Not only this but personal information collection and sharing can result in credit-card frauds being committed over the internet by unsuspecting e-shoppers. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Therefore, we believe this matter should be seriously dealt. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Armed with all this information, you should make it a priority to remove tracking &amp; adware applications immediately to prevent a greater loss in the future. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_about_false_positives\"><\/span>What about false positives?<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Sometimes what happens is that the anti-virus software will flag a particular file as suspicious although that does not indicate whether that file is a real threat. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Avast will notoriously assign a FileRepMalware tag to a file that has not been downloaded by many users.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">This does not tell the user how dangerous a particular file is rather it just emphasizes its unpopularity among other Avast users. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">Similarly, this also happens with other cracked applications that are not a threat. Avast will flag that application resulting in a false positive. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">To be absolutely sure whether a file is a threat or not we prefer to upload the file to VirusTotal. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">VirusTotal is an application that checks files for being suspected of potential malware with 50+ malware scanners. Moreover, if a threat is unearthed the application declares it as a threat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-medium-font-size\">In order to test a file with VirusTotal, visit this link <a href=\"https:\/\/www.virustotal.com\/gui\/home\/uploa\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\">here<\/a>. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"aligncenter size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"979\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-21269\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal.jpg 979w, https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal-300x153.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal-768x391.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal-580x295.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal-860x437.jpg 860w, https:\/\/www.techacker.net\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/06\/virustotal-560x285.jpg 560w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 979px) 100vw, 979px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote\"><p><strong><em>Chromium is <\/em>potential adware.
