Am I infected?
January 26th, 2020
I downloaded this:
http://www.google.com?t=4380299&highlight=
and ran it as administrator.
A few seconds after having started the exe, my Bitdefender Total Security 2010 detected a malicious acitvity or something like that and asked me to block it – so i blocked it.
Am I infected now? (Because I did run the .exe)
Thanks…
i would say yes. nod32 stopped it before it could even finish downloading for me to test it.

Esset stopped it before i could download it.
Try to always download from respected long time members. (Not from newbies who joined just days ago)
A lesson learned hopefully. Also hope your PC is OK! ATB
thanks a lot
So BitDefender is that bad?
I use bitdefender online scan quite a lot. It gets things that esset misses.
Sounds like its done its job and got whatever was trying to infect your PC
here’s what Virustotal made of it:

Win32 is pain in the ass.
AVG and MSE stopped these.
I am formatting right now and will install Norton then, I think. Thank you! Edit: Stupid question maybe, but is my usb-stick, that was plugged in, also infected?
i dnt think u are infected…bitdeffender blocked it rite?
It said so, but the exe could be started.
the usb could be infected if the virus got through but if bitdefender stopped it then you didn’t get infected by the win7 loader virus also norton is a resource hog i’d recommend avg or avast or malwarebytes .
