Just ran a scan and it detected all of my vst's (virtual instruments for music production, .dll's) and the folder they were in as trojans (tr.ursu) which I assume is a false positive? I can see no reason as to why they would suddenly have become malicious

Hi Trombyl,

This indeed looks like a false positive.
Could you please attach RogueKiller scan report with your next reply ?

Regards.

Hi Toomuch_,

Thanks for your feedback and welcome to Adlice.com Forum.
Could you please make an archive of these three files and attach it with your next reply ?

They are indeed part of Absolute Computrace, which can be used with malicious intents : Absolute Computrace Revisited
Is a Computrace module displayed in your computer BIOS/EFI ?

Regards.

Here are the three files attached and compressed. Absolute was offered by my OEM manufacturer at the time of purchase HP (Spectre X360). I installed it myself, so I assume it will show up in the UEFI however, I haven't checked. I can say that my laptop is still active and being tracked on the Absolute web portal.

Hi Toomuch_,

Thanks for your feedback again.

These files are indeed part of the legit Absolute software. However, since these files can be present on computers where the user has not installed the software (Kaspersky's article) or was even used maliciously (bootkit Lojax, see Lojack Becomes a Double-Agent) we decided not to remove the detections.

However, it will now be classified as PUP (Potentially Unwanted Software) in lieu of Trojan since, like in your case, it can have legitimate purposes.
Thank for your understanding.

Regards.
