Microsoft(r) Windows Based Script Host

Hi,
Recently I have noticed I have this new program that did appeared in my Application Filtering list.

I never install anything like that, should I worry or is it simply another legitimate program that is using this?

Thanks for help

 

Well, it should not "appear" somehow by itself. Did you actively allow the application? I would turn it off and see what happens

Hi Thomas M, no I did not allow this application, that's what I don't understand

 

There were some instances, where LnS users clicked ones on the allow application button, and afterwards they just forgot about it


Since you have no idea WHY this application is allowed, I would simply deactivate it in Application filtering.

In addition you could run some virus/trojan tests using different vendors/engines.

Good luck,
Thomas

 

Thanks Thomas M,

I know my PC is clean, that was the first thing I did, checking if I was infected with some nasties.

I will deactivate this application anyhow, but just for curiosity I wonder if Frederic could come with a answer or comment this.

 

Hi Antarctica

Regardless you allow or block, it’ll still make an entry in the Application Filtering list.

Is it with connecting flag rights? Or simply launching flag rights? or both?

 

You could directly send an E-Mail to him:

P.S: How do you know for sure that your machine is clean? These currently hot discussed rootkits are very clever! Don't trust standard AV-/Trojan-horse detectors

 

Hi PhantOm,
good to see you
Maybe you can shine some light on this one! So, this application is part of your new rule-set installer? Interesting!
