marjetika Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 I installed Immunet yesterday, and ran a full scan. 4 files were quarantined. One that I am most concerned is an executable that I actually need. Event Type: Quarantine Successful Detection type: PUA.Win.Adware.Besttoolbars::1201 How can I deal with this information? I tried googling "PUA.Win.Adware.Besttoolbars", and nothing comes up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ritchie58 Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 The detection signifies a "Potentially Unwanted Application" possibly containing Adware/Spyware. Besttoolbars is an application where custom toolbars can be developed for primarily IE & Firefox. Unfortunately this application also can be used to include malicious code to the toolbar browser extension. If your positive that your toolbar is not malicious you could use Immunet's "Restore" feature for the files. Personally speaking, I'd rather saw my own leg off with a dull butter knife than 'use any third-party toolbar' with my browser, lol! That's how much I trust or need 'em. Cheers, Ritchie...
