ADHS

The recent battlefield in ukraine, has revealed a hidden force that is fighting at the present wars and have a significant role in: Electronic. Drones, Satellites, etc. I think it will be a good idea to include this role in a new or an existence DCS module.

Hello. After last update (DCS 2.8.3.38090 Open Beta), some of the buildings are overlapping at this Sochi-Adler airport area. This is my favorite spot for helicopters . Thank you.

BIGNEWY Thank you very much Once there is official answer from ED i will recontact ESET to double check with them and i will let you all know.

draconus ESET didn't replied anything as false alert. Did this has been tested by ED Team ? BIGNEWY said: "Personally not seeing a problem" and i still got problem with it.

Dangerzone We can't know if there is a threat or not by our own. This is why we are using internet security software, to do this instead of us. This is why i've expressed my opinion, while this is an identified trojan threat, found in official DCS update, to me and to others. And from the time that there is problem, we have to solve it and is not a matter NOT TO from reputation point of view. All do mistakes. So: This is supposed a forum to discuss problems for Combined Arms. But there is no OFFICIAL answer or comment from any OFFICIALS. Means that this problem hasn't be REPORTED to be checked by ED yet. This is why we all are just filling up a thread with personal ASSUMPTIONS of any kind that in the final they don't give a secure answer to anyone what or not to do. How many times we all somehow search for a solution in a problem and we've follow total wrong advises ? that lead us to danger and security risks or nonsense such as reinstall software and windows again, format your hard drives, buy a new PC or better buy a car ? So if someone read here and follow to allow/ignore this threat to be installed and latter on will regret it ? Better to be warned. Thank you. PS: I fully agree with your points and i fully respect your way to express them. Forums need persons like you to keep the balance. I have already uninstall the module and i will try reinstall it after next update, till there will be no warning.

Are you sure ?! You don't know that there is "interactive mode" also ? Show some RESPECT to all Members that have the same problem here, this that you call "tin foil hat stories". Are you a Moderator or ED Team member or Support Team member ?

I understand what you mean as i did compile some code that it's behavior taken as a trojan. Indeed i fully trust ESET and it's decision to quarantine this file and as the link shows, this trojan is active till 2018 so there was no something new after i send the file for analysis. As i've mentioned before there was similar trojan problem with Gazelle module that was fixed by ED update later on. It will be good if ED will take a look at it also, so to save us long assumptions, but (personally) i don't rely in such actions.

ESET is analyzing every file: or during download or before direct execution or before a call to be execute or to be read. This one is a .dll. Means that it will be called to be used/read later on. But it is infected with this trojan. ESET checking every file for possible infection and only if finds an infected one, is blocking the file from be executed/read and then moves it to the quarantine.

File submitted for analysis. It is a TROJAN. https://www.virusradar.com/en/Win64_Packed.VMProtect.L/description

It's the same file. ESET quarantines every threat, every time as a single individual event. So don't worry for multi threats. The last one (top) is after you decided to ignore the threat and allowed it to be installed. The others (till 12:19:39 PM) are the attempts that you decided the threat to be clean. They all quarantined, none managed to pass through, but this affects DCS to act differently as it misses files to run properly.

https://www.virusradar.com/en/Win64_Packed.VMProtect.L/description It is a TROJAN. The problem continues after the last update 17-Mar-23 also, but is worst. No terrains found and some other modules went in OFFLINE mode. CombinedArms.dll was blocked and quarantined by ESET during update. I had to UNINSTALL Combined Arms module and then run REPAIR. No threats found in DCS World OpenBeta DCS Saved Games folders after scan.

It's a personal choice of which one you trust. I've switched from NORTON to ESET since 1997 and i've never had any problem. It's up to you, but i would be more careful to turn off my internet protection without having an official assurance that it is indeed a false alert.

Yes i did repair at first. Once ESET reads the file is quarantine it. Also i did a scan to DCS Open Beta folder, the same. Something is wrong with this file. I've send it for analysis to ESET. I got the same. In defalut and MT versions. It's a file matter, no DCS executables. I've send it for analysis to ESET. It is just a file matter,no need to reinstall the whole DCS.

So other than my antivirus find something weird. Thank you for the info. I have uninstall CA and i will upload the quarantine fie to ESET for further analysis. I propose to anyone that have problem to do the same as DCS haven't fix it till now.

The Gazelle incident was recognized & blocked as Trojan and i had to uninstall it so to avoid the trouble till was fixed. In this one, seems that developers have/creating safety problems. It's out of question to put any kind of such exemption to my firewall. I don't trust windows firewall.
