Malwarebytes flagging XYplorer.exe as malware!

Post by michaelbeijer »

Malwarebytes just flagged C:\Program Files (x86)\XYplorer\XYplorer.exe as containing ‘Trojan.Malpack.VB.Generic’. I assume this is a false positive? Anyone else getting this?

Man, I'm flooded with emails from confused users. This is really becoming disastrous, especially their slowness in handling their own mistakes. :evil:
