Bonjour,

Le répertoire protected créé par une de mes applications est systématiquement mis en quarantaine. Est-ce normal ?
Ci-après un extrait du log:

Je confirme :
La suppression du dossier "C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\***.default\Extensions\{3b56bcc7-54e5-44a2-9b44-66c3ef58c13e}" enlève le module de Firefox HTML Validator et la supression du dossier "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Google\Chrome\User Data\Default\Extensions\icpgjfneehieebagbmdbhnlpiopdcmna" "casse" sans enlever le module de Chrome New Tab Redirect.
Ça se corrige facilement, mais ce n'est pas très propre pour ce petit utilitaire sympathique.

As far as I can see from log,it looks like scanning is stuck at Pale Moon.
IE11 and Firefox 36 are scanned.Everything was fine 7 days ago.Maybe something is wrong with
database.

Super utilitaire, Xplode tu es un dieu ^^
Un petit faux positif ...à mon humble avis le dossier C:\Users\moi\AppData\Local\CrashRpt
Ce dossier, dans mon cas, contient juste un dossier de rapport du jeu Red orchestra2.

False positives (it's a legitimate VPN extension):
C:\Users\User\AppData\Local\Hola
HKLM\SOFTWARE\Google\Chrome\Extensions\ncffjdbbodifgldkcbhmiiljfcbgjag

If I remember correctly there's also a false positive for the Hola Unblocker Firefox add-on. However, the Firefox add-on stopped working for me - possibly due to AdwCleaner cleaning away files needed for it to work - and re-installing it doesn't help, so I can't submit a report for that add-on. The add-on can be installed from here if anyone wants to have a look at it: http://hola.org/

The following entries are false positives:

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Application Data\Simple Adblock (adblocker now known as Adblock Plus knowingly installed by user for Internet Explorer)

C:\Documents and Settings\User\Local Settings\Application Data\Hola (knowingly installed by user)

HKCU\Software\ProgSense (included with some software to look for updates - nothing malicious or deceiving)

HKLM\SOFTWARE\Classes\CLSID\{459DD0F7-0D55-D3DC-67BC-E6BE37E9D762} (belongs to ZoomBrowser EX, a Canon camera utility)

The following are proxy settings knowingly added by user:

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyEnable] - 1

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyOverride] - *.local

HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings [ProxyServer] - socks=localhost:1234

Thanks in advance for correcting the issue.

@cocochepeau

Here are most of the entries I could find. I believe the Hotspot Shield drivers might be the culprit. One user had a driver inside Device Manager. Replacing that driver with one from another working computer seems to have corrected the connection issue.
