Alert A-squared [SOLVED]

[blacksea]

Hi,

 

I reinstalled ASC because of the update. I know the update doesn't do much so i reinstalled it. But when I reinstalled it, A-squared came up with a Alert. This is what is says.

 

-

 

ALERT!

 

An attempt to connect to a hazardous site is detected!

 

File Name: C: \ Program Files \ IObit \ ADVANCED SYSTEMCARE3 \ AWC.EXE

Host Name: S7.ADDTHIS.COM

 

This site belongs to one of the many websites that try to obtain your passwords and other sensitive information by using a copy of the original Web site. You think to be at the original site which is reliable but in fact you are ended up on a copy of that website and all you write down there, will be passed directly to the "bandits."

 

It was hard to translate it from dutch to english, so my translation can have a mistake.

 

But what does this mean, what has S7.ADDTHIS.COM to do with ASC ?

This confused me.

Hi blacksea,

 

Can you try the new Setup file for ASC 3.4, of which the AWC.exe is 3.4.0.677 and see if it is the same.

 

A clean uninstall as described in Usage of IObit Products thread is advisable.

 

Cheers.

Hi blacksea,

 

I think a-squared had either deleted, or quarantined it.

 

You can try to install on top.

 

We have seen that before, and Tim Xue's advice was to install on top.

 

You have to wait a bit when it tries to install though.

 

Cheers.
