HelloI work for an educational institution that has recently been subject to a theft of a Windows laptop.Since the theft on the 21st of this month the device can still be 'seen' as active in 365 Defender, shown in the highlighted section below. I'd like to know how Defender is still acquiring this information to see if can be used to trace the device (as unlikely as it is) or whether its just a false positive. I can see no evidence in our network logs to suggest it is based locally.Kind regardsMark Continue reading...

so this has been going on for three months or so. called my isp yesterday, they were worthless. I've sought advice around town and have avoided submitting anything online simply because i feel its unlikely to help my situation. i have about 3-4 pcs I've attempted to try and use as test dummies. my primary pc was the first to become effected. this isn't detected by the traditional scans. ie: defender, Malwarebytes, hitman pro, combofix, ect. ive ran tronscript, reinstalled windows like 100 times probably (no exaggeration.) im simply prepared to throw all my **** away and start from scratch. i Continue reading...

Hi, my Windows Defender detector blocked and removed a Trojan download from my Temp files today. I ran several full scans and followed instructions on deleting Temp files. I found an article by “howtofixguide” on the trojandownloadero97m-encdoc-femtb and decided to search for the virus on my PC in my file explorer by searching 5E967C56B6ECA10A1DDCE26896607E8F.mlw in the search engine. This was listed as the virus name on the website. When I pressed enter it opened up a link to a Bing Search about PCs as well as a popup in my file explorer asking me to enter a username and password. Continue reading...

Testing out Microsoft Defender for Mac for my organization. I installed version 101.78.13 on my M1 MacBook Pro 2020 running macOS 11.7 Big Sur. The app was running fine, but when it auto-updated to version 101.82.21, the app no longer runs. When trying to run it, I get the message "We're having trouble starting this app, Please hold on for a moment..." After about a minute the message changes to "There's a problem with this app". I can uninstall the new version and reinstall the old one, but it always auto-updates to the new version that doesn't work. Is the new version not compatible wi Continue reading...
