0 goretsky Supervisor Posted January 11, 2014 Supervisor Share Posted January 11, 2014 Hello, Also detected by ESET as MSIL/PSW.Agent.NGB trojan. Probably best not to trust the file until you ask your anti-malware vendor's support team if this is a false positive alarm or not. You can also download the CamStudio software direct from http://sourceforge.net/projects/camstudio/.%C2'> That doesn't seem to be detected by any anti-malware software.

I was actually trying to download it direct from their website. I thought camstudio.org was their official site. Also the other software did not come with codecs either. I guess I will need xvid. Thanks. goretsky 1 Share Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 hyde+ Posted January 12, 2014 Author Share Posted January 12, 2014 After a bit of research (I currently have an older version of camstudio installed) I found out that more recent versions of the application comes with adware which makes AV classify the software as Malware.

0 primexx Posted January 12, 2014 Share Posted January 12, 2014 KIS detects as Trojan-PSW.MSIL.Agent.ulp A lot of things come with adware but they don't trigger virus alerts before you even download them.

Question
hyde+
All I wanted to do is run a screen capture without it being compressed into a blocky mess (default setting in camstudio does this).
I read that I would need lossless codec, which I went here to get: http://camstudio.org/ with a link from sourceforge.
Any suggestions?
