[inxvisible]

I didnt use throttlestop for a long time and out of sudden a floxif got detected by malwarebytes in ts 951 version idk if its a false. I dont even have ccleaner and everything i download i scan on virustotal and make sure its not a infected file.

Update to ThrottleStop 9.6

Many of the beta versions are not signed so some virus programs throw a fit.

I have updated ts im curious tho why did it detect it as a floxif while i didnt download any malicious files, i didnt even launch the beta version, regedit seems fine nothing set to values as the floxif would be there. Maybe because ive updated win not long ago

why did it detect it as a floxif

I already told you why. The ThrottleStop beta version you were using was not digitally signed. Malwarebytes and some other antivirus programs assume that if a ThrottleStop version is not signed that it probably contains a virus. That is the wrong assumption to make. A version of ThrottleStop with an actual virus has never been released either as a beta release or a final release.

I just ran Virus Total on ThrottleStop 9.6. There were no complaints by any of the nanny software. Even Malwarebytes is happy with the latest official release.
