I don't know if these are false positives or not. Please help. I can upload these files if neccessary.

I wanted to scan device F: (USB stick) and it finds a backdoor.bot in C:\_. Please explain/help.

Thank you,
Saso

Could you upload a copy of the files to the following so the analysts can take a look please?

Upload in progress (miskox.zip).

I did some tests:

1. I created a folder "_" (empty folder) without quotation marks and MBA detected it as backdoor.bot
2. I created a folder _X_ (empty folder9 and it was OK (MBAM found nothing)
3. I created a folder _X_ and copied files in it and it was OK (MBAM found nothing)

I will recheck steps above again on monday + another test (scan of C: only) - I can't rememeber the resulsts.

Thanks for letting me know.

Update:

I did some tests (again). Here are the results. I performed a full scan of C: :

1. I left a "_" folder with all these files there - MBAM found backdoor.bot
2. I also copied folder "_" to "_X_": MBAM found backdoor.bot in "_" and NOT in "_X_"
3. I renamed "_" to "_X_" found NOTHING.

Hope this helps.
