Anton Olsson Threat secured! It says... SMB:CVE-2017-0144 [Expl]
Hi, I get this message constantly popping up when I have my computer running. I have Windows 7 x64 enterprise all up to date. I have done virus scan both with AVG and other software's and it's all saying everything is okay. What is is message? Should I reformat?
I'm sorry to hear about this. Please share a screenshot of the AVG Detection to assist you further and also let us know if you're using any third party security/protection program on your computer (like Norton, Avast, McAfee etc). You can check the following link to see the instructions about taking the screenshot (http://support.avg.com/SupportArticleView?urlname=How-to-create-a-screenshot). You can post the screenshot here in your topic. Click on 'Answer' & then click on the 'Image' [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions.
Best regards,
Alok.
its pop up like this . any solution?
I apologize for the inconvenience. Do you receive this popup when you scan your PC with AVG? or When you working on the computer. Also, let me know if this file [SMB CVE 2017] is a legitimate file to assist further.
And the notice is English in the main part, German in the details (I am german and my AVG is too). Sometimes there are up to seven equal windows poping up at the same time, sometimes only one.
But every time the IP is different!
Deep Scan shows no problems. Please find out what that is!
I understand the inconvenience.
I request you to update your AVG Internet Security program and check whether you get the same threat detection.
I have version 17.6.3029 and automatic update via standing order. Or is there something I don't understand regarding the updates?
Are you using AVG Antivirus business edition?
Are you getting this threat detection from AVG business edition product?
How can I disable it except for uninstalling AVG and replacing it by another similar product?
We can certainly take a look into this.
May I know the AVG program (AVG Antivirus Free/AVG Internet Security) you have installed on your computer?
Could you share a screenshot of the AVG Detection with "see details" page to proceed further?
You can post the screenshot here on your topic. Click on 'Answer' & then click on the 'Image' [mountain symbol] & follow the instructions.

Alok.
Do you get this threat detection while visiting a particular website or for any website that you browse?
Are you using free or paid version of AVG Antivirus?
This should be a false alarm. May I know the version of AVG Antivirus free installed on your PC?
To check that, open AVG Antivirus free interface.
Click on "Menu-->About".
My AVG version is 18.5.3059
virus def version : 180725-4
Could you try accessing the websites from another browser and check whether you are getting the same threat detection?
Same screen as shown above - pops up 8 to 10 times before stopping for a few hours and then pops up again. System is on latest version of AVG Business with definitions updated automatically (5 hours ago).
Have four other computers that are identical - they do not have problem.
Michael, General topic info.. "Business products" support.. For assistance have a look @ this AVG webpage (https://support.avg.com/business_contact_form?l=en_US).

Furthermore the "Business products" area has now been removed from the 'Community topics' list @ the top LHS of this page.
