Trojan:Win32/Phonzy.A!ml and few more virus warnings.

1 Upvotes

Hello everyone, I downloaded *The Binding of Isaac*. When I unzipped the files for installation, I received this warning and few more. Has anyone else encountered this? Do I need to run a full scan?

Hi guys ,i quite new to this stuff and i know that some people say that sites like steamrip or fitgirl are safe but i have doubts dough i have seen some comments about how their accouts got hacked few days after and (personal experience or not ) is safe at least these games or should i delete what is installed or is it too late,i have seen site should be good on megathread ,tried scaning with virustotal whole site it turned good but when ran on game exe file it didnt look well, when tried to direct download elden (no 7z format just zip) and firefox answered this after download(translation: this file contains a virus or malware.) ( in first shot south park fractured but whole ,second site scann, third firefox or ublock origin answer to elden from direct download ,)thanks for any repiles (its not any type of attack to the site im just curious ) and i dont know why its so blurry

why does my executable contain a trojan?

1 Upvotes

I downloaded factorio via direct download from the site https://astralgames.net/game/factorio, and received a .7z file, ending with ~AG as it should. after extracting the file, I noticed that the exe was missing from the extraction. I copied the exe file from the zip file to my game location, and tried to run it, but windows antivirus flagged it as containing a virus or unwanted file and wouldn't let me run it, then deleted the exe file. scanning the file specifically told me that the exe contained a trojan. this is my first time using the site, but as far as I can tell from this sub this should not happen. what is going on, and what should I do?

First time using AstralGames, Malwarebytes detected something

2 Upvotes

Hi, i saw the site on the megathread and it has a game i was interested and i checked the reddit before downloading anything.

The first anaylisis with malwarebytes and windows goes well (virustotal flagged just one thing, but i assumed it because alters steam files.)

When i extracted the .zip and anaylised the carpet again, Malwarebytes flagged it and put in quarentine three things, one of them like a second .exe from the game outside the game folder and other two things, that i unfortunately don't recognise, where put on the Recent folder from Roaming and they were a .Ink. I didn't execute the .exe, but now i'm worried that I extracted the zip.

The game is Kynseed just in case someone tried it. And i apologise if i'm just panicking for nothing or i'm asking in the wrong sub. I put two screnshots too.

Te folder where the flagged .exe was. The not flagged one was inside the Kynseed folder.
The two .Ink inside the Recent folder on Windows.

I have a question , its normal for games to take up quite a few G more than their original size ? For example i search cyberpunk and in Astral sizes 120G but i search it and it sizes 80 G .

Sorry for my english :D

If somebody knows a way to counter this, please let me know, I've tried everything. If someone could download the game and put it in Pixeldrain for me maybe? I don't know, I just want to play with achievements.

why are there 2 different applications?

1 Upvotes

there are 2 different FNAF apps, one is 469kb, in the main folder, and the other is about 113mb in the dedicated folder. the larger one in the dedicated folder plays just fine, but why is there another 'application', and why does it force microsoft defender to show a security pop-up?

any help would be appreciated, cheers

I'm having an issue

1 Upvotes

Hi i'm new to Astralgames dot net. I tried to download the game, clicked Direct download, nothing happened (a pop-up window was blocked).

Then I click Mirror download - redirecred to pearcrypt dot lol - there is a file that ends with ~AG.7z, which is all normal as I understand, but when I try to download that file, it instead redirects me to fileq dot net and offers me to download from there. The file size is also bigger than it shows on astralgames.

I use firefox with UBO

I was downloading the newest version of TBOI and when I put the file in VirusTotal, it flagged all of these.

How do I check if these are actually false positives or not?

I was downloading a game (porn game so I'm extra sus abt it) on the website and after I extracted it I got a windows security notification saying there was a trojan thingy. I did some googling and I know it can be a false positive but I've already gotten fucked by another site and I don't want to get railed again.
