djlf 40 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Guys, Emby sever wouldnt load with windows defender detecting malware after install of latest stale release. Defender picked up Trojan:Win32/Fethar.B!cl , which it quarantined but server wouldnt start. After switching defender off, emby installed ok and ran ok. Turn defender on and same result as above. Is this a false positive? or something to worry about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8381 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Yes it would be a false positive, wonder why I haven't seen this on the three machines I have Server on, only running Defender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djlf 40 Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 ran malwarebytes and it found nothing. Strange ???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8381 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 ESET/NOD32 and Avast are causing browser issue also so something is going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37298 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 at what stage exactly did this happen? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djlf 40 Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Just after emby installed. i did a fresh install from website because my auto organise was playing up. When i clicked on app it wouldnt start. So installed again at the end of which defender kicked in saying it found malware which is the trojan. I restored it from quarantine and allowed it - now emby runs fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Happy2Play 8381 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 So this was a reinstall over an existing install or a new install, not that is should matter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djlf 40 Posted April 2, 2016 Author Share Posted April 2, 2016 Reinstall over existing install . Did it 3 times to be sure. Each time defender found malware Trojan as described Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Happy2Play 8381 Posted April 2, 2016 Share Posted April 2, 2016 Can you post the version of Defender also. Can't reproduce on my machine Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
THX.1138 0 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Installed Emby for the first time ever. Got a Defende popup about a trojan in mediabrowser.serverapplication.exe. See screenshot. Proces: Installed Emby completely. The screen to configure Emby opened in browser. I waited a couple of minutes and got a popup. Please advise.

steveBCN 1 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 I'm getting exactly the same issue. Latest automatic server update triggers Windows Defender which removes it citing the same trojan mentioned above. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Luke 37298 Posted April 3, 2016 Share Posted April 3, 2016 Since we can't reproduce, if you could do some testing of running the beta installer that would be very helpful. I've gone back to just embedding ffmpeg into the application rather than having it download on first run. I think it is the downloading of ffmpeg that is often triggering a false positive. Thanks.
