    Cisco Firesight IDS signatures identified as Malware when scanned by Windows Defender


    My organizations policy is to virus scan files prior to placing them into our labs. Cisco Firesight IDS signatures are being identified/quarantined by windows defender as malware when scanned. Emails with Cisco support indicates that the issue is a false positive. We are looking for confirmation from the Microsoft Windows Defender support team to verify this.

    Windows Defender has identified a severe malware program on my computer, but can't remove it.

    Computer using Windows 10. Malware identified by windows defender: "Trojan:Win32/dynamer!ac"

    Container File D:\preload\install.Wim

    File D:\preload\install.Wim->(image 12803)\program files (x86)\HPGames\FATE the Cursed King\Fate-WT.exe(EXEEmb)->(EXEEmb)

    File: D:\preload\install.Wim->(image24793)\SWSetup\HPGames

    There are several more lines of program installation for this malware, but I think the above should be enough to identify the malware on my computer. I have run Windows Defender Quick Scan, Full Scan and Offline Scan and Windows Defender has identified the
    malware shown above, but hasn't been able to remove it.

    I have downloaded and run Malwarebytes Anti-Malware free trial edition and HitmanPro free trial edition and neither program identified any malware on my system.

    Suggestions?

    Windows Defender Fails Malware Test

    Microsoft’s very own antivirus software, Windows Live OneCare, was recently found to be failing Vista users, and now the same has been discovered for its free anti-spyware application. In tests carried out by Australian company Enex Testlab, Windows Defender struggled to detect just half of the malware which it was tested with, with the quick scan finding missing most of the malware and the full scan finding only 53.3%. It would be best to note that the test was financed by competing company PC Tools, which claims the test was unbiased, although the winning software (detecting 88.7% of malware) was PC Tools’ very own Spyware Doctor. Windows Defender was released as a final version in October 2006, so it is relatively new and of course (being free) costs less than Spyware Doctor.
