PureBasic Trojan detected by Windows Defender

[kernadec]

hello
@Vernostonos, No problem to choose a firewall, sandboxing the goal is the same
simply refuse the IDE connection...
by any means

@BarryG, I ask for an explanation as to why PureBasic can read the code in the source directory.
and that he's forced to copy it to the "windows/time" directory.
to compile it. It's not normal that he has to have a copy for that... so this copy seems useless to me?????

during compilation PureBasic creates several files and directories in this directories "windows/temps" during compilation these ones
are immediately deleted after compilation
but not "PB_EditorOutput.pb."
why does Fred want to leave us a copy in this windows/temps directory??????
why doesn't he create "file.bak" in our source directory, there's room...

try to disable the search for updates? the IDE will still try to connect.

if you disconnect the rj45 cable or disable the wifi connection before running a purebasic code
you'll find that PureBasic no longer poses any false positive problems.

in the previous versions, there was no search for updates and the problem was already present.

there is a lack of transparency!!
I would like to be able to choose the directory of this copy as for the compiled program...

choose in the IDE not to look for a connection at each compilation as well.

PureBasic is not PHP so there is no Apache or other server to compile, so it has nothing to go on the internet.

Sincerely

why does Fred [...]

Fred is not the author of the IDE.

You can, for any months modify what you want, normally, because the IDE is open source.

There is even a dedicated section : viewforum.php?f=18

For some reason I started getting this today when I execute a certain piece of code from the IDE (it's fine if I compile an exec and then run it though).

I was running the same code fine yesterday and haven't updated PB today so I don't know if defender has updated or something.

The code I was writing just reads files, modifies a lot of data and then writes new files. it doesn't really use any internet connecting libs or anything.

Odd, so I thought I'd share.

Not odd,
It is a sign of the quality of the virus scanners and their false reports.
