Malwarebytes label: BFD Eco Gen 16 Zildjian pack and X-Mas Freebie as "Rogue". Any ideas?

Gah. Google has become useless for searching stuff like this. Used to be you could plug in search terms for malware results and find info. Now it's just a bunch of garbledy gook sites and other unrelated crap. Lame.

Hi, jbow. That's what I'm thinking. Just curious to see if any of you guys who use Eco have gotten the same thing. I do find it odd that it didn't detect any of the other BFD exe and stuff on the system though. The X-Mas thing came straight from the FXpansion site through my account. I don't think I've even installed it. Perhaps it's good that I haven't.
 

Sorry for multiple posts but I figure some folks may be interested. After doing the CCleaner registry scan/fix and running the main cleaner and doing this Malwarebytes scan/fix I can open X2 with absolutely no lag or whitescreen. I'm assuming this has more to do with the CCleaner stuff (it got rid of a LOT of junk that I have no idea where it came from). I've always had to wait a few seconds while opening X2 and inevitably got another few seconds of whitescreen as well as lag when opening projects and sometimes a brief whitescreen. Just now I opened the same project I've been messing with for a while in X2 a) opened immediately without any glitchiness and b) the project just sprung to life and was ready to playback before I even had a chance to click Play.
 
Maybe freaking audiosnap will work better now too. Sweet.

I hear ya but CCleaner isn't really one of the nasty ones unless you set it up to be. I may have borked up something considering how much it yanked off the system but Sonar seems to be working fine and I have restore points and an image from not too long ago and CCleaner made restore points too before the doing the clean. I also want to totally wipe the system and start from scratch or use the original image I made right after I had built the system and configured windows but before I started installing my audio programs. I need to set my directories up properly and want to call Cakewalk to get some more definitive optimization tweaks as well as do the set up with all the knowledge I've acquired in the past year.
 
It will be much better methinks and perhaps solve some of the the little glitches I run into. At the very least the file structure won't be as ridiculous and it'll clear out any junk I know I don't want to deal with on the system.
 
Cheers.

The most important thing about running a registry cleaner is to always back up the registry before you do it, and I believe CCleaner gives you the option to do this. To be honest I don't think registry cleans make much of difference to your system. They don't "fix" corrupt or missing or erroneous registry entries, they just clear out stuff that's being unused. And in a registry that contains 100's of 1000's of keys, deleting a couple of hundred of them isn't going to yield any performance gains. Same thing with registry "defraggers" which get advertised a lot - the entire registry is loaded into memory at startup so defragging it will only, if anything, affect boot times. 
 
Having said that, none of this stops me from running the cleaner now and then during idle moments 

Beep it might not be the CC Reg CLeaner that's giving you a performance boost - it could well arise from it's general cleaning up routines on your files - like Temporary Internet Folders, Temp folders etc.

Beepster : To answer your questions :
 
 * No, and this using web downloads direct from the purchasing site(s)
 
 * Yes, happens also with most any anti-virus at one time or another
 
 * Yes, as long as you downloaded from a reputable source.
 
I only use the Registry part of Ccleaner, I set my web browser to erase temporary files after 3 days and limit the size of the cache to 250 MB. My personal preferences.
 
Once a month, I run Ccleaner alongside Malwarebytes and a quick scan of MSE. That catches 99.99% of things.
 
FYI, Ccleaner is the most downloaded software in France, according to OneNet. So I think its very safe to use, but then you'll always have sceptics.
 
So don't worry about the false positives long as you downloaded from a reputable source.
