I have to admit that I was wrong about the trojan but I put it to analyze the behaviors and a spyware was found

Those are called false positives, note how even though some of the files are years old they still only have 1 to 3 out of 71, if they really had trojans then at least half of the AV apps would flag IdleMaster, but they don't.

It is very common for smaller apps to have false positives.
🗲ZETA🗲 Dec 28, 2022 @ 4:57pm 
it's true it's not a trojan it's a spyware
MrL0G1C Dec 29, 2022 @ 12:26am 
:steamfacepalm: Perhaps you should learn about what you are linking before claiming it is evidence of anything, an actual spyware program would no doubt score more than 1/10 on the spyware scale. Simply getting a page to scan an app and then linking to the result does not make Idlemaster spyware.

Test those pages against 10 other small apps and see what happens, the results will be similar.

IdleMaster has been out for years and has been used by tens of thousands+ people, now do you not think that some of those tens of thousand of people have anti-virus and anti-spyware tools? If IdleMaster really was malicious then Steam would of banned it years ago.

You can literally go and download the source code for Idle Master and look through it.

You can use a free tool like sysinternals procmon (on MS site) to watch what is happening on your system but you'd also have to understand the output and not jump to conclusions.

Learn about what you're doing before throwing around accusations.

It is one of the best antivirus and it also confirms that what you are saying is true???

IdleMaster really was malicious, Steam would have banned it years ago.

idel master is not associated with steam in the first place and they cannot try something that is not theirs it is like me coming to this group if being the owner and telling you to delete it does not make sense You are a moderator and you don't know that? idolmaster was never associated with steam, what's more, there are people who obtained vacs, that's why steam always made it clear that they never recommended the use of idlemaster
Learn about what you're doing before throwing around accusations. triage It is one of the most reliable pages to do source code scans in case you didn't know the tlauncher spyware was discovered with that application I leave you the video of a Spaniard so you can see how it was discovered https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ILPBuU2H3bs&t=420s
min:6.54

He is a cybersecurity expert in whom I have to trust more than a person who graduated in cybersecurity or a guy who emphasizes that he does not have a virus

Is that how he recommended that application as one of the best and then you come along with some random guy to tell me not to trust him???

min:6.54

and next time, find out more about the application that you are going to moderate since you do not know that idelmaster is not associated with steam

How can I trust someone who tells me that they don't have a virus if they don't know that what they are moderating is not associated with Steam, it's something silly, yhea, but that makes your words a lot less relevant
MrL0G1C Dec 29, 2022 @ 12:00pm 
You are clueless, 1st you say 2 out of 71 AV engines calling something a virus/trojan means it is when in fact it means it isn't IE 69 out of 71 AV engines said that IdleMaster is not a virus or trojan, how do you explain that?

And then you go and make the exact same mistake again telling me that a 1 out of ten score means something is spyware when that pretty much means it is not spyware. You do not know how to read the results that these sites are giving you. I do.
MrL0G1C Dec 29, 2022 @ 12:02pm 
That video you linked, tell me what does the software he tests score on the spyware meter? 09:20 into the video. That's not idle master of course, IdleMaster gets 1/10 IE, a clean bill of health
MrL0G1C Dec 29, 2022 @ 12:12pm 
In the video at 09:52 you can see the malicious software he tested has some items with red lines next to them (more dangerous) and some items with yellow lines next to them (risky) and some less important items with grey lines next to them (least risky). Now look at Idle master and note that it only has a couple of things with grey lines next to it 'suspicious'. These things build up a picture, if there's a lot of red-line stuff then it is probably spyware, if it's just a couple of grey line things then it probably is not spyware.

OK?
MrL0G1C Dec 29, 2022 @ 12:14pm 
Or to put it another way, MS Office installer probably scores 3+ out of 10 on that site.

>IdleMaster really was malicious, Steam would have banned it years ago.

How would Steam "Ban" it? I don't think that Steam condones IdleMaster as it is. They just haven't done anything about it up until now.

Do you really think this group would still be here if Idle Master was a virus/trojan/spyware?

Zeta has done nothing but prove that it isn't virus/trojan/spyware by linking to evidence that shows it isn't those things. Go see for yourself.
