Hello,
I just downloaded [21b] Microsoft Security Essentials > Tool(64bits) from the link given in the first post, when I tried to install it MBAM detected it as trojan
Hmm, looks like Microsoft makes their own trojans now. I would guesss that this is a false positive. Why don't you scan it with https://www.virustotal.com/
ah MBAM Quarantined it, I kinda freaked out so I deleted it from Q-list.
But thanks for the link, it will come in handy for sure :)
Microsoft did not write the 64bit tool that is linked to in the 21b.
The file that is downloaded is not digitally signed - so definitely not from MS.
VirusTotal had this scan from August 2013 as being the last date that the file had been scanned by them. Here is a current scan.
The 64bit tool is named MSE Removal Vista Win7 64.exe. It unpacks another tool which is named mssefullinstall-amd64fre-nl-nl-vista-win7.exe. As the name of that 2nd file implies, the interface is in Dutch. That file is from MS and it is the installer for MSE 1.0. The digital signature is dated 13 Sept 2009.
MSE is currently on version 4.
The wrapper (MSE Removal Vista Win7 64.exe) creates a batch file which in turn calls the MS installer with the /u switch. This does nothing more than the normal Windows uninstall process would do. The wrapper provides no additional cleanup that I could detect via Process Monitor.
The link for 21b 64bit is: http://tinyurl.com/mse-w7vista64-rt
(be wary of any link from any URL shortening service)
That link redirects to roytimmermans.be
I cannot find a main page for that website :-(
Hey whs just a reminder a lot of these links seem to be broken so you may have to update some of them
