DAEMON tools was originally a successor of Generic SafeDisc emulator and incorporated all of its features.[10] The program claims to be able to defeat most copy protection schemes such as SafeDisc and SecuROM.[11] It is currently compatible with Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, Windows 8, and Windows 10. DAEMON Tools has a special mode for proper operation of copies of discs with advanced protection (SafeDisc, SecuRom and LaserLock, CDCOPS, StarForce and Protect CD), which are used on some discs with games.[12]
The default file format of DAEMON Tools is Media Data eXtended (MDX). MDX is a disc image file format similar to MDS/MDF images. It supports all of MDS/MDF format features except that all data is in one monolithic file only. The files of these types bear the filename extension of .mw-parser-output .monospacedfont-family:monospace,monospace.mdx.[21]
On 13 February 2012, one of DAEMON Tools components known as MountSpace became a subject of privacy concerns. MountSpace, a service-oriented component gathers and sends information about disc images used in DAEMON Tools to mountspace.com along with users' IP addresses. Although MountSpace can be disabled during installation, it is criticized for transmitting information despite being disabled and lacking a privacy policy.[22][23][24][25] The initial discovery of the concerning issue is attributed to Rafael Rivera of Within Windows blog.[22][24][25]
YASU (Yet Another SecuROM Utility) is a very small tool that works as a SCSI-drive protector. It was created by sYk0 and can be used to hide emulated drives from SecuROM 7 and SafeDisc 4. YASU is a companion program for Daemon Tools and currently being hosted, supported and maintained by the Daemon Tools team. On March 4 of 2009, sYk0 announced development of Omen which is to succeed development of YASU.[26] As of January 2010, development of Omen has been abandoned.[27]

the program that is supposedly infected is Daemontools which is a program that's been around since forever and it's been a long time but i'm sure i downloaded it from the official site, but maybe i got phished? i'm not a noob, so could be false positive? idk, but to be safe i wanted to delete the files anyway.
the other is in c:\documents and settings\me\dtlite.exe which is system folder and could only find by showing system files in windows explorer, but that directory is still inacessible. so how do i delete that one? and is it something i should be concerned with in the first place?
File infecting viruses, or file infectors, generally copy their code onto executable programs such as .COM and .EXE files. Most file infectors simply replicate and spread, but some inadvertently damage host programs. There are also file infectors that overwrite host files. Some file infectors carry payloads that range from the highly destructive, such as hard drive formatting, or the benign, such as the display of messages.
Please post a screenshot where ESET flagged the software as ransomware. I'd rather expect it to be detected as a potentially unwanted application. Moreover, the detection name comes from another AV maker as itman pointed out.
and in settings i have "cleaning level" set to "always ask the end user" because i don't want it automatically deleting stuff that is safe, like it's done to me in the past, but yeah it would be the normal pop-up telling me it's detected a potentially unwated program but in the dialog there's no option to clean or delete. i guess at that point i would have to do a manual scan to be able to have the option to clean or delete? (sorry i can't get screen shot, i already manually deleted file)
wow, that's crazy. i have, and i'm sure lots of other people, have been using that program for prob 20+ years. i wonder why all of a sudden they would turn a legit program into malware. seems strange. well thanks for the info.
oh i just re-read your reply it didn't actually get detected as ransomware, i believe it was unwanted application, it was when i looked up MSIL\AVBDiscsoft.a somewhere it said that that was used in ransomware attacks
I downloaded Daemon tools from the official site (the first one that comes up in google, its www.daemon-tools.cc/eng/downloads) and when I clicked the download link Norton said that the site I was downloading the exe from was a known malicious site (something like soft24.com). It was talking about the mirror that was actually serving the file.
Unfortunately anti-virus software is not the smartest piece of software out there, and is really an annoyance to most Super Users. Although anti-virus software is necessary for keeping your PC safe, the user must realize that all "threats" it detects may not really be a threat. Daemon tools is a safe piece of software and is used by many.
As someone who fell in love with daemontools thirteen years ago, I too try to supervise all the things. nginx is a bit feisty though, you have to use at least daemon off; in your config to run it in the foreground, and master_process off; if you really don't want it spawning any children. Just exec it then from your run program and it will behave like you expect.
The master process is essentially supervise. It's super lightweight and is solely responsible for making sure workers are running properly. I've never once had it crash on me, even in some fairly busy environments. So now I just let init stop/start it and worry about services I do need to supervise.
Supermarket belongs to the community. While Chef has the responsibility to keep it running and be stewards of its functionality, what it does and how it works is driven by the community. The chef/supermarket repository will continue to be where development of the Supermarket application takes place. Come be part of shaping the direction of Supermarket by opening issues and pull requests or by joining us on the Chef Mailing List.
Other cookbooks can be used with this cookbook but they are not explicitly required. The default settings in this cookbook do not require their use. The other cookbooks (on community.opsocde.com) are:
Use this recipe to run chef-client as a cron job rather than as a
service. The cron job runs after random delay that is between 0 and 90
seconds to ensure that the chef-clients don't attempt to connect to
the chef-server at the exact same time. You should set
node["chef_client"]["init_style"] = "none" when you use this mode but
it is not required.
Create a base role that will represent the base configuration for any system that includes managing aspects of the chef-client. Add recipes to the run list of the role, customize the attributes, and apply the role to nodes. For example, the following role (Ruby DSL) will set the init style to init, delete the validation certificate (as the client would already be authenticated) and set up the chef-client as a service using the init style.
The chef-client::config recipe is only required with init style init (default setting for the attribute on debian/redhat family platforms, because the init script doesn't include the pid_file option which is set in the config.
The default Chef Server will be :4000 which is the Chef::Config[:chef_server_url] default value. To use the config recipe with the Opscode Platform, for example, add the following to the override_attributes
The chef-client recipe will create the chef-client service configured with runit. The runit run script will be located in /etc/sv/chef-client/run. The output log will be in the runit service directory, /etc/sv/chef-client/log/main/current.
The chef-client recipe will create the chef-client service configured with bluepill. The bluepill "pill" will be located in /etc/bluepill/chef-client.pill. The output log will be to client.log file in the node["chef_client"]["log_dir"] location, /var/log/chef/client by default.
The chef-client recipe will create the chef-client service configured under daemontools. It uses the same sv run scripts as the runit recipe. The run script will be located in /etc/sv/chef-client/run. The output log will be in the daemontools service directory, /etc/sv/chef-client/log/main/current.
On Mac OS X and Mac OS X Server, the default service implementation is "launchd". Launchd support for the service resource is only supported from Chef 0.10.10 onwards.
An error message will be logged if you try to use the launchd service for chef-client on a Chef version that does not contain this launchd support.
Since launchd can run a service in interval mode, by default chef-client is not started in daemon mode like on Debian or Ubuntu. Keep this in mind when you look at your process list and check for a running chef process! If you wish to run chef-client in daemon mode, set attribute chef_client.launchd_mode to "daemon".
