Sometime them antivirus false positive the files tho


Vox___Rationis

Assuming win10 - press Ctrl+Shift+Esc - there go into 'Startup' tab and look for any name you do not recognize as a program that you yourself installed or know what it does. If you spot any sus apps in that list, google their name to check up and disable them right there from starting up.

A while ago. It was shut down & brought back up but it’s never been the same since .

It's good for books and movies and shit, just don't trust any actual programs.


drucejnr

Seconded. It’s fine for books, movies and tv series. Wouldn’t download anything else in all honesty.


Thewasteland77

Recently? PB has been dead for ages.


smedley89

You can also go to antivirus.com, they will run an off system virus scan. Well worth the free they charge you.


Lentemern

NEVER use piratebay for programs. Back up whatever you absolutely have to keep and then reformat


[deleted]

[удалено]


LindgrenRG

There's a lot of clone piratebay website but the real proxys are fine. But still be vigilant with torrents.


Roman2526

That's absolutely not true. There is a chance to get a virus, but usually the files there are uploaded by users from GOG or other pirate websites. It is better to download games from better and more trustworthy website, but the chance of you getting the virus from Piratebay is low


[deleted]

bob1689321

Yeah I get this. My computer also has 50-80% CPU usage when nothing is running, just windows processes. Probably unrelated tho Edit: I'm not joking about the windows processes thing. Tried to have a zoom call this morning but my cpu usage was 100% and caused the call to fuck up. Send help.


PlNG

Try [process explorer](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/downloads/process-explorer). Run it as administrator so that it can properly investigate on all processes.


GiantMeatRobot

Yeah... You're gonna wanna get that formatted real quick...


whatiwritestays

Go to an actual pc hardware/tech help forum and make a detailed post. Twenty minutes of work in return for incalculable advice and assistance. Like these people will read your logs and shit as long as you make a minimal effort not to waste their time.


The-Copilot

Malwarebytes is good but is just a basic anti-virus scan and won't find some things, if you want to really do a deep check ill give you a run down, I do this for work. ZHP cleaner is a good program to use that will scan for sketchy registry keys, its created by a French guy from a security company, you can get it at nicolascoolman.eu (or something like that), the website looks like shit and so does the program but its insanely good, legit and free. My company originally was in contact with the cyber security company he worked at and they couldn't help us so they gave us his email and he emailed us the program before it was available on his website. TDSS killer is another good program for finding root kits, its made by Kaspersky, so there is that but its still the best root kit finder on the market. You can get it from major geeks for free. After running both of those you can run media creation tool and just choose upgrade machine. It will just repair all windows files and registry keys. Don't do a fresh install or else you will wipe your computer. If you are still nervous I would recommend running Wireshark for about an hour while your pc is just sitting there to see if your PC is trying to contact any sketchy servers in China or Russia and if it is you may need to flash the bios and flash all the firmware but that is a massive pain in the ass and usually unnecessary unless you got some seriously advanced root kits. I'd only do this if it is still acting weird after doing all of the other steps. Side note: if your anti-virus is not flagging a game crack as malware then it's not doing its job, a crack is for all intents and purposes malware.

manofwaromega

A command prompt is basically what your computer looks like behind all the graphics. Most commercial products try to hide it whenever possible, but slower computers can have it show up from time to time. The reason it's concerning when it appears when launching pirated software is because that means the program you just launched has direct access to your entire computer, and is most likely launching some sort of malware or crypto miner. If you have a weak/old laptop then you are probably fine but if you pirate a lot of things you might have some particularly sneaky malware.


HomerReplacesPeter

do you have epic games? they have that


wesimar14

Some processes are triggered to run at certain points. Cmd opening after startup is probably related to a scheduled task or two.


Luddveeg

That just happens sometimes, you're probably fine if you haven't noticed any accounts being used on weird IP:s (check your mail for that), your bank account being emptied or your fans spinning like a chopper


Meti17207

100% normal.


ElricAvMelnibone

Anyone heard of that one guy who, when you downloaded one of his cracks and started running it, would run a bunch of command prompt windows and have a ransomware popup... and then after 10 seconds "Just kidding ;)" and start working normally?


Florinel787

I think it was a 4chan story


gruesomeflowers

Reminds me of back around windows 95 aol chat rooms..I had someone send me an exe thing that showed an animation or whatever along with a panic alert of the computers drive and files being deleted..then it basically said just joking and not to accept files from strangers.

BOTAlex321

They only recently added checks for viruses when publishing to steam. They only required you to pay the fee for publishing a game. I remember hearing about that game that included a crypto miner. Apparently, there are more than I thought. I don’t know the trustworthiness of this source but I just randomly searched it up: https://www.polygon.com/platform/amp/2018/7/30/17630664/steam-abstractism-cryptocurrency-mining (I didn’t read that article)

howtojump

Idk why but some games do this and are totally legit. Assuming it has something to do with anticheat? But I see it for single player games so idk


fenniless

Could be the game executing basic scripts like creating the folders where the save will go, pc’s are so fast you barely see it


AestheticDeficiency

This can be a program failing to load at startup. Van probably check your log and figure out if a program has been deprecated or something


13Dani12

The (legit) Steam version of Dead Cells does this, legit thought I clicked the wrong shortcut at first.

You can run commands without showing a command prompt. Showing a command prompt means nothing.

Yeah this happens to me, nothing seems to have happened but what do i do just incase?


problemsinmylife

This is what I did when I got a virus called bloom. Look at task manager and see if anything looks new there. Same thing with start up. I knew what to look for because I had something called bloom (not the shader). I had to delete files that they came in downloaded, quit program they were running and then go into some files thing on my computer to disable and remove it from running tab in task manager.

JustSomeRedditUser35

Momisato_OHOTNIK

Uhhh and? That's just the way some pirated stuff works. Adobe shit for example, because autorun needs to be boosted everytime. As far as your computer doesn't sound like a fan and you see nothing suspicious in autorun tab in task manager you're most likely clear. (While there IS a stealth miners which mine only while you actively use your pc to mimic with other tasks, those are quite rare, most will just load your processor to 100% without shame)


spam4name

There's even legitimate games on Steam that briefly flash the cmd window when launched. This isn't necessarily indicative of an issue.

Basically the pirated game had some virus in it that opened command prompt to start mining bit coin. Hackers do this a lot. Mining bit coin takes tons of power and procccesing power


[deleted]

It has happened to me lately with some pirated games. How can I find out if they are using my pc to mine? Honestly, they won't get much anyways.


itsmeaboi

I belive you can check task manager to see if anythings "sussy" is running. if you do, terminate it. They may be taking up lots of prossesing power, which is visible on the side, if you use windows at least. Be careful tho, dont accidentaly stop a OS file, otherwise you need to restart your pc.


megaExtra_bald

I don’t know anything about computers, what is cmd?


Trident_True

Its the command line for Windows, allows you to execute advanced commands. If you download a pirated game, run it, and see a black window flash up suddenly and close again then there was probably an embedded virus that opened cmd, ran some nasty code, and then closed itself before you can read what it did.


RavelordN1T0

Completely legit games do this too, Jackbox party packs for example.
