This is an alternate account since I was having trouble receiving emails with outlook

 

 

Last night, for whatever reason, my AV (ESET Nod32) started freaking out and blocking every site I go to (Amazon, FB, etc) with the threat "JS/ScrInject.B Trojan". I did the deepest possible scan with ESET, Malwarwebytes, and SUPERAntiSpyware, found nothing except some tracking cookies. I also looked at guides on how to remove this known malware, but there was no unusual files, processes, or registry values. I had stayed up all night, so I then fell asleep. I just woke up, and all the problems seem to be gone, I can now visit every website just fine, and there are no warnings. What should I do? Could it have been some kind of false positive? I haven't rebooted my PC at all from the time this started, should I do that? While the scans were running, I unplugged my WiFi adapter.

ESET update to 13102 is causing false positives on a lot of sites, if this problem persists you can roll back to a previous version or just wait for an update

Seems like a problem with the latest update many people have it check here for some reason I am not getting the error but knowing eset they should have a fix relatively soon. 

Thank you, that is a weight off my shoulders.
