| I'm no expert, just a tinkerer who messed with models at home, so correct me if this is a false positive, but it doesn't look that way to me. Anyone else get this? showed up 3 times when i did a full search on my main drive. I was able to delete them with windows defender, but might do a clean install or go to linux after this and do my tinkering in VMs. It seems this virus messes with updates possibly, because I had to go into commandline and change some update folder names to get windows to search for updates. Dont get why people are downvoting me. i loved this app before this and still might use it in VMs, just wanted to give fair warning is all. gosh the internet has gotten so weird. [link] [comments] |

Key Points
- ユーザー投稿では、ローカルLLM実行アプリ「LM Studio」でマルウェアに感染している可能性があるとし、フル検索で検出が複数回見つかったと報告しています。
- Windows Defenderで検出ファイルを削除できたものの、更新処理に干渉している可能性があり、コマンドラインで更新関連フォルダ名の変更が必要だったと述べられています。
- 被害拡大が不安なため、クリーンインストールやLinuxへの移行、VM(仮想環境)での利用に切り替えたいという対応案が示されています。
- 投稿者は誤検知の可能性も否定できないと前置きしつつ、感染の「事前警告」としてコミュニティに注意喚起しています。
