What to do now4 steps

This is a hacking tool. It is risky to keep and run, but finding it is not by itself a sign that the device is infected.

What to do

  1. Don't run it unless you got it on purpose for security testing on systems you own. Delete it, then empty the Recycle Bin.

  2. If you didn't put it on the device yourself, delete it and run a full antivirus scan: something else may have brought it.

  3. Tools like this often come with cracked or pirated software. If it came that way, treat the whole download as unsafe and scan everything it installed.

If you already ran it

  1. Stop using it, run a full scan with your antivirus and watch for unexpected behavior or security alerts.

If you opened or installed it

Avoid banking and sign-ins on that device until it is clean. These free MalwareTips guides walk you through it.

The reasoning behind this verdict

Analyst conclusion

45 of the 71 antivirus engines that checked it detect this file, including 8 major antivirus engines that converge on the 'patcher' family. The sample is unsigned, matches an import-table fingerprint previously tied to malicious patchers, and carries the explicit filename hint 'parche'.

Where this verdict could be wrong1 caveat
  • One community comment claims 2 months of use without issues (#maybegoodware) — anecdotal and outweighed by 45-engine consensus.

These are the assessment's weak points. If you believe one applies to your file, report the verdict and we'll re-review it.

Threat context

How hacking tools are used

Hacking tools are programs that can switch off security software, test passwords or attack other computers. Security professionals use them on purpose; criminals also bundle them with malware.

Bottom line:Keep it only if you installed it on purpose, and check how it got onto the device if you didn't.
