[Very-Original]

Hello,

Not long ago, I started receiving messages saying that my IP address was being attacked, by a software called Scan.Generic.PortScan.TCP. What must I do? Is my computer in danger? Thanks in advance.

Welcome to Kaspersky Community.

 

Please, can You provide version of operating system and Kaspersky product installed?

[Very-Original]

Windows 11 and Kaspersky internet security

 

[harlan4096]

Can you post the full detection details?

[Very-Original]

Of course

Is that importants datas? Like ip adress? Should i mask my ip adress?

[harlan4096]

You should mask IP address only if it comes from a local system of Your local network.

So, the IP address comes from a local network system? Something like 192.168.x.x... ?

[Very-Original]

Yes, i dont know if it's coming from my computer or something like that.

To tell you the truth, a few months ago I accidentally downloaded a virus that I thought was a simple program. I ran it and nothing happened, later kaspersky told me that a file was dangerous, the launcher of the virus. I think I removed the launcher and not the virus, can you help me?

[harlan4096]

Then it is one of Your local system, check if some apps installed on it, it's the cause You are getting that detection.

 

As You don't have Kaspersky Plus with Smart Home Monitor module installed, you can download this free tool to check the devices connected to Your network:

I dont understand

[harlan4096]

I don't think that detection comes from your own system, usually that detection comes from a different system that is running a port scanning:

 

 

It could be a P2P app, or something else in this case in Your local network...

I already have AVG

How can i go to network attack blocker sttings?

[harlan4096]

What? Do You mean You have AVG in the same system or?

[Very-Original]

Yes, i have VAG  and kaspersky

Where can i download your wifi scan?

[harlan4096]

Having 2 antivirus solutions in the same system is not recommended at all!!!!! 🤦‍♂️You should uninstall one op them...  also can lead to system issues, incompatibilities, and system slowdown...

OH! Ok What should i keep?

[harlan4096]

It's Your decision, if You have KIS paid and AVG Free, I will keep KIS...

[Very-Original]

Ok nice, and what about that?T o tell you the truth, a few months ago I accidentally downloaded a virus that I thought was a simple program. I ran it and nothing happened, later kaspersky told me that a file was dangerous, the launcher of the virus. I think I removed the launcher and not the virus, can you help me?

[harlan4096]

If in all this time Your KIS haven't detected any additional virus, probably Your system is clean.

[Very-Original]

I'm not sure because i have problems on my pc...

Like i have to restart my pc as soon as I put it to sleep because my wifi crashes

[harlan4096]

Uninstall one of the 2 antivirus...

[Very-Original]

[Very-Original]

[harlan4096]

Using P2P apps:? torrents, etc...
