March 17, 20242 yr 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.
March 18, 20242 yr Welcome to Kaspersky Community. Please, can You provide version of operating system and Kaspersky product installed?
March 18, 20242 yr Author Of course Is that importants datas? Like ip adress? Should i mask my ip adress?
March 18, 20242 yr You should mask IP address only if it comes from a local system of Your local network.
March 18, 20242 yr So, the IP address comes from a local network system? Something like 192.168.x.x... ?
March 18, 20242 yr Author 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?
March 18, 20242 yr 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: https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wireless_network_watcher.html
March 18, 20242 yr 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... https://support.kaspersky.com/help/Kaspersky/Win21.16/en-US/68162.htm
March 18, 20242 yr 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... https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/wireless_network_watcher.html
March 18, 20242 yr Author 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?
March 18, 20242 yr If in all this time Your KIS haven't detected any additional virus, probably Your system is clean.
March 18, 20242 yr Author 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
