I ran my usual scan for viruses & malware's today on my pc and MalwareByters detected a trojan from AAAFx mt4 platform.

I had the same trojan detected on the Octa Fx and FX open MT4
All other MT4 are not infected. I really hope this is a false poaitive. Wrote to the FX Open support. I don' t want to think that a broker want to steal our passwords

Probably it's trojan that searches for MT4 platforms and is trying to steal passwords from all accounts, but it doesn't come from broker, because if broker wants to steal money from you, really doesn't need your password

Found the same Trojan also on the office PC in the FX Open and Go markets Mt4 installation folder. In the office PC i do not have installed Octa FX MT4. So atm brokers involved are:
Octa FX
FX Open
Roboforex
Go markets
AAAFX

I do not think brokers want to steal our personal datas (if they want to cheat they have more "clean" ways to clean our accounts), but we have to write them and ask explanation. Why some Mt4 installations are affected and other not? i also think that for 3rd parties would not easy to infect Mt4 installation folders. Why then, as for me, Fx Open is infected on my 2 PCs while many other brokers Mt4 are not affected?
I still think is a false positive

Received a reply from FX Open which says that they do not collect personal data from any client.
I honestly believe this and do not think that a broker want to steal our personal password.
Probably is a false positive and i must say that Malware bytes recognize as trojans also dll files of expert advisors from reliable developers that i use from years
I would also exclude that some 3rd part infected my installation folders, because this would mean that i have downloaded and installed some shit on my PC
The only thing i do not understant is why Malware bytes recognizes as trojans some MT4 and not all of them

Use a 'clean' mt4 terminal. Download it from mql4.com and log in with your account. Then the problem is solved
