Hi,

I was palying away there and after 3 hours pctools threatfire said that postgres.exe was key logging and requested to quarantine it. I did so as their had been multiple versions of it running ( I have since found out this is normal)

As soon as i quarantined it the database stopped updating (suprise suprise) So I unquarantined it as I am going deep in a tourny.

Is the keylogging a false positive ?

Im not sure tbh, its possible something has been put in there but obviously PostgreSQL wouldnt have put something there. Maybe try the PostgreSQL forums or to be on the safe side backup your database and uninstall HM and delete the whole PostgreSQL folder and reinstall it again and scan that folder and if it shows up again then you can rule out a program putting it there maliciously
