I have had MalwareBytes installed for several years, just installed MediaCenter later in December and am loving it. JRiver 25 and 26 installed just fine and work very well, even the remote panel, web panel and player features. Just recently upgraded to 26, latest scan revealed gogo.exe as a potential malicious gateway. See explanation from
https://blog.malwarebytes.com/detections/malware-heuristic-webthreat/ and the log from my computer below. Since a MP3 encoder is only used while saving music it seems that a different one could be used. Please advise.
Thanks in advance for any help,
Bill
