    Default SwiftKit is infected DONT USE.

    SwiftKit got hacked about 5 hours ago I don't know if anybody else made a thread about this already but do not RUN anykind of Java Driveby's from their program/website if you did scan your computer asap and uninstall swiftkit.

    Swiftkit is not infected. The website was hijacked. Unless you were on the swiftkit website and ran a java applet you are fine. I will be editing this and posting a tutorial on how to remove the infection if you did happen to get infected.

    And if you reboot your client you'll get an update, The update will lead you to a Java Drive-by

    Question: What's a Java Drive-by?
    Question: What does a Java Driveby do? A Java Driveby can be used to inject a RAT/Keylogger into your computer, soon as you click that Run, it's downloaded and probably watching your screen!

    This is a Java-Drive-by

    So how do you go about removing it?

    Step One - Go to Start and type Run.exe/Msconfig.exe
    As you can see here

    Then run Msconfig.exe

    Go to Start-up and remove all from start-up, it'll prompt you to restart, Don't do it yet!

    Then go to Services, and hide microsoft ones and remove the others you aren't sure about or don't trust. after doing this, Reboot your computer I hope this guide was simple and easy enough for you to use! Also, just to be super safe download MalwareBytes here

    The update sends people to the infected website where it would usually get the update from. The client is completely clean. Your antivirus detects this as a virus and block swiftkit from accessing the website.

    I wont be so sure I am not taking any chance/risks at all, I wont be using their program for like 3 days until I know its 100% safe to use again.

    Yep. That is the safest thing to do. http://swiftkit.net/ seems to be back to normal now with no JDB but I would still wait. Personally I have not used swiftkit in months and I do not plan to.
