Last night, my antivirus (Windows Defender) detected the following threat: Frethog.

Elements:
file:C:\Program Files (x86)\Overwolf\0.85.190.0\OverWolf.Client.BL.dll

PWS:Win32/Frethog is a large family of password-stealing trojans that target confidential data, such as account information, from Massive Multiplayer Online Games.

Of course, I remove the Overwolf program and It’s funny because in fact, I have no application installed.

Hmm, i’m almost pretty sure it’s either a false alarm or another program altered this file in a malicious way, since Overwolf is pretty common and a brilliant platform for scammers. Have you tried reinstalling the latest version of OW? Also, don’t ever download software from any other websites than the manufacturers to avoid problems like this one.
