Thanks for the logs. Can you reproduce this issue consistently? Does disabling Web Protection temporarily, alleviate the issue? I'm about to sign out for the night, but we'll keep an eye on this topic.

@John L. Galt - I split your posts to their own topic. More information may be requested, but for now, can you please collect and upload as an attachment the diagnostic data using our MBST? Download and run the Malwarebytes Support Tool Accept the EULA and click Advanced tab on the left (not Start Repair) Click the Gather Logs button, and once it completes, attach the zip file it creates on your desktop to your next reply

Thanks for letting us know. For now, please leave settings at default. If the issue occurs again with default settings, please do report back.

Thanks. Please toggle off the 'Block penetration testing attacks' setting. Then right click on the Malwarebyes tray icon, and select Quit. Wait a minute or so, then relaunch Malwarebytes. Does that alleviate the issue?

Hi @DarthVitrial - can you capture a screenshot of your Advanced Exploit Protection settings? Particularly the Application behavior protection tab. Settings > Security > Exploit Protection > Advanced Settings

Yes, this was a false positive, which has been addressed in versions of Malwarebytes Premium newer than the version in your reports. Please do upgrade. Following the instructions of @Porthos will help you get there. When the Ransomware Protection places a block on a process, it prevents that process from running again in that same session. In the case of a certain False Positive, all that needs to be done is to temporarily disable the Ransomware Protection. This will release the hold on the process. We are considering how to better message this activity in a future release, da

Hi @siliconman01 - indeed, it's posted here Direct link https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/mbst You can also initiate a download from the Help tab in the Malwarebytes application

You're quite welcome, dontduel. To specifically address your concern about whether that was a real threat or not, it was a False Positive. You can see the results of the detected file in the report you posted: "objectMD5" : "7b23b0aab68e65b93bb6477f05999574", "objectPath" : "E:\\Minecraft\\runtime\\jre-x64\\bin\\javaw.exe", here at VirusTotal https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/32546ecf1236769d2d777331f90282fb97589bec75da11c8e727d61d3d4c988a/detection

Hello. My suggestion would be to upgrade your Malwarebytes to the latest available version.

I'm happy to have helped @martij7au!

My pleasure @Porthos

@martij7au - you should have a reply waiting for you now.

Thanks @Phlarx and all - we have enough data for review by our developers at this point. We appreciate you letting us know you're experiencing the same issue. I also want to acknowledge that an exclusion is a workaround, not a solution. We don't currently have a time frame for a resolution to the issue but it is under investigation.
