Hi shadowwar. Thank you for your reply. Sorry I couldnt help. Next time I'll save any reports. punkoid

Hi sorry I didnt save it just screen grabs.

Thanks for the reply. Yes I know I dont get realtime protection from my version of MBAM. I would send the files to be analysed but to be honest now they are quarantined IO wouldnt know how to send them? I last week I did upload them to VirusTotal. I didnt really understand the results. I did one file and then the other 2 and virusTotal said I had already scaned the file So apart from different names does that mean same file?

Last week I downloaded the free Malwarebytes to run along side my McAffee because I found these 3 files in my personal folder... They were all created a week ago within 3 mins of each other. I have Windows 7 Ive did scan them with McAfee and the results seemed OK. Tryed to open them and this? I then rescanned them once I got Malwarebytes installed on my PC and results of a quick scan were I then put the files in my recycle bin. I have scanned my pc with both Malwarebytes and McAfee regularly since (both Updated obviously before use) and nothing has been detected both quick scans and full scans. Today the pc was doing its scheduled Mcafee scan and I noticed this, mcafee has just moved the files (Which I had put in the recycle bin) into quarantined ! Yet I had done scans with both McAfee and Malwarebytes at lest once a day!

Thanks daledoc1 appreciated

Hi daledoc1 and AdvancedSetup. thanks for the warm welcome and your replies. Everything does seem to be working fine. I run Windows 7 and McAfee Total Protection (That uses McAfee firewall. Windows firewall is disabled) , The version of Malwarebytes is the Free Version so no realtime protection from that. Even though Ive had a PC since 1989 Im still pretty green around the machine. If I need to disable anything could you please be as kind to guide me through it. Appreciate the help punkoid

Hi I installed Malwarebytes on my PC and all seems to be working OK. I already have McAfee on the PC, when I was downloading Malwarebytes I got the instruction to turn off my firewall. I thought I had done it but I realised I had only turned off Mcafee realtime scanning and left the McAfee firewall on. Will this compromise the Malwarebytes from working properly? Also when scanning with Malwarebytes should I disable any McAfee programme thats running (Firewall, realtime scanning etc) ? Thanks
