  1. For us chocolate lovers here, other than regular and flavored chocolate of course... Me, I like chocolate-covered raisins, peanuts, and I also found some chocolate-covered plum-bits at the store a while back and I tried them out. I bought a couple bags the other day when I went grocery shopping. I'm sure there's something else out there that I haven't found yet What do you like that is chocolate covered?
  2. Happy Happy Birthday! Enjoy it!
  3. Ah-hah, that makes sense, Firefox I had thought he meant the recommended download mirror or something for Flash Disinfector (I haven't actually gone to the link yet, though).
  4. YoKenny1, There's nothing after the recommended download you bolded; is there supposed to be?
  5. Quick scan has the option of your C drive only, as far as I know. Full scan gives you an option of whatever it finds plugged in I hope this helps!
  6. I second Exile's AV recommendations And I personally use KAV. My personal Mbam settings are: -Completely manual updates (1-4 times a day, depending on when I am using the computer) -Completely manual scans (except when I am testing, then I will turn on auto-update & scanning) Edit: I do run the realtime protection of course, if that wasn't clear. & Website/IP blocker is on. No IP exclusions.
  7. yes, but unfortunately, they aren't always going to be fully up to date... If you have a working computer that can get updates, you can just grab the rules.ref off of that machine after updating Mbam as outlined in Issue #4, in case you missed that
  8. crysty2k5, Please go here: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?s...ost&p=49525 See Issue #4
  9. Hi Tiffy, I saw your post last night but unfortunately I had to get off the computer otherwise I was going to reply at that time Please click here: http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?s...ost&p=49525 And see Issue #4. Make sure to update Mbam on the working computer prior to burning rules.ref if you are going that route. Then if problems still persist, please do follow gtyhfy's directions!
  10. I have a pause too sometimes, sometimes it has even lasted a minute, but normally not more than 20-30 seconds.
  11. Hello MrStorm, and welcome to the forums here at Malwarebytes.org Please read the following so that you may begin the cleaning process: We don't work on Malware removal in the general forums. Please read and follow the directions here, skipping any steps you are unable to complete. Then post a NEW topic here. One of the expert helpers there will give you one-on-one assistance when one becomes available. Please note that it may take 48 hours or more for you to receive a response in the malware removal forum, as it is often busy at times. Please do not reply to your own post asking for help unless its been more than 48 hours since you originally posted, as this can make it appear as though you are being helped and take longer for you to get help. If you are unable to do all or any of the steps in the link to the directions above, just post your problem into the forum I gave you a link to anyway and someone will be able to assist you. Also, when replying, please use the "ADD REPLY" button located at the bottom of the page, as this makes the forum easier to read.

  12. Hope I am not too late! Happy Happy Birthday
  13. Have a wonderful holiday!!!! Don't think about malware while you are away
  14. Hello Dem, What version of Windows are you using?
  15. Hello branon, and welcome to the forums here at Malwarebytes.org, and thank you for your interest in purchase One license is good for one computer. However, it is a life-time license for home users, so you do not need to renew it yearly like many security programs. However, if you do purchase two at once, there is a 10% discount: 2 @ $22.45 10 % I hope that answered your question and feel free to post if you have any more
  16. Cyber Defender is snake oil in my opinion, please read these links: ** http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?s...st&p=162424 ** http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?s...st&p=163137 Edit: More CyberDefender links, from our very own MysteryFCM's blog: http://hphosts.blogspot.com/2009/10/cyberd...e-go-again.html http://hphosts.blogspot.com/2009/04/cyberd...happy-news.html http://hphosts.blogspot.com/2009/03/cyberd...money-back.html http://hphosts.blogspot.com/2009/03/rogue-...-uses-mbam.html http://mysteryfcm.co.uk/?mode=Articles&date=17-04-2007 And to the OP; Mbam has saved my butt with the IP blocking feature several times The support is excellent, the lifetime home user license for the low-price of 24.95 is great, and it is more than worth it to have the paid protection. I don't understand why that site gave it that sort of a review, but I give it 5 stars and then some And I know I am not the only one
  17. And you know, I don't know what version of McAfee was on there, but one of the processes in the background, no scanning or anything, just running, was 110,000k in the Task Manager... :/ Seems much lighter on your moms machine.
  18. Well, it's a very old XP & has 504 MB of RAM, so, that isn't helping either Thanks for the pics, I'll check them out & glad you figured out the links! hehe. Time to update some Java on there too (screen shot you showed me)
  19. I still use prnt screen & paint I'll look into those links though, YoKenny1
  20. Buttons I think you are quite confused. Read the first post if you haven't already I just got RID of McAfee, it seems as though McAfee was dragging down system resources quite a bit, and when I checked it in Task Manager prior to uninstall it was quite high compared to some other AV's. It was the McAfee security center. I've replaced it with MSE for now
  21. Norton isn't that bad anymore There WAS no Norton though. McAfee was still on there, the ISP is switching from Norton to McAfee, but she hadn't made the switch yet. So I told her if she doesn't like MSE we can try the Norton
  22. hehe. It was either that or Avira I think but I think the pop up would really, really annoy her. So we'll see how this goes, and I hope she has faster computer reports for me!! She's been complaining that its slow. I also left a defrag running when I left & CCleaner-ed it too, since it hadn't been for a while, since the last time I was there. If she doesn't like it for whatever reason, I'll uninstall it and she can do the Norton.
