I have noticed a small change on my end as well, it is probably due to the size of the database file that is being downloaded. As more Malware gets detected out in the wild, the larger the database gets for detecting the malware. How fast is your cable connection? You can test your connection at http://www.speedtest.net

Hello jay21317, and I am glad it worked for you, if you have any other issues or questions don't hesitate to ask. Files get corrupted from time to time, most likely your your database file for Malwarebytes may have gotten probably during an update of the database file.

If you are not getting any beeps what so ever with the ram in or out, then its the motherboard. With a working motherboard, if you turn it on with no ram in place the mother board should beep over and over again (3 beeps at a time) letting you know that there is no ram in the computer.

I for one am not sure why they did that, but if you type it with .com it will redirect you to the .org site....

Well if you are getting the green screen even in DOS (Bios screen) and in safe mode, then its more than likely that video card because both the Bios screen and the safe mode do not really use vidoe drives, it uses a generic driver built on to the card just to display in basic mode so you can see on the screen. But if you see green always then replace the video card....

You could try and just reinstall the program and see if it corrects your issue, if not then follow the instructions from noknojon above....

Glad you figured it out, if you feel that you may still be infected or you keep getting IP block notifications please follow the instructions provided by noknojon above.

@ aqtech Glad you got it working... should you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask.....

Your welcome, should you have any further questions don't hesitate to ask.

Hope that you grounded yourself before doing all this work. Anyway, make sure all cords are plugged in correctly. If you plugged something in backwards, you could have shorted out the main board. With all the memory out, power on the PC. Did you get any beeps?

Hello and I assume you are using the Pro version of Malwarebytes.... if so these seem to be blocked with the Malwarebytes Website blocking feature. I tried going to the first one and it was blocked. You can try reporting it in the False Positives section for review LOCATED HERE Or you can add these sites to the ignor list if you feel they are safe.

When you start you computer in Safe Mode, you are correct, a lot of services and programs do not get loaded, this includes some malware and viruses (but not all of them). Some malware will actually disable your safe mode as well. Now about Malwarebytes, since you are scanning in safe mode, and not all services are running, including your registry not being fully loaded, Malwarebytes will not detect ALL malware on your computer. When it finds it, it may remove it, but then when you reboot your computer, it may not boot up properly, or it will still be infected once you are back in normal mode.

Well in a simple answer Yes it will run in safe mode..... Although bear in mind that Malwarebytes was designed to be run in Normal mode so that it can detect and remove the malware more effectively. We do not recommend running it in safe mode unless you have been asked to do so by an Expert from this forum. If you run it in safe mode you do this at your own risk. Also to update it when you can not connect to the Internet you can follow the instructions in Section A Issue 4 located RIGHT HERE!
