Thank you for that immediate response and the passing of the info. Hopefully it is well received.

Basically, an "OK" button is just to acknowledge that something is understood or something completed, whereas "Yes", "Reboot", etc actually says "do this thing".

Went away for the weekend, MBAM found an update and I installed it, said the PC needed to reboot but that it would automatically reboot in 10 minutes. The dialog only had an "OK" button. This kind of dialog did not clearly warn me that clicking "OK" would immediately reboot the PC. Thankfully,vi wasn't working on anything important, but perhaps redesigning that dialog to have the button say "Reboot Now" might be better understood what will actually happen, much like installing drivers often offers two options: "Restart Now" and "Restart Later".

well, false positive is back again. Had Winrar 64-bit for years with MBAM running actively (even on multiple PC's), and overnight got this.
