  1. I tried again and I searched for the wrong setting. This hack worked on my net book.
  2. I did a Google search for intel+3150+better+settings which is my graphic adapter. I found a fix which I was unable to use. Back to square One.
  3. I have the same problem on a Toshiba Net Book Windows 7. Resolution is 1024x600 and cannot be adjusted above 600. There is no driver update to change resolution. A registry hack would help a lot.
  4. No problem. I believe the problem is fixed. Really strange !!! Thanks
  5. May 22 was the last time it happened. I had just purchased a license before Version 2 came on line and thought I would use it on this laptop. Uninstalled ver 2 and installed with new license and that is when this problem started. Now this is really crazy. The last thing I did on May 22 was uninstall/clean registry and reinstall with the old license. I did not use Change License in My Account since I didn't see the option. I guess MBM must hide a file or registry entry. I will use the Change License option and see what happens.
  6. Another point of view. A Threat Scan, scans only where the author believes where malware may be hiding. I think they are very close. Now other programs have their own ideas and may not scan where MBM does. This is why one program is not enough. A Custom Scan scans everything, Author approved or not.
  7. Every program puts stuff in the registry and their special "cleanup" program never gets rid of everything. Most entries left over don't mean/do anything. I still like to see them gone. I am pretty sure my two tray icons problem is gone as of 5/22, but not sure, If it is. You will not believe what caused the problem. I will wait a few more days to post what happened. It was a MBM caused problem.
  8. I only posted a reply because it sounds like a firewall is blocking access to the update server.
  9. My only thought is that your firewall is blocking MBM. Maybe when you installed the new version, you missed the firewall asking if the program is allowed internet access.
  10. Understood. Thought I would comment if he was still around.
  11. That file is in Windows/Prefetch and it is ok I have one also.
  12. OK. I don't have a scheduled scan set up.
  13. I haven't really paid attention, but how are database updates notified ? My desktop 8.1 is not showing 2 icons for an update and tat was boote 10 minutes after this laptop.
  14. They are both 2.0.2.1012. One reads 2014.5.21.10 yesterday The other 2014.5.22.6 today I looked in taskmanager Windows 8.1 and there are two mbam.exe in details tab. Looks like it's being started twice I couldn't find from where. I am going to run Autoruns to see if I can find something. Give me a minute ....Couldn't find anything weird. Trying Processexplarer next
  15. Versio 2.0.2.1012. Ran clean and went through the registry. Ran a batch file to clean the tray icon cache. Installed 1012. This morning cold boot they are back. Logs enclosed CheckResults.txt FRST.txt
  16. Found a batch file to clean the tray icon cache. now wait
  17. Beta 2.02.1010 did not repair problem. First boot of the day had 2 icons. Did a restart and back to one.icon in tray. FRST.txt CheckResults.txt
  18. Malwarebytes does detect and remove OpenCandy, I had it once.
  19. Thanks, I did not know which beta to try. I was about two weeks between when it first happened.
  20. This happened yesterday after much time since the first time.I reinstalled 2.0.1.104 One icon shows 2014.5.16.15 the other 2014 5.16.11 Windows 8.1.1 64 bit CheckResults.txt Addition.txt FRST.txt
  21. The setting IS WARN IF DATABASE IS OUT OF DATE BY X DAY. HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH GETTING UPDATES. READ THE OPTIONS BEFORE YOU SAY SOMEONE IS WRONG.
  22. I give up trying to reason with this person as he does his own thing and won't even try something. There is a similar person on a Win 8 newsgroup and everyone stopped trying to help for the same reason.
  23. Just try it and don't say we don't have the same thing happening.
  24. Make sure in update settings that update options box is set to two or more. The default is one day.
