Gladly if they still exist. Where would I find those?
-
Please ignore, despite the warning that self protection must be turned off before running the MBAM Clean tool, it actually worked so the SP must not have actually turned on when it BSOD'd. So now it has reinstalled OK and I've activated my license once more.
Still find the BSOD business rather odd.
-
Darn it, I can't edit my appalling grammar....oh well. Apologies.
-
MBAM Premium 2 was running fine and updating fine and not fiinding any problems until I decided to activate self protection in Settings and immediately my machine blue screened. The BSOD said something about chameleon.sys. Rebooted to Safe Mode w/Networking and uninstalled. Rebooted again to that mode, tried install, failed, several notices popped up, tried Chameleon, all 13 times and all failed similarly. I can't have any malware as I have only just reinstalled Vista Ultimate SP2 with All Access Total Protection from McAfee active and protecting already and I've certainly not done anything that would would be considered risky. So I'm wondering if perhaps there's a server down somewhere that isn't linking up properly with the installer?
I'm wondering if your protection module may clash with McAfee's?
Right now I'm operating without any MBAM as it wont install. Unfoetunately I had no restore points to fall back on either which is unfortunate.
-
I think the plugin is buggy and will follow up on that. Meanwhile I'll turn it off only when it really gets annoying. Annoying as in (for instance) an Adobe Newsletter that is totally blank apart from "to view this on the web click here".
-
Well the A/V would catch anything anyway as it tries to load, Email Scanning is often regarded as a possibly unnecessary extra in some circles. I';ll certainly turn it back on when I can find out if there's a fix for the issue from McAfee.
-
Yes. thanks. ;-)
-
Thanks. Since turning off email scanning in my A/V it appears to have corrected iteself. I think it was over-compensating as nothing in my mail is remotely dangerous. Alrwady been well-filtered by Spamcop.
-
Thanks very much ;-)
-
It isn't Earth shattering so I wont pursue it. It seems intermittent anyway so could easily be an issue with my ISP. I just thought there may have been some similar reports.
The only popup I got today was for one website I visited and it was OK so cleared it.
This was with Vista Ultimate SP2/Incredimail XE (premium) but noticed it sometimes occurs in Windows Mail too. My A/V is McAfee All Access - Total Protection. I've just turned off Email Scanning in that as a recent update to that may be the cause too.
I'll let it go for now thanks again.
-
I've noticed some emails come in blank except for the text and this spoils my reading because I always opt for HTML emails. That issue corrects itself if I reboot, but only for a while. It only started after I activated full protection in MBAM and hasn;t occurred before.
Comments?
-
Don't bother with this...problem sorted out, thanks.

This morning I noticed the desktop took much longer than normal to load and in the Event Viewer were two drivers that didn't belong, apparently from SuperAntiSpyware, which I have never had installed on this OS which was freshly formatted and reinstalled a month ago.
Error 16/05/2011 7:14:18 AM Service Control Manager 7026 None "The following boot-start or system-start driver(S) failed to load:SASDIFSV
SASKUTIL"
That may not have been the problem as I also noticed that Firefox 4 had disabled SiteAdvisor for reasons unknown.
I did a restore to the 14th and it seemed marginally better but still hung. So I uninstalled all my McAfee protection and used their cleanup tool. I'm a Moderator at McAfee Forums so feel rather guilty bothering you guys, but maybe I have a rootkit or similar?
Now I can't install McAfee anyway as it says I need to have Javascript enabled...it is as far as I know and I updated Java also. IE9 is at default settings so everything should work.
Now I am using MSE for protection for the time being. Any ideas? HJT log herewith:

Enabling Self Protection Gave Immediate BSOD - Can't Reinstall

I'd rather not repro it if you don't mind as I'm rather busy right now. With hidden and sys files showing all I can see in the Windows folder is a minidump folder and there's a small file inside that, is that it?
