Staff miekiemoes Posted March 13, 2009 Staff ID:64186 Share Posted March 13, 2009 Hi,This policy is being set by malware in most cases, so actually, this is no false positive.This would be the same as the policy for disable taskmanager, disable regedit etc was set by malware - while some people may also have added it by themselves. So, better to remove than to ignore.In your case, since you have set this policy, you can just ignore it in MBAM. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mbyuser Posted March 14, 2009 Author ID:64459 Share Posted March 14, 2009 thanks for your freely given time.and agin thank you for clearing that up.imo i think its a exelent idea that m/bytes put it back in place,mabye old but to me its a new way off going about things and i would rather it put it back than rip out somthing if you kwim. as you say i do have the option to put it into the ignore list.rather than a string of questions if its not out off order i might as well ask in this reply(i will have some questions as my daugher has brought her laptop around~what a mess)the module that m/bytes offers with the paid product would it clash with webroots spysweeper & anti virus?agiain thanks for your FREELY given time.
