[SOLVED] StackExec FP opening Internet Explorer

[FLJack]

HI,

 

I cannot open Internet Explorer.  I’m unsure of when this situation began as I don’t use IE very often, but I believe it may have started when I updated from Malwarebytes Anti Exploit v 1.07.1.1011 to v1.07.1.1015 on August 3.  As I didn't experience this earlier.  

 

When I attempt to open IE I get the following message:

 

Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit has blocked an exploit attempt

Application:  Internet Explorer (and add-ons)              

Protection Layer:  Protection Against OS Security Bypass

Protection Technique:  Exploit code executing from stack blocked

File/Process Blocked:  N/A

Attacking URL:  N/A

 

My environment:  Windows 7-64, IE 11, MSE

I have reviewed the Known Issues and Conflicts posting in the forum.  The only item that pertains to me is Trusteer Rapport, which is the current version.  I made the change suggested but the condition continues.

 

I've attached the zipped Anti Exploit folder from Program Data.

 

Any advice other than uninstalling MBAE?

 

Thanks for your help.

Thank you pbust.  I'll give this a go after I get home from work.

I'm having the same issue with Version 1015 after reloading Windows 7 x64 and installing all past and current security updates.   If MBAE is running none of my browsers (IE11, Firefox 40, or Chrome 44) will even open when I click on the icon on the task bar.   Once I stop MBAE from running all browsers will open and function normally.   Really a pain.  Hope you have a fix soon!

I've attached the Program Data files.
