Hi. As per topic title, I am a new user (up to now I've been using mostly A-2). Earlier this week someone tried XoftSpy on my computer because they thought I might have spyware, it reported some problems but since all I can find on the'net regarding that program is negative, I don't take it TOO seriously, however I thought it best to check the system with something else.

I ran Malwarebytes, it sees 3 problems (I hope I have posted log correctly) but at least one I think is my choice, not that of Malware - I have my computer set to notify me about MS updates but not downloads; also I use Firefox not IE, so I don't know if one is related to that. The third I have no idea.

Thanks for your help.

Welcome to the forums.

Those findings are not actually false\positives or actual infections but rather settings which you have made and in some cases, malware also makes. So we scan those sections of the drive for changes which differ from default settings

Please see the link below for an explanation:

You can add them to ignore your next scan.
