Aura Posted June 13, 2016 ID:1045145 Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) Another suggestion that might be stupid: go in Internet Options, under General, and click on the Settings/Tabs button under Tabs. Do you have the "Always open pop-ups in new tab" option enabled under "When a pop-up is encountered"? Quote you’re welcome .... have you yet to try uninstalled both IE and Firefox and then reinstalled them ? I myself i have a blank/white webpages problem with Firefox browser ! and for IE I don’t use it so much so I don’t know if I can help or not You cannot uninstall Internet Explorer, just downgrade it, and I wouldn't suggest doing that since most of the time, you'll have a really hard time upgrading it back. Quote if that not help then a clean install of both browser may solved your problem ! (if you use Firefox try to make a new test profile) Not possible to clean install Internet Explorer. Also, I think the issue is only present in Internet Explorer, not Mozilla Firefox. Edited June 13, 2016 by Aura Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also thanks for filling in to @mrdodrop on the info that IE is not really un-installable and the issue at hand is with IE. Last night it started working on my home computer correctly, but this morning its back at it. Thing is, its not the popup that is the issue, its that fact that it redirects the page your on (MBAM site) to the s3 amazon page where it grabs the attachment. This happens whether you get the popup to download it, or the notification to download it at the bottom of the browser. I can right click an attachment and select open in new tab, it then gives me the option to open/save the attachment, and I am left with a blank page with the address bar as below in the code tags. original link to download a log file https://forums.malwarebytes.org/applications/core/interface/file/attachment.php?id=197464 after clicking on open this is the link I am left with https://s3.amazonaws.com/forums.malwarebytes.org/monthly_2016_06/FRST.txt.3639838568aff546c563517ba8834ecf.txt?X-Amz-Algorithm=AWS4-HMAC-SHA256&X-Amz-Content-Sha256=UNSIGNED-PAYLOAD&X-Amz-Credential=AKIAJRCHF3O4GTPMYBUQ%2F20160613%2Fus-east-1%2Fs3%2Faws4_request&X-Amz-Date=20160613T143314Z&X-Amz-Expires=1200&X-Amz-SignedHeaders=host&response-content-disposition=attachment%3B+filename%3D%22FRST.txt%22&X-Amz-Signature=60021a2946a09fc719e8a87bd96ecb0f64c617cdb29605b90935e2a1a3f7f6e3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We already know that you like to be-little the people you help... that being said, no I don't need any help from you, go find someone else to bug. No, you can never assume anything. You may or may not be familiar with what Jerry Belson said about assuming things. I also know that a majority of techs have sense enough to Google for the solution to problems they encounter. However, none of this excuses your poor behavior. I'm sorry that you're having this problem but you really should be nicer to people who are responding to your request for help. You've been rude to @Porthos as well which is completely uncalled for. I've seen this issue in Firefox before. Where a blank tab would open for any file type download. Since the issue is in IE, that is why it was suggested to go under Advanced and Reset your IE settings. However the Firefox issue was a simple fix that you can see here. Upon doing some light Google-fu, it is also said that this can be a problem with a slow network. If you're running a proxy, check the settings there and make sure everything is configured. Using a software firewall? Try removing IE and allowing a new rule to be created. @mrdodrop - You said you're having this issue in Firefox. Have you tried clicking the Hamburger (weird that most call it this...) icon/menu, clicking on the Help question mark, going to Troubleshooting Information, and clicking Reset Firefox? This will backup your addons and such to a folder on the desktop, yet retain your bookmarks and such while giving you a clean profile to work with. I personally find it nicer to do this as opposed to simply uninstalling and reinstalling. If you have questions on how that works, there's a nice explanation here.

An idea, but no proxy is being used, this is at three different locations 3 different ISP's. Also it works correctly on other computers on the same network so can't blame the hardware firewalls. Have you tried it using In-Private mode with toolbars and extensions disabled? No hardware firewall, what about a software firewall (worth asking since your signature mentions Watchguard firewall)? Also, have you tried booting into Safe Mode with Networking and seeing if the issue is reproducible there? The reason I ask about this is because it will stop any anti-virus, firewall, and pretty much any other non-Microsoft software from running which might be causing this issue. Something has to be in common here, and I'm very interested to find out what it could be. Hope we can get this resolved for you. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted June 13, 2016 Author ID:1045222 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Here is a twist... If I run right click on Internet Explorer and tell it to Run As Admin, all is well. Clicking on the attachments prompts me to open/save/cancel and no matter what option I choose it leaves me on the page where I was downloading the attachments from. Getting closer.... Private mode -> issues exists with blank page redirect Safe mode -> have not tired it yet Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aura Posted June 13, 2016 ID:1045228 Share Posted June 13, 2016 Alright. Also, since it works under Safe Mode, you could try to configure a clean boot and see if it still works. From there, enable the programs/services one by one, until the issue reappears, and you'll find the culprit. It's long, though most of the time I start by enabling a bunch of programs/services I know won't cause issues like Adobe, Google Update, iTunes, etc. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tarun Posted June 13, 2016 ID:1045241 Share Posted June 13, 2016 (edited) It could be UAC, it's been a while since I had to work in Safe Mode. I cannot really recall if UAC works there or not. I think it does but i could be wrong. Something worth trying it getting an output of your startup programs. Open a Command Prompt as an Admin and enter the following code: wmic startup get caption,command > C:\startup.txt That will output your startups into a text document that you can share with us with an easy copy/paste. Also, thanks for all the information on this issue you're having. Edited June 13, 2016 by Tarun Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexSmith Posted June 14, 2016 ID:1045260 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) The filter driver for UAC is disabled by default in Safe Mode. Since disabiling UAC and running IE in an elevated state resolves the issue, then that means you have a permissions issue somewhere. My go to tool for uncovering the root cause of a permissions or access denied problem is using ProcMon from Sysinternals to record the problem then dogging through the results for access denied errors.

Gt-truth Posted June 14, 2016 ID:1045263 Share Posted June 14, 2016 (edited) Some anti-virus / anti-malware software caused the permission issues just like bitdefender and reason core security (an anti-malware software) and that’s why I removed both of them lol ! since mbam + bitdefender is killing my system I had to uninstall it !
