Malwarebytes, Norton Security, Win 7 Home Premium, and Google


Recommended Posts

I have Win 7 Home Premium on my Dell PC; MB3 conflicts withNortonSecurity causing me to lose internet access. I use Google Chrome for browsing., and that is when I lose connection. What can I do?

If I run MB without the "Firewall," then I do not lose connection.

Hi and Welcome,

We need to get some Diagnostic logs to see what's is going on there.

 

  • Create and obtain an mb-check log
    1. Download MB-Check and save to your desktop
    2. Double-click to run MB-Check and within a few second the command window will open, then click "OK" 
    3. This will produce one log file on your desktop: mb-check-results.zip
      • Attach this file to your forum post by clicking on the "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." or simply drag the file to the attachment area
  • Create and obtain Farbar Recovery Scan Tool (FRST) logs
    1. Download FRST and save it to your desktop
      Note: You need to run the version compatible with your system. You can check here if you're not sure if your computer is 32-bit or 64-bit
    2. Double-click to run FRST and when the tool opens click "Yes" to the disclaimer
    3. Press the "Scan" button
    4. This will produce two files in the same location (directory) as FRST: FRST.txt and Addition.txt
      • Attach both of these logs to your forum post by clicking on the "Drag files here to attach, or choose files..." or simply drag the files to the attachment area

"Download FRST" not considered safe by Norton Security and deleted.

This is a false positive with this tool, its used 1000's of times a day to analyze systems all over the world, you can allow it to download..
