Sartori Posted February 10, 2010 ID:197934 Share Posted February 10, 2010 HelloI ran across this nasty bugger today. Could not for the life of me get MBAM to install, did all the tricks that you suggest in your common issues section. Renaming, killing the process, etc. Yes I tried everything....safe mode also...Mcafee didn't pick this up, Windows defender, or the Windows Malicious Software Removal Tool.I finally decided to try Spyware Doctor and got it too install and it found all the threats, and removed them...Why are these new fake security programs targeting MBAM so much? Is it because its such a popular program and works so well? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sartori Posted February 10, 2010 Author ID:198007 Share Posted February 10, 2010 Shoot, I renamed it everything except the .com part, will remember that now....I hope. Everybody was in a panic this morning as this was on a business computer so was kinda in a hurry and trying to get it back up and running.....
