OSCIVWAR Posted May 21, 2010 ID:253543 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Good morning,After MBAM (Full Version) completes an automatic scan IE8 will not start. In order to use IE8 I needed to restart my computer.Any thoughts as to why this would occur?Thanks. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maurice Naggar Posted May 22, 2010 ID:253862 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Is that a new "behavior" ? Did it just begin to happen?Has MBAM been finding infections?general question: Your version/edition of Windows is ??Invest the time and effort into having MBAM do a Full scan of your system (after first, closing all open apps & after starting an UPDATE run of MBAM). Make sure you get all clean result. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OSCIVWAR Posted May 22, 2010 Author ID:254057 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Maurice, My version of Windows is XP Home SP3. It has happened at least twice, and my computer is clean as I do full scans frequently using MBAM and AVAST 5 (FREE).Thanks for the response and questions.

Maurice Naggar Posted May 22, 2010 ID:254087 Share Posted May 22, 2010 Please, when starting a reply, only use the ADDReply button at bottom right of forum window.See what Event Viewer has in it's log. Select Start button/ select Run , then type ineventvwr.msc <Enter>-- or Go to Control Panel / Performance and Maintenance/Administrative Tools >Event Viewer.Review the sections and look for Errors or Warnings.quoting the late Ron Martell, MS-MVP check in Event Viewer for any other error messages that occurred at or nearly at the same time as this one. Right-click on My Computer and select Manage. Click on the + to expand the Event Viewer category to show the 3 or 4 subcategories. Browse through the System and Application categories and check out any entries there with date and time stamps that correspond to your error. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
