Hello Stockholm,

A green Hijack.Start Menu

Registry Data

HKEY_CURREMT_USER/SOSTWARE/MICROSOFT/WINDOWS....

What is that ??????

Can you elaborate a bit more on this?

Do you mean you don't know whether those are infected files/registry items that MBAM found aftern a scan?

Or were these noticed by the antivirus/ internet security/ other security software installed on the system when you installed MBAM?

Where did you get the MBAM installation file? Is it from the official source: MajorGeeks, CNET or FileForumBeta (and are not from those sponsored links there)?

Just add a note: please use the "ADDREPLY" button at the bottom of the topic instead of the "REPLY" one, thank you.

Yes it was from MajorGeek - I installed it right away in Windows XP.

It was said: Bad 0 Good1

No action taken.

And it was, as I sad, on a brand new formatted PC - without anything else on - Yet.

It is now in "Carantaine".

Still I wonder what it is?

Hi again

I did as noknojon said.

Now it is OK

Downloadet Malwarebytes from internode.on.net this time. Just an information.

And the Anti-Virus program I use is Microsoft Security Essentials.

Thank you very much.
