joesedillo Posted October 1, 2010 ID:321330 Share Posted October 1, 2010 (edited) When i log on to my computer it gives me the following message: "do you want to allow the following program [malwarebytes] to make changes to this computer?" followed by yes or no. the 'no' is usually highlighted. i have been clicking 'yes' expecting that my computer will then identify/quarrantine any viruses/problems waiting to enter. is this correct? if so, why is the 'no' highlighted as if it was 'recommended'? what is the significance of this question? have i erred by by saying 'yes'; or should i be saying 'no'??? please help.

noknojon Posted October 1, 2010 ID:321337 Share Posted October 1, 2010 Hi joesedillo-The computer is just asking permission to run the program - Then you start the scan -You just click on yse and the program will open -It is only the UAC (User Account Control) confirming it is OK to procede -If you look at the Malwarebytes Icon , it will most likely have a Shield on the M picture -Thank You -EXTRA -User Account Control (UAC) is a technology and security infrastructure introduced with Microsoft's Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008 operating systems,Also please do not post your email account on the board , this only helps spammers - Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
