Malware wont run in normal mode, but will in safe mode

[roadie]

Hello, I cant remember what popped originally, but i tried running Malewarebytes in normal mode to try and get rid of this problem. The computer kept prompting me with the "open with...." box. I went into safe mode and the program ran started up and asked me to update it. I just wanted to run it first with out updating incase it was the virus. Ran the program and it found 2 things and removed them. I then restarted the computer and did the same thing in safemode. I updated the database and it found 4 additional items. I then tried to run the Malewarebytes in normal mode and again prompted with the "open with..." thing again. Is there anything i can do?

Hi

Please log in into the account where exe files won't run, this in NORMAL mode.

Then, make sure extensions are shown, see here how to do this. If you use XP, see here

Then, navigate to the C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Antimalware folder and locate the file mbam.exe in there

Rename mbam.exe to mbam.com

Then, doubleclick mbam.com. This will allow malwarebytes to open. First use the update tab and check if there are updates. Download the updates.

Then, perform a quick scan and let Malwarebytes remove what it found. Reboot afterwards.
