Hello,
I am new to this forum just now discovered it although I have had Malwarebytes on my computer since Nov. 25, 2008. I did purchase it although realize I really did not have to I like supporting the products I use. I do have an Internet Security program as well and this works well side by side with it.
Now the reason I am posting is just to ease my mind I am pretty sure Malwarebytes has already removed the threat that somehow got by Internet Security , the entire address that this threat was discovered at wasC:\WINDOWS\$NtServicePackUninstall$\wextract.exe(Backdoor.Bot)--->Quarantined and deleted successfully.the bold type is exactly how it showed under files infected after running the Malwarebytytes scan.

This forum is very similar to the Internet Security forum I use as well and find these forums to be very helpful and like I mentioned above Pretty sure the threat was taken care of. I Googled and could not find anything it mentioned in the task manager or though the windows exployer searching for the named files , but any addedadvice would be welcome none the less . Thanks in advance fr your time. <_<
:p .... I amaze myself !.....sometimes..

I think this may be a False Positive.

Please restore the file and then, Click the Start Menu, Run, and type the following: mbam.exe /developer and post back that log.

Or, you can just restore the file and UPDATE MBAM again and scan again. I think this was already reported and fixed in newer defs. Current defs are 1790
