Ok this morning i hat MBAM scan my HD and it found nothing that time. So i went to work
and after i got home i checked if there was a update, which there was. My database is
version 1855 now.

But to get to the point...i haven't been on the internet all day and after the update this
afternoon, i hat MBAM scan my HD again...and now i suddenly got this result:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\AntiVirusDisableNotify (Hijack.SecurityCenter) -> Bad: (1) Good: (0) -> No action taken.
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Security Center\UpdatesDisableNotify (Hijack.SecurityCenter) -> Bad: (1) Good: (0) -> No action taken.

I didn't place the entire logfile since it is in Dutch but i find it weird that i didn't get this
warning in the morning...but i did just now? The reason why i am not sure if this is really
a threat is because i have deactivated the self protection from Avira. Maybe not smart,
but when i play a game i want to be able to deactivate as much as possible.

I have also set Windows so that i check myself for updates and not automatic. So with
that in mind should i take action or can i ignore this warning?

Since i can not edit my previous post i will have to do it this way.

I searched around and saw that this person "edge" hat the same problem.

Considering what i wrote in my post above this one...about having deactivated
Aviras self protection and manual update for Windows, can i as such assume that
it is also a false possitive in my case, and have MBAM ignore it from now on?

Hi,

Yes since you consented to them being switched off then its best to add to the MBAM ignore list so you are not being repeatedly picked up by subsequent MBAM scans.
