My OS is Windows Vista SP1. Malware bytes v1.30. I ran a Mb scan and when it was finished the results reported no malware found. Then a small window opened and showed a runtime error '7' out of memory. what does this mean? I also use Spyware Doctor 6.0.0.386 and when I did a manual update from Malware bytes, Spyware Doctor threw up a warning saying that it was suspicious and trying to install a file to run at start up, it gave me the option to quarantine which I did until I find out about this. Have you heard of this yet? I am new so if I posted to the wrong area sorry!

You quarantined MBAM's updater?
Restore the file that Spyware Doctor quarantined, then update again and don't quarantine it.

False positive by SpywareDoctor, un-quarantine it and all should be well again.

I thought it was a FP. I just wanted to hear for sure that it was! Thanks for the fast reply, you rock!!!

Oh, almost forgot, was the runtime error '7' out of memory related to Spyware Doctor?

Yes, I did but it can always be restored! Thanks

I am unsure about that error. Please let me know if it happens again.

Ok, I think that it had something to do with Vista and not MB. Thanks for your reply and I will let you know if it happens again. I ran another scan and I did not get that error again. All seems good and thanks again.
