So, Ron, do you recommend that we (those of us with Windows 8) go for it? I've just got my new Windows 8 laptop late last month.

BTW, I actually like Windows 8.

Thanks for checking. Sometimes I was able to get the main page and then no further. Sometimes not even that would load. No error message, just no page.

8! Wow! It was hard to tell how many black ones there were. She's a good mum, especially considering this is her first litter.

I've been enjoying explore.org since you first introduced us to the site a few months ago, Mr. C. Thanks!

So, is the take-away from this fiasco that we should un-check the option to have MBAM automatically quarantine suspected files?

I normally have MBAM set up this way as well. Late last night, I noticed that the automatic quarantine option had the check placed back in, probably after the newest program version was downloaded and installed. I removed the check. It just so happens that I didn't update the database today because I wasn't home, and I don't have MBAM set to do it automatically (I have a longstanding issue with my entire system freezing solid and needing a reboot occasionally after a MBAM update, so I always do it manually). Whew!

I do always investigate before I allow a quarantine.
