Malwarebytes will not open

I have a Dell laptop running Windows 7.  I picked up something (I suspect a Firefox update).  Now Malwarebytes will not open.  I uninstalled it, then downloaded and installed it again as well as Adwcleaner.  Neither one will open.  Malwarebytes shows in the tray but that is it.  All executables show no errors.  They just will not start.  All of this started this morning (8/3/2017).  I have noti...

Re: pup optional legacy

Could you define the nature of the pop-up? Is it in the browser? On the desktop? through certain applications? When did the issue start happening? (Please answer these before continuing the read)

Since I am not certain about how it manifests, I can only offer a general thorough PC clean-up. The following steps should help you remove the issues, but make sure to post MBAM and ADW logs after sca...

Re: Error ADW 7.0.1.0

I guess, i found out, where the error came from.  After the scan has finished, following screen can be seen:

Nevertheless, the findings of the "PUP.Adware.Heuristic" in the folder "C:\ProgramData\Audyssee Labs" you cannot find in the protocol file!

Re: Error ADW 7.0.1.0

Could you try restarting your PC in safe mode with networking, install Malwarebytes, do a full scan with them and then attempt to scan with AdwCleaner. 

Before that, you could also use RKill to kill any malicious software before using anti-malware. Let me know if this helps.

on Android by spinon

HI Folks,

Although I'm currently not using MalwareBytes on my Android devices, I have used this app on Android in the past. And I like it very much for its simplicity. It does, as the name suggests, take care of malware. No silly optimizers or other useless add-ons.

:-)

Please check for F/P

Re: My AdwCleaner has a problem

Have you had any other success determining the issue? Have you tried first scanning with Malwarebytes and then AdwCleaner afterward? What OS are you running and which version? Because that might cause an issue with compatibility (Very rare case). Try launching the application in the admin mode? This guide also has more info about compatibility, IF it is the issue. Speculating at this point. Let...
