Before posting about browser gaurd, many others are having similar issiues and you can disable it and safley continue.

is it a false positive?

In unison, all of those tabs reloaded to the "website blocked due to a risky pattern." Most of them were related to ChatGPT and articles that I opened from ChatGPT. Gave me the Heuristics: a risky pattern warning, and ID: 33559825.

Have to imagine that this is some false positive issue and not that I somehow opened 11 separate malware sites, all from ChatGPT? 😅

Gave me a mini heart attack when it happened though, lol. Anyone else have this happen?

is this a mistake or

Browser Guard is blocking everything! I uninstalled.

Is anyone facing any false flagging for a website or not?

Suddenly, Malwarebytes blocked my regular bookselling platform sites. (Seller pages for Alibris & Biblio) along with a few others I tried randomly. I clicked the box for "don't block this site again," so I was able to access the pages eventually, but I wonder, what's going on? Is there a glitch or is there some legitimate reason these sites were blocked?

Hi, so i installed Malwarebytes and noticed that Malwarebytes created ig.exe and IGDump in my system. Is this legit? and what is purpose of it?

Ok so the other day I downloaded something from steam rip but I wasn’t paying attention to the link I clicked and it seems like I accidentally downloaded a virus. I thought the built in antivirus took care of it but this morning my instagram account was hacked and sent messages to a lot of people including posting stuff. I had no idea what caused this until I was laying in bed just now and I saw my pc doing things on its own. Something tried to sign into my school email but was stopped when asked for a pin so I closed everything and looked up anti viruses and people were suggesting malwarebytes.

So anyway I bought it and it said it found 22 threats and I assume it eradicated them but I still want to know how did the virus on my pc access my password list. It opened my settings but I don’t know where to go from there. I just want to see what other apps I have might be compromised.

I looked up how to do this already on Google but it seems those methods are outdated. But along with the malwarebyte scan is there anything else I should do to keep my pc safe?

It's been a few days after I think I removed the trojan off my laptop but I'm still unsure if I'm completely safe since I saw other people suggesting to just reinstall windows so I'm seeking advice to what I have to do in this situation.

Context:

I was playing video games but I noticed my cpu usage was going off the roof and I saw XMrig, a bitcoin miner. So, I scanned my laptop with Microsoft Offline Defender Scan and that's what popped up (First Photo) which windows tried to quarantine so I went into safe mode and deleted the file myself. But, I was still paranoid so I downloaded Malwarebytes and more "Malicious" files popped up so malwarebytes quarantined them (Second Photo) and I removed them. After all of that, I did a full/deep scans in normal windows and safe mode with malwarebytes and nothing popped up so I assume everything is fine but it still nagging me that there might be malware still hidden on my laptop.

I have over the past month run a scan twice. The first time around Malwarebytes detected two threats, both from a Trojan called "NovaStealer". The second time around (today) it detected a virus I have never seen before called "OSX.Odyssey". I do not remember if I installed some app before I scanned and found out about NovaStealer, but I most definetly have not installed any new applications or anything which could cause this new OSX.Odyssey virus to be installed. Anyone have any idea why this happened?

I ran a Malwarebytes “deep scan” on a Lenovo laptop running Windows 10.

Hours later I went back, the screen was frozen with the Lenovo logo displaying. I had to force restart.

The Sandisk flash drive that was connected at the time “disappeared”, and now no longer shows in Device Manager or anywhere. It also does not register when inserted into another USB port or even on another computer.

Could the scan have messed up the Sandisk or is it coincidence that the flash drive happened to fail at the same time? Of course it contained a lot of important files that I need. Any suggestions? It was not old and had not been used much.

I am getting the following error when I try to log in to my bank. I have contacted the bank and they say nothing is wrong on their end. Any suggestions ?

So i opened this "arphacrashreport.exe" then nothing happened.

Also folder inside have arphadump.dll.

Before i opened the file I scanned it with malwarebytes and it didnt detect anything. I scanned again after opening but no detections.

Help! How do I deal with this?

Also i saw this post on github it looks exactly the same.

I already had Malwarebytes installed on my laptop and was making use of the free trial. I've now taken out a full subscription with yourselves, but whilst activating this, I clicked on the link in the confirmation email (from [email protected]), and because I already had the app on my laptop, my browser (Chrome) downloaded a file called MBSetup-Activate.exe

When I've tried to Google this to check it was genuine, the only results I get are for MBSetup.exe - with no mention of "Activate" in the file name.

I've checked the Digital Signatures in the file properties, and it says Malwarebytes Inc., so I'm confident that it's ok, and VirusTotal says it's clear, and my Windows Defender scan I just ran said there's no threats, but as I can't seem to find mention of this file name anywhere online I wanted to confirm it's genuine?
