Windows 10: How do you download exploits?

I don't know how to download exploits...

Exploit malware stopping me from using Edge

Well, those removal steps I posted suggests you do have some Java version installed.

"JS/Exploit-Blacole (Exploit:JS/Blacole) is malicious Java code that exploits a vulnerability in the Java Runtime Environment component of Oracle Java SE and Java for Business that allows the execution of arbitrary code."

 

Malwarebytes anti-exploit free

Hi again Bruce.

I tried to uninstall MBAE from Control Panel and to make sure it had all gone I downloaded Revo Uninstaller as you suggested. When I ran it, though, MBAE did not appear in the list that appeared (although MB AntiMalware did). Also, nothing comes up in
Cortana now and I haven't had any messages about MBAE not running, so I perhaps I can assume that it has all gone.

I thought I'd try HitmanPro Alert, as suggested earlier, but I'll hang on for a while to see if I get any suggestions from the Malwarebytes forum.

Hopefully, in the meantime and not having any 'anti-exploit' protection I'll be fairly safe.

Agreed @Jetster that using a Limited User Account (LUA) should be the first step in secure computing. But it is only a step, not a complete solution. With exploits the actual shellcode and payload still executes within your browser, and a LUA will only prompt for certain types of payload malicious actions, such as downloading and executing an EXE. Even then the bad guys know this and have some tricks like for example trying to launch the EXE 30 times until the user gets tired and clicks "Yes" on the UAC prompt. Most soccer-mom users won't last more than 2 or 3 UAC prompts before they click Yes. Also LUAs won't stop some memory-only or file-less exploit payloads which execute in memory or are able to open a reverse backdoor shell to the attacker.
