  1. Missing file after Malwarebytes scan


    Hi there, i scanned my desktop awhile ago using Malwarebytes premium, it reported a few threats and quarantined it. I happen to delete all the quarantined files and am having a bit of a problem whenever i start my pc.
    i get an error stating that im missing an exe file (see image attached) and this pops up every time i boot my pc, its quite an annoyance but nothing critical to my pc's health.

    i hope i could find a solution on how to remove it.
    thank you.

    :)

  2. Malwarebytes = False Positive??

    Recently downloaded Malwarebytes and decided to do a quick scan after noticing random slow downs on my machine.

    Now i regularly run a full scan with Windows Defender and KIS using the full rootkit scan option.

    when I ran Malwarebytes. it came up with this


    Missing file after Malwarebytes scan FalsePositive.jpg


    I googled this after it was detected and theres not really that much information on it at all. but whatever little information there is, conflicts with one another.

    There are some sites that say that it isnt a threat. then there are those that say it is a 'medium' threat and describes how to remove it.

    Ive tried using Malwarebytes to remove it more then 5 times. I even went into safe mode to scan and see if i can removed them both with Malwarebytes and both manually following the steps on a website. however. even though Malwarebytes has detected the threat in that particular folder. when i do a file search or look for it manually with folder options set to show all hidden files. I cant seem to find it at all. and the only UL.dll file is located in a Roxio Shared folder.

    Windows defender didnt pick anything up. Kaspersky 2012 on a full custom scan with the rootkit option selected didnt pick anything up.

    and i have OCD so im starting to panic as i dont want to completely reinstall windows as this install is pretty fresh.

    I have no idea how something like this would get past kaspersky and regular scans. Im always careful of the sites i visit otherwise kaspersky would block me from entering the site.

    WHAT DO I DO?
