Now Copy the bold text below to notepad. Save it as fixME.reg to your desktop. Be sure the "Save as" type is set to "all files" Once you have saved it double click it and allow it to merge with the registry.

Make sure that you tell me if you receive a success message about adding the above
to the registry. If you do not get a success message, it definitely did not work.

• Which browser(s) do the pop ups occur in?
• Are they still happening after following my fix?

 

Follow these instructions to reset Mozilla Firefox. Let me know if it makes a difference.

Reset Mozilla Firefox to defaults

 

Uninstall it and then run the Malware Bytes clean up Tool to be rid of all traces before you attempt reinstall.

(Topic for the software forum really)

Are there any other remaining issues to be dealt with in this forum, or is all well?

 

No problem. But you ought to get to the bottom of MBAM not running. Try what I said and if that doesn't work, post about it in the software forum if you like.


If you are not having any other malware problems, it is time to do our final steps:

1. We recommend you keep Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for scanning/removal of malware.
2. If we had you download any registry patches like fixme.reg or fixWLK.reg (or any others) and running MGclean.bat did not remove them, you can delete these files now.
3. Renable your Disk Emulation software with Defogger if you had disabled it in step 4 of the READ & RUN ME.
4. Go to add/remove programs and uninstall HijackThis. If you don't see it or it will not uninstall, don't worry about it. Just move on to the next step.
5. If running Vista, Win 7 or Win 8, it is time to make sure you have reenabled UAC by double clicking on the C:\MGtools\enableUAC.reg file and allowing it to be added to the registry.
6. Now goto the C:\MGtools folder and find the MGclean.bat file. Double click ( if running Vista, Win7, or Win 8 Right Click and Run As Administrator ) on this file to run this cleanup program that will remove files and folders related to MGtools and some other items from our cleaning procedures.
   
7. Any other miscellaneous tools we may have had you install or download can be uninstalled and deleted.
   
   
8. After doing the above, you should work thru the below link:
