[QUOTE="Rose_UK, post: 309188, member: 31375"] Alas, it showed up again in a Malwarebytes scan (log file attached)! I don't know if this helps, but I noticed that between 'quarantine' and 'delete', Advanced System Care displayed a pop-up warning that something was trying to change my home page, which I blocked. This has happened before but, just in case Advanced System Care was somehow implicated, I uninstalled it and restarted. But Malwarebytes, still scanning at the moment, has already found a Pup.Optional.SearchProtectA key in the registry ... Many thanks for all your help so far - and if you have any other ideas ...?
