[QUOTE="blackice, post: 926681, member: 79035"] I have used Emsisoft Emergency Kit a lot in the past. I may not use it as a common 3rd party scanner for now in combination with Microsoft Defender. Any time I run an update and scan Defender deletes some of the signatures during the scan. Emsisoft has confirmed it's a false positive on Defender's part, but I don't know what effect this is having on the scan for EEK. Just a heads up to anyone using it. Interestingly it is the first Real Time block I've ever seen from Defender. Apparently they changed something and made it more sensitive.
