[RESOLVED]strange behavior report file, then no reports

No I wouldn't have ignored it, as what it appears this registry key modification does is disable the search function in explorer, that could be to prevent you searching for malware.

So I suggest that you delete the entry from the ignore list, run MBAM again and let it deal with it, e.g. Remove. What it actually does is modify the key so it allows the search function.

1. No problem.
2. No, it can't be used by the system, it's locked in quarantine. (similar to the chest in avast) But you won't need it again, as it's malware. Just keep it there for some time for reference, if your problems are solved you can delete it later on. (2 weeks)
