    Hi Broni,
    I downloaded Secunia Personal Software Inspector (PSI): but I got this message
    'installer integrity check has failed. Common causes include incomplete download and damaged media. contact the installers author to obtain a new copy.

    more information at:
    HTTP://nsis.sf.net/nsis_error

    When I plugged my camera into my computer a panel popped up and offered me choices on downloading (or is it uploading) to my computer.
    It does not happen anymore, and I wonder why.
    do you think it was removed?

    Regarding Secunia, I suggest, you ask a question in their very friendly forum, located at http://secunia.com/community/forum/

    The other issue....

    Because the access to malware forum is very limited, your best option is to create new topic about your current issue, at Windows section.

    Folder missing in administrator folder

    Hi,
    I am reposting this from reply 4, if it is not clear let me know.
    Reply 4
    When saving the log file I see a problem. when saving I see the logs folder, upto Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware folder, upto Malwarebytes' folder, upto Application folder, upto administrator folder. The problem is in the administrator folder there is no Application folder. it is gone, as I mentioned in my earlier post. In fact if I close after saving I don't see how I can get back to the logs folder. There seems to be a break.
    I will pause now and hopefully you can help.
    Thanks,
    Lewis

    What actual log are you referring to?
    MBAM log can be found:
    C:\Documents and Settings\{Your user name}\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
    Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt

    Hi,
    I noted this problem in reply #1.
    There were 3 folders in C:\Documents and Settings and now there only 2.
    C:\Documents and Settings\{Your user name}\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
    The application folder has dissappeared. I think it is still there, only not visible.
    When I saved som earlier logs I noticed they were being saved where they were supposed to. The directory showed when saving but is invisable in the C:\Documents and Settings folder.
    The applications folder is large and I have to remove items all the time. Can it be recovered?
    Lewis

    I'm not sure, if I understand what you're saying, but you can always create a new folder.

    When I started there were 3 folders in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\.
    After we started one folder disappeared from the folder. It was Application Data.
    Please let me know if that is clear.

    It looks like all folders are right there.
    They're simply hidden.
    Open Windows Explorer, go Tools>Folder options>View tab and checkmark "Show hidden files and folders ".
    OK your way out.
