Malwarebytes/Spigot?

[Peter Franks]

I can't see if the top 3 are also 'Spigot' related because the name line doesn't expand any more, but assume it's all related, but can I just trust to delete whatever Malwarebytes says, within reason, and not try finding it myself afterwards? I've not heard of Spigot, and there's not much on here about it recently, Out of interest, what does it do?

Thanks. I don’t actually have any extensions like that at all. AdBlock and that’s it

Peter Franks -

If MalwareBytes presents these items as "threats to get rid of", for gosh sakes, GET RID OF THEM.

Then... run MalwareBytes again, to see if they're "gone".

Yeh, they are, thanks.

A bit of caution is needed with MalwareBytes. It only ever found false positives on my former Win 7 Dell. I once deleted something that I should not have, and had to deal with the resultent headaches.

I'm guessing most of it is pretty safe, Assume quarantine before deletion, just in case
