Hello

I am attempting to assist my sister who has an XP tower run Malwarebytes, but when she runs the programme after x amount of HOURS (she has a huge amount of files on her hard drive, so the programme has a lot of work to do), XP shuts down and she is unable to see the RESULTS of her Malwarebytes 'full system scan'.

I am guessing that XP shuts down after a certain amount of time, but I am unable to advise her how to alter that time so that the computer doesn't actually ever turn itself off.

What advise should I give her, please?

Thank you.What other Protection apps do you have ? ?

MBAM although very GOOD at what it does is not an Anti-Virus app...She has Avast and I have set Windows UPDATES to automatic. And she has her Windows firewall on. Run avast 1st...reboot ans re-run MBAM...

If either results in the same shutdown visit our Malware section of the Forum and have the experts have a looksee...I will do that today, Patio, thanks for your reply.Anytime...run the Update for it 1st...and bring us good NEWS.
