Thanks Chip,
I am  already running Microsoft Security, due to being tired of playing around 
with somehow workable AntiViruses. Thing is, that it does not due a very 
thorough job, specially when comes to Spyware, Adware and other malware. These 
are not really viruses, in its cleanest definition - as you well might be aware 
of. So that's why I have installed a couple of other security packages, to care 
for the malwares. And, apparently Malwarebytes did find something that had 
escaped MS Security.

I did find a workaround within WinEyes, but still think this to be a lack of 
the native WinEyes, that it does not show up the buttons natively; right away. 
GW needs to look into this, and specially so, since the fix has been around for 
quite a while - although I did not think of it, before asking my initial 
question.

The fix is an app, called VirtualView. Installing that one, and have it open on 
the troublesome window from Malwarebytes, I could read the buttons, and was 
able to make my selection. And, as another user pointed out, even NVDA is 
capable of seeing the buttons - with no additional gadgets installed. Wonder 
why WinEyes does not recognize the buttons immediately. Please GW staff, could 
you take a look at that one? The VirtualView app has been around for a long 
time. If it really fixes that kind of important lacks of WinEnes - like seeing 
buttons - then why hasn't that fix made it into the native core of WinEyes?

Another suggestion for that app, could have been if it had the chance for the 
user to define, which windows automatically should be opened in VirtualView. 
Then things like this, could have been automatically handled, and there would 
have been no confusions. Smile.

Thanks again,

  Hi David,

  You could try Microsoft's free anti-malware tool named Microsoft Security 
Essentials; it's entirely accessible, and easy to use.  I don't know how it 
compares in the list of anti-malware, but it seems pretty good to me.

    Subject: Malwarebyte - what to do?


    I am testing out the trial version of MalwareByte. It keeps telling me that 
some kind of malicious thing has been detected on my system, and asks me to 
choose an alternative. Problem is, there is no alternative to choose from. At 
least, none that Win-Eyes wants to inform me about. Below is a copy of the 
window I get. It keeps repeating the text twice, and that is all. Pressing the 
app-key, or right clicking on the window, has proven to be of no use either.

    Anyone have any experience, and could point me in a direction that will 
help me rid the system of whatever malware has been detected? Is this yet 
another proof of an otherwise acccesible software, that just prove useless, the 
very moment things get critical? Or, is there a workaround that I am not aware 
of?
