Malwarebytes deletes excel.exe
Hello all - I use malwarebytes and it is a terrific program, but every time I run a scan it deletes excel.exe. I have to restore it back so that the program returns and is useful. Any fix for this? Windows XP Professional. Microsoft Office 2007.
Thank you.
Thank you.

I suspect that Excel.exe is infected - try replacing it with excel.exe from another source

If Excel is indeed infected, it may be pertinent for you to use a tool such as NOD32 online scanner to remove the infection differently. Note: Many antivirus have different removal procedures.

Please follow the advice from younghv and post the excel.exe to website. You may also try few other website and submit the excel.exe to check if it is infected.
