MBAM Quick Scan has detected my desktop wallpaper as a hijack, but I'm not convinced. I've attached logfiles of the scans this morning from the Webshots and non-Webshots desktop settings, and I was hoping someone more experienced than myself could help interpret this.

I have a .jpg that I shot set as my desktop wallpaper, and I use the same picture whether I have it just set through Desktop Properties or using the Webshots Desktop and Tray Application.

Note: MBAM updated to a new version a couple of days ago. I've always used the Webshots Desktop and never had issues.

Logfile A is the first scan, with Webshots Desktop and Tray App enabled. B (immediately re-scanned) and C (closed/re-launched MBAM) are the Windows desktop with the Webshots tray app still active, and D is the Windows desktop with the Webshots tray app closed. Logfile E is when I put Webshots back on.

I'm so confused.

These are indeed false positives and the developers of MBAM have already been informed. These will be corrected in the next update.

You weren't kidding : this is already fixed.

Now THAT'S quality.

Yes, the developers do act quickly to correct false positives.
