Multiple Security Threats Found

[ChaosDark]

My Security keeps complaining about Security threats but everything seems to be in working order. Have done multiple full computer scans and no kind of malware showed up. Anyone know what is up?

Welcome
If you did not scan with malwarebytes do so now. Make a full scan and be sure it is updated.
If you AV comes up with threats, it should, also, identify, and possibly remove.

I have before. I do not know what it is complaining about especially since the computer just powers off after I get the warning.

>>>>My Security keeps complaining about Security threats

Would like to see the screenshot of that " complaint ".
What exactly did it say ?

That is going to be hard. A small balloon popup from the Security Center in the notification tray gives that warning and then the system powers off. DO not remember it exactly but it is like "Mutiple Security Threats Detected. Click on this balloon for more details"

What if you went to safe mode with networking ?
What would happen then ?

Have not tried that yet. This always happens to me whenever I got this one certain game up (Not sure if it will work in Safe Mode as it requires graphics and sound drivers)

I am not suggesing that you play that game ( which you did not mention until now ) in safe mode.
I am asking you what will happen if you logon to safe mode ?
Any popup warnings etc ?

EDIT: Malwarebytes finished the scan. 0 malicious items found. Must be something else. Could it be I disabled Windows Defender and took it off the Startup List via msconfig.

Well that is the only time I ever see it pop up. Otherwise I almost never see it.

1.AS advised by Richc46, run Malwarebytes to make sure your machine is clean.

2.>>Well that is the only time I ever see it pop up.
Assuming you meant when you played that game ?

If running that " game " was the only time you saw the warning, then perhaps, you won't play that game anymore.

I been playing it for years actually on and off. No problems until recently with this. I have no idea what may be the backbone with this?

PS: Would Disabling Windows Defender have any involvement in this problem?

>>>>Would Disabling Windows Defender have any involvement in this problem?
I have no anser for that question.

1. If your Comodo includes spyware protection, then it is said that you don't need Windows Defender.
What I don't know is whether Comodo will shut down Windows Defender automatically like some AVs do.

2. It won't hurt if you enable Windows Defender and see what will happen.

I am at the end of my limited know-how.

Going to try to disabling Security Center and then put on an overheating protection tool (Took a quick look through the Overclock section) to see if overheating has any involvement.
