    What do you mean? If it is Malwarebytes, it should look like this:

    So just choose a quick scan. If it doesn't look like that, then it's not Malwarebytes.

    I chose a full scan and it gave me the choice of E as well as C and D but yes it did look like that. I could go back and do a quick scan

    Oh fair enough. Well there's no need to run a full scan, it's time wasting and the developers of Malwarebytes don't even use it. It'll take up to 2 hours for that :)

    (They really need to change how they describe it though, as everyone will pick a full scan in order to be thorough - and the only reason I know that quick scan is all you need is because I went into their web forums and read from Malwarewarebytes developers themselves.)

    Quick scan can take as short as 12 minutes, but longer under safe mode and on older computers.

    Btw I checked out the link you mention, and the site looked fine as best as I can tell. All I can think is that it might have been unlucky and served an infected ad, as there are about 3 ad banners on the page. I couldn't see anything obvious in the html, and ran it through virustotal.com which didn't find anything either.
