    May have one digit off but that the one that keep coming back,  open Quarantine and then vanishes.


    As you can imagine, its not obvious what is happening. An advanced diagnostics technique is to use "opensnoop" on the command line (Terminal) to observe what files are being opened by which applications (including our scanner).

    sudo opensnoop -ve

    Obviously I always recommend taking care whenever you run a command with sudo.
