I received, on 5/9/17, a pop-up that the above patch was needed. Malwarebytes Premium would not allow installation, so I did not install. Today I noticed that prior downloads of updates came from addresses ending in ".net". The rejected patch was from an address ending in ".com". Should I use this as a flag for future purported updates ?
