If someone introduced a kluge in the LibreOffice code to provide the list of
available Java virtual machines in the Advanced window, and that kluge trips
3rd-party warning systems that LO is attempting to manipulate the operating
system in a way identical to that of dangerously exploitative software, the
burden is on the LO developers to fix, not something to be foisted on
individual users to chase down exceptions in their anti-virus and anti-malware
programs, which, in the case of MWB with this particular problem, cannot be
excepted, I tried.

Subsequently, I either must live with the shut-down and ignore the LO advanced
tab altogether or uninstall MalwareBytes.

Guess which one's not going to happen.
