If you play movies or music from your computer through your Xbox 360 you have the computer setup as an XBOX extender.  Over time as you add new content to your computer the Xbox 360 may not update with the new content. To fix this you simply log into your computer in question and bring up Windows Media Player and select Oragnize > Apply Media Information Changes.

Once you have done that your computer (Xbox 360 Extender) will begin to update the library.

Once the progress bar hits 100% your media will be updated and you should see all of it on your Xbox 360.

For more info on setting the Extender up, here are the instructions from the Xbox 360 web page.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a great program for anti-malware protection.  It boasts the ability to thoroughly remove even the most advanced malware using a built in protection monitor that blocks malicious processes before they even start.  With the latest version they included an IP blocking feature that will prevent a user from visiting a potentially dangerous website.  Also, if a Trojan is executed on an infected system and it tries to download a payload, that payload will be BLOCKED by the IP blocking module.

However, the popups get annoying after a while and there is no built in feature to block the balloon notifications.  Here’s a fix to hide the annoying popup balloon notifications.  Right click on the start button and do properties. Make sure you’re on the task bar tab and next to “hide inactive icons” click the customize button. Then find Malwarebytes program and do  “always hide”.  This will prevent the notifications from popping up and annoying you but will still allow the program to run in the background.
