Windows 10: Malwarebytes 3.0

Hi All , I updated to Malwarebytes 3.0 and every time I start the PC a notification appears and says Real-Time Protection layers turned off but they are all on.

:)

 

Can a malware get into a PC just by downloading something malicious?How to use Malwarebytes 3.0 as a stand-alone scanner and is Free Download Manager safe?

Nik...you downloaded the new Malwarebytes 3.0 version. You can check all those boxes if you want to use it's real-time protection for a trial period of 14 days. If you do not want to use those features, then leave them unchecked. After the trial expires,
you can continue to use Malwarebytes as a stand-alone scanner.

People are having various problems with MBAM 3. I saw the same thing for the time I left it running. For now we'll just have to wait for any upgrades/tweaks they make to fine tune it.

 

Report it to their forum.

 

Thanks guys for the reply *Smile I already post a comment on their post on Facebook but I think I will post on their forums too now

 

It's listed on their forum as a known issue. Malwarebytes 3.0 - Known Issues - Malwarebytes 3.0 - Malwarebytes Forums

I have the same issue on startup.

 

I noticed that it caused my Emsisoft to turn off its real time protection.........Think I will leave it alone until a few more updates....

 

One odd behavior I have noted, it seems to interact with NoScript somehow. A couple of sites I normally go to would not load because NoScript blocked them with ABE. When MBAM is turned off, those pages load fine.

What's ABE?

 

Same here Steve, also on any reboot too.

 

I'm running 2.2.1.1043......so how does one go about updating it. I cant find how to check my version for updates?

 

Download it from their website. But uninstall the old one first.

 

With all the problems, I'm glad I don't have it. I did a clean install of my Preview version and tried to install my existing 2.xx version and Windows told me it was not compatible. I checked the Malwarebytes site and learned I need the 3.0 version (Beta) but I didn't find where to download it. For now, I'll run without it or use some other Malware program with the Preview version.

 

Thanks....I figure that I had to do that.....I just did.

 

You won't know until you've tried it The beta has finished and its been released everywhere now.
