Hello!

I'm not sure if this has been already reported on the forums, but MalwareGeek was saying how if you set a password protection on MBAM, you can't go access the tabs "Protection", "Ignore", and "Settings"

However you can easily disable the protection when you right click on MBAM on the system tray.

So if a parent sets a password, and the child is trying to download a game that is detected as a trojan by MBAM, the kid can just disable the protection and let an infection through without the password.

Sorry if someone already reported this on the forums.

Thanks.

I think computer viruses should count as life.

I think it says something about human nature that the only form of life we have created so far is purely destructive.
