Yep Sirs, and/or Madams, I am resembling the above remarks.

I also run micro-security essentials and ZA(free). Windows XP sp3 & FF bowser (have ie8, but never use it)

I don't activate MB except on occasion, just to run a check.

T'was fine until this recent update.

Seen the clean proggie and used that, thinking it would resolve the issue. Worked fine updateing and all UNTIL, I enabled protection module. Then she froze up tighter then a welldiggers arse in Idaho

Should I disable ZA and try that?

Thanks

I am also having a similar problem after updating to 1.60. I have windows xp sp3 installed and I run Microsoft Security Essentials. When I rebooted after installation, MBAM crashes and prompts me to send an error report. For what its worth, below is the error report details it would like to send.

szAppName : mbamservice.exe szAppVer : 1.60.0.25
szModName : mbamcore.dll szModVer : 1.60.0.52 offset : 00060ae0

Sorry for all the posting. I should have been more clear. I had not tried to clean/re-install. I just did and it seems to be working fine now. Hopefully the problem is fixed.

I too am running WIn. xp Pro sp3 with Avast 6 free, Zone Alarm and Malwarebytes anti - malware and after the 12/27 update my computer will not work. When I reboot my mouse does not work - I can't do anything with the keyboard - the system freezes and I must do a hard reboot. I then went to safe mode and uninstalled Malwarebytes. Now I don't have a malware program that works. I paid for this and need it to work. You guys need to help us out here - it's your new version --too many people have the exact some problem with this update. Please help ASAP.

I am running Windows XP SP3, Malwarebytes Pro, Microsoft Security Essentials, and PrivateFirewall. When Windows starts it freezes. The keyboard and mouse do not work. I have to do a hard boot. I went into safe mode, disabled the PrivateFirewall, and now everything works. Everything was working fine until the last Malwarebytes update. There must be some conflict between Malwarebytes and certain firewalls. I am now using Windows XP firewall which works fine but is not a very good firewall. I want to go back to my other firewall. Please fix this issue.

Alright, I tried putting Mbam in security essentials, and vicey versey in Mbam and enabling protection module....Freeze!

Then, I rebooted into safemode and deleted Mbam. Rebooted into normal and ran that "clean" proggie.

Then, I tried d'loading a fresh copy of Mbam to which I got most of it, and it just stopped...OK?, So, I deleted that and tried again and got even less......

Am assuming you pulled the current D'load to address these issues?

But, I dunno, I be just a dumb truckdriver in illinois.....

And probably lots 'o people like me with the same problem, just nodding their heads, but not bothering to post about it - or not understanding enough about the issue to post about it. Just waiting for a fix. Or some kinda response. Hello.

[allendew]

I had problems with version 1.6 upgrade on all my XP with SP3 computers. Get the popup message that update was available. Clicked to upgrade to 1.6. Had to reboot computer. MBAM reported failure on startup and offered to send report to Microsoft. Rebooted computer with same error at startup of MBAM.

Looked into MB Forum and saw that a CLEAN uninstall of MBAM was needed. Downloaded the MBAB-Clean software and ran that software. Rebooted computer. Downloaded the version 1.6 from MB web site. Installed version 1.6. MBAM started normally and updated the definitions from 12-24 to 12-28. No problems and everything appears to be normal again.

Something in the MBAM-Clean software takes care of the problem. I used this on a dozen different XP-SP3 computers, and version 1.6 now works on all of them.

Please post - we need to get these guys working - let's put the pressure on. Hi!

[LDTate]

Please do the following to see if it resolves the issue: Post back and let us know please

• Download and run mbam-clean.exe from here
  
• It will ask to restart your computer, please allow it to do so very important
  
• After the computer restarts, temporarily disable your Anti-Virus and install the latest version of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware from here
  
  • Note: You will need to reactivate the program using the license you were sent via email if using the Pro version
    
  • Launch the program and set the Protection and Registration. Then go to the UPDATE tab if not done during installation and check for updates.
    Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask and we'll explain how to do it.

Sounds good. I think I'll give it a try although I don't feel like screwing with a computer all day today but you seem pretty sure. What anti -virus and firewall are you using?

[LDTate]

Two computers are never the same.
During BETA testing no one reported these issues.

I'm using MSE AV and Windows Firewall on this box, but trying to duplicate these issues on another box also without running Clean-Uninstall first.

[Pollyanna]

Thank you allendew. I am running XP/SP3 with free Malwarebytes and Microsoft Security Essentials. After (required)update of Malwarebytes today, it reported failure.

The Clean uninstall apparently did the trick. I downloaded MBAM again and chose the free 14 day trial and all appears to be good now. Thanks again.

Similar problem, installed version 1.60.0.1800 and it said the service ran into a problem and had to terminate. Efforts to reinstall ended up in a frozen computer requiring a hard restart. Went back to version 1.51.1.1800 until you guys figure out what you did wrong. Wasted about an hour on this mistake of an update. I'm using Outpost Security Suite 7.1 Free and Spybot S&D version 1.6.2 in a Windows XP Professional 2002 SP3 system. All I got from the Event Log was :

Faulting application mbamservice.exe, version 1.60.0.25, faulting module mbamcore.dll, version 1.60.0.52, fault address 0x00060ae0.
