Just wondering if malewarebytes has a link to get the updated database as the one on major geeks is old. I am on Dailup so I get it on another computer and transfer it to my home computer

If one has been using the beta, should a clean install be done for the new version?

Uninstall > re-boot- > mbam-clean > then install newest version?

MountainTree,

Yes, but you added another step.

MBAMClean.exe -> reboot -> Install New Version

Thank you for participating in the beta :)

Mainard,

Excellent, so I only have to run mbam clean, and not un-install it first, good to know ;)

You're welcome, I like to do what I can :)

Yes with mbamclean it uninstalls MBAM and cleans up all of MBAM's files and registry in one shot instead of having to do two steps we made it one. :)

Installed without a hitch! Added exclusion for my AV & re-added Mbam exclusions into my AV. Running lighter so far!

I wonder why you have posted the large image of this software that appears to be virtually unknown and untested by leading reviewers?

@WhiskeyTango73:

Without shame nor regret, I have downloaded and will plagiarize your CS2011. :o

I hope it doesn't need an English to English translation file.

Have your lawyers call my lawyers. :)

Thank you!

I don't know if this is a bug or not but I will mention it.....

I installed the PRO version yesterday for a customer. Registered it and configured the auto scan at 7:30 PM. It was about 7:10 PM when I installed it, I was making sure the computer was not infected as their email account had been hijacked. I started a manual scan and while it was scanning, the scheduled 7:30 PM scan started as well, so now I had two scans going at the same time.

Is Malwarebytes suppose to check to see if a scan is already in progress?

@Firefox,

As this is the NEWS forum you should really post support questions in the General forum.

Though not optimal in some cases the scanner does support multi-tasking which does allow the scanner to run multiple scans, typically under another user account {scheduled scan is the system account not yours} so I would not necessarily recommend it but I don't think there is an issue as you described it happening. Both should have completed with quite similar results.

Is there an expected release date for Klingon translation? :P

With the release of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.51, there have been a number of exciting new features. One of these new features is the introduction of our FREE 14-day trial of the PRO version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware.

Many of our users have asked for the ability to try out the functionality of our PRO version and we have listened to this feedback. We have included this trial so our users can get a taste of what the PRO version offers and the benefits of using it to help keep your computer protected in real-time from today’s malware. The free trial lasts 14 days, and it gives you the full functionality of the PRO version such as real-time active malware protection, heuristics-based protection against new zero day malware, malicious website protection, blazing fast flash scans, automatic priority updates and scheduled scanning. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO is a one-touch protection machine! – set it and forget it, and let Malwarebytes keep you clean and safe.

There have been some questions over what happens when the trial version expires -- will users be forced to pay to upgrade or be unable to use the program? This is not the case at all. Once the trial period ends, the program will simply revert back to the Free version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and you will be able to use it to scan your computer for malware and clean up the latest infections as you have before. After expiration, you will have the option to purchase the PRO version or end the trial. If you decide to end the trial, you will not be bombarded by popups to upgrade after the trial period expires.

To use the Free trial, simply click on the “Start Trial” button once Malwarebytes Anti-Malware starts, if you have not done so already. If you are having issues with the trial, please contact support@malwarebytes.org and our team will be happy to assist you.

I hope this helps to clear up any confusion over the new Free trial of our PRO version, but if you have any questions, please feel free to contact us. If you enjoyed the PRO version, and the protection features it has to help keep your computer safe in real-time, please consider upgrading to Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO!

Installed on Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1, both 32bit...

Working Flawlessly, Thank you very much for this Update,
now MBAM is lite in my system than previous version, no system lags with NOD32 Home Edition...
I hope there's an update to make it load more faster and litier after system loads from bootup

Question, I updated but was in a hurry and as I used AVG 9 I needed to check whether there is a conflict between the two so I didn't click for the trial, is that my opportunity over? I cannot see the offer again under any of the tabs.

Thanks.
