  1. Haider Looks like you are up to date. My current database information: Date: 5/6/2010 Database version: 4073 Fingerprints loaded: 230554 In post #12 Exclude Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware's Files and Folders From Other Active Security Programs: For Windows XP: * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbam.exe * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbamgui.exe * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbamservice.exe * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\zlib.dll * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbam.dll * C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\mbamext.dll * C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\rules.ref * C:\Windows\System32\drivers\mbam.sys * C:\Windows\System32\drivers\mbamswissarmy.sys
  2. First, my anti-virus is Avast 5.0.507 and my firewall is Sygate Personal Firewall and my OS is Windows 2000 Second, as I posted I am not getting any errors now so why do you think running chkdsk would help? My computer is running fine the only problem that I did have was with MBAM after the version 1.46 update, I had no problems with MBAM version 1.45 Third, nothing is blocking MBAM, it has full access to the internet, I checked and rechecked nothing is blocking it, it connected to the update sever and would download around 40% of the update and then would drop down to 0% and then give the errors.

  3. noknojon Thanks, I'm just waiting now for newer database updates to see if I will get any errors, that is where I was getting my errors at after updating to version 1.46 B Trevathan
  4. gtyhfy It was working but then it started giving errors again so I uninstalled and ran the MBAM cleanup utility and reinstalled, shutting down in between each time and on the first run I got one error I think it was MBAM_ERROR_LOAD_DATABASE (0, 5) but I think this was because I chose not to update it before the first start of the program, after the program started I updated it with no errors and so far I haven't got any errors. When I now check for updates it says "You have the latest database version." I guess only more time will tell. Thanks for the help, B Trevathan Current database information: Date: 5/5/2010 Database version: 4070 Fingerprints loaded: 230229
  5. Malware can come from lots of places, used to be you would have to click on a link in an email but now all you have to do is visit a site, malware can come from ads. Malware can download by itself you don't have to click on anything to OK it for download. I recommend not using IE but using Firefox as your web browser, don't uninstall IE because you can have more than one browser, but make Firefox your default browser. Update MBAM and run a full scan, update Trend Micro and run a full scan. I recommend you also download SuperAntiSpyware, you can have more than one anti-spyware program but you can only have one anti-virus program running. Lots of anti-malware programs have options that let you do more detailed scans you may want to check your programs options and adjust them so they will scan in more detail. If you are still worried you may want to use something called a live CD, what you do is you use the live CD to boot your computer and it will scan your drive for malware and it will tell you if you have any malware that is hiding from windows like a rootkit. I use Dr. Web live CD and Avira Rescue CD Note: On the Avira rescue CD you may have to select the British flag in the bottom left corner.
  6. gtyhfy I am not getting any errors after that last database update, when I click "Check for Updates" it just says "You have the latest database version" I think I now need to wait until a new database version comes out and see if I get any errors then. Thanks for the help, B Trevathan
  7. Update/Edit: I forgot to mention that it was connecting to the update server and it was trying to download the update and it would get to about 40% and then stop and go back to 0% and try again until I would get an error. Nothing seems to be blocking it, I tried to update it again an it went all the way to 100% and then gave me this error: Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware An error has occurred. Please report this error to our support team. MBAM_ERROR_LOAD_DATABASE (0, 5) When I clicked on "OK" the program closed so I reopened it and clicked "Check for Updates" and it said "You have the latest database version" I am being to think there are a few bugs in this version. My current databse information has changed after the database update so the update must have installed, here is what it says that my current database information is: Date: 5/4/2010 Database version:4067 Fingerprints loaded: 230010
  8. I just updated from version 1.45 to version 1.46, it asked me twice to install the version 1.46 update, after the update finished installing I then tried to update the database and I got this error: Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware An error has occurred. Please report this error to our support team. MBAM_ERROR_UPDATING (12002, 0, WinHttpQueryDataAvailable) So I was thinking that I just had a bad update so I uninstalled version 1.46 and installed version 1.44 and then updated it to version 1.46 and then when I tried updating the database I get this error: Malwarebyte's Anti-Malware An error has occurred. Please report this error to our support team. MBAM_ERROR_UPDATING (12007, 0, WinHttpSendRequest) It is updating to version 1.46 fine and running fine, the scans find no malware, but when I try to update is when I get the errors. I've been reading the forum and it seems a lot of people are having trouble with version 1.46 and its updates, is there anything that I can do to correct this problem other than way for version 1.47 to come out? I have been using MBAM for a while and I think it's a great program it does a great job at keeping my computer malware free.
