I already have the browser guard. Will turn off web protection for the time being. Thank you - Pani

@nikhils, @Porthos I had to zip the memory.dmp file first as the upload to wetransfer was stalling efore completion. The compressed file may be found here: https://we.tl/t-vn1NjJp6cH Thanks, Pani

It is too big to post here. How do I send it?

Also the support tool logs. mbst-grab-results.zip

A day later, I had another BSoD attributed to mwac.sys. I have attached the dmp file of the crash. I am now using Defender and Malwarebytes together after uninstalling Avast. 011821-22359-01.dmp

Thank you!

I have uninstalled Avast. When Malwarebytes is turned on, Defender seems to get turned off. How do I get both of them to turn on at the same time?

Thanks! As per that article, the solution is to turn off web protection in Malwarebytes. Is that correct? If so, what benefits do I lose?

I am uploading the original dmp files. 011621-26109-01.dmp 011521-35515-01.dmp

I run MBAM Premium v 4.3.0.98 with update package version 1.0.35809 on Windows 8.1 on one of my laptops. In the past 2-3 months I have had frequent (2-3 time a week) bsod crashes naming mwac.sys as the culprit. After some of the crashes, my real time protection gets disabled and I get a prompt to download the support tool to repair and reinstall. Over the last six hours, I have had 4 bsod crashes due to mwac.sys. Interestingly, the latest crash happened after I installed the beta update for MBAM. However, the latest crash did not disable the real time protection. I have attached the mbst-grab-results zipped logs after the most recent repair011621-26109-01.dmp and the zipped minidump files from the last two bsod events. Please advise. mbst-grab-results.zip 011621-26109-01.zip 011521-35515-01.zip

OK now, it is almost three months later. So, when is mbam pro 1.51 going to come? I left my mbam running an it is really eating up the resources and making my laptop slow as molasses. The numbers are staggering: I/O read bytes: 359,000,000 and counting I/O write bytes: 6664 Disk reads: 16,000 and counting Disk read bytes: 964,000,000 and counting Should I uninstall the current version and simply wait for the version update?

Hi, I too have a problem with mbamservice.exe keeping my hard disk running all the time and slowing down my 18-month old laptop running XP sp3. The problem started just in the last week. I am running mbam pro (1.50.1.1100). I too did the same testing described by Samuel and here are my results: I/O Read Bytes 87.9 GB! I/O Reads 236.x I/O Write Bytes 1.5 MB I/O Writes 432 These numbers are radically different from those described by Samuel on Jan 6th. So what's going on? Now, that makes at least three users with a problem! I had been very happy with mbam till now but now I am reevaluating whether I should uninstall it and wait for version 1.51 to be released. BTW, my main antivirus program is Norton Security Suite Version: 4.3.0.5. Thanks for any advice. Pani
