BFlat Posted September 19, 2010 ID:315474 Share Posted September 19, 2010 Thanks for the directions. I did as you directed. You wrote very clear instructions, BUT, after trying to update the dataset, I get a Mbyte error message that says: An error occurred. Please report the following error code to the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware support team. Error code: 732(12029, 0) There's some digital storm on my machine that began yesterday by shutting down Avira and then won't let Malwarebytes update, so am keeping it offline. I ran a full scan from a very old update. It found two items, a trojan and an ad and quarantined them. But the above prevents updating. Since this machine I am writing you on is current with its updates and apparently healthy, can I move the dataset by flash drive from this machine to the infected one and then run Malwarebytes with the current dataset? If so what's the name of the file and where do I find it? Is it Rules.Ref Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
