  1. Advancedseup Thanks for the help and advice. -Much appreciated. Also interested to hear that work is in hand to improve speed. Good news.. -Certain other mods here seem unwilling to accept that 1.45 scan times could possibly be longer than before... As a long time Malwarebytes user, I think that apart from it's effectiveness, the speed of scans is of vital importance, especially if you hope that users of the freeware will be impressed and go on to purchase the pro version.
  2. My mum has been using her PC poking about online for about 4 hrs a day for years without any malware probs. I'd be interested to know which sites your mum has been visiting to end up with:
  3. AdvancedSetup Ok. I have carried out all your instructions, and I have run another quick scan as a test. Mbam hit 100% for the first part of the scan, then dropped lower. But overall, the scan progressed slower than with the previous (1.44) version- Comparing the logs, scan time was more than 11 mins compared to around 8 mins for the last scan with 1.44 a few days ago. This is an annoyance rather than a problem, -I will just have to take more time over my cup of coffee while waiting for a scan to complete.
  4. Advancedsetup Thanks for the advice. I don't think I need to do this because there is no real problem with version 1.45 other than CPU usage sometimes hitting 100%, which is slowing down total time taken for a quick scan. P.S. I'm still hoping to get an answer to the "what is full scan there for?" question....
  5. Shaduf Interested to read this. This is what is slowing down my scans too. mbam process seems to be asking my CPU to do things it can't do fast enough.
  6. Ok. Thanks for trying. P.S. My original (slow 'quick scan') problem is being caused by the new MBAM hitting 100% processor use during the scan....
  7. Still confused! From what you say, full scan is of no real use in removing malware. So why is it included, and even listed as a key feature?
  8. I'm still confused. If this scan is not needed to detect malware, what is it used for?
  9. On my system it is the quick scan which is slower. I am confused by the advice from TeMerc when the "
  10. Hmmm. Nice words, but this thread was started because "quick" scans using the new improved 1.45 version take LONGER... ??
  11. "It took 2 hours, 21 min, 41 sec." JerryM - Is your scan now lasting twice as long as before the 1.45 update?? My scans are taking much longer too.
  12. I came to this site to find out why the scan time is so much longer for the new version. Thanks for the information. Is there any chance that future versions will be re-coded and optimized to for faster scan times?
