Malwarebytes settings


Recommended Posts

Have problems with the automatic scanning.

I can,t set any time for the scan, only daily, weekently, monthly, and I have used the setting daily.

But the malwarbytes won,t scan, I do not get a scan report like earlier.

Earlier the Malwarebytes was programmed to scan 0.5:00 that,s impossible now.

I,m not shure that malwarebytes update properly?

( Yes I have used the malwarebytes settings for automatic update every eight hour )

Therefore I have to use the manual scan every day, and then I got a scan report.

Have just reinstallated malwarebytes, but the settings are just the same as before reinstallation.

The automatically scan have not scanned the computer since this new version came, for 3 - 4 days ago.

And I,m not shure, that the automatically update work either ( Get no reports, either from automatically scans or update, but get reports with manually update and scan ), so I have to handle this manuallly.

Have reinstallated Malwarbytes 2 - 3 times, restarted, used mbam.clean.exe every time and restarted again.

I am not shure if malwarebytes works properly yet.

Have the paid version, bought it because I want automatic scans and update with settings that works.

Feel I have less than that now :) , and if this goes on, with manually updates and scans with paid version ), I rather use Superantispyware.

Have a lot of problems for a couple of months ago with malwarebytes, with updates, reinstallations and so on.

Dropped AVG down in the sewer, when they updated from version 7.5 to 8.0 because lots of problems ( couldn,t installate the 8.0 version ) , and bought Avira Premium.

Maybe I have to use another malware program, I can not say that I miss AVG.
