Stopping, Starting, Malicious Web Site Protection Won't stay on?


Recommended Posts

Not sure if this is the exact location to report and inquire about this...

 

Here's my protection log:

Will not "start" after the  9:12 Stop, Refresh...  No Malicious Web Site protection? 

Will reboot of course but the service called "MBAMProtector" does not seem present under 'services'...

 

Thanks for any suggestions or help.

For anyone still having problems with Malicious Website Protection:

 

1. Update the database (Dashboard > Update Now) ... it should update to v2014.10.14.04

2. From the system tray, exit Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

3. From the start menu (or desktop icon), restart Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

 

This should fix the problem.  If this (or any other problem remains), please create a SEPARATE ticket.  Let's close this one and move on.

That "fix" did not work for me on two different computers.  I have lost Malicious Website Protection multiple times on multiple computers.  Maybe this time was because of a bad update but I have my doubts.

On computer 1 I installed v2.0.3 over the top and that fixed it.  For now.  I fully expect for this to happen again.  And again.

UPDATE: After installing the same 2.0.3 version manually on top of already updated version, the one with the bug, the bug seems to have disapeared. As suggested, I rebooted the computer after the new instalaltion was performed and there are no more warnings... so far anyway. Keeping my fingers crossed.
