exile360: I was reading this topic. I have Bitdefender 2019 Total Security and Malwarebytes Premium 3.7.1 (current build), running Windows 10 x64 Pro, Build 1903. I have experienced no issues. Submitted for your information. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

@Munchkin I have been running MBAM Premium with Bitdefender Total Security for years now, without any issues. Bitdefender is, as you surmised, just covering their bases, in case MBAM or BD should have some type of incompatibility issue in the future, which, of course, both companies would seek to resolve quickly. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

I have been experiencing the same issue for the last two days. Regards, -Phil

I encountered a "Can't Connect to Licence Server" upon boot on both my personal desktop and a client's desktop today. Neither computer is using a VPN or a proxy. In the case of my computer, I have Bitdefender 2019 Total Security installed, which has a VPN option that I have never activated, but that might have messed with the winsock catalogue when BDTS 2019 was installed. Interestingly, when the error message is acknowledged, and Malwarebytes is opened, all seems fine. The Premium account information is accurate. Submitted for your info. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

@gails I have been running MBAM Premium alongside Macrium Reflect (paid) for years now. There has never been any conflicts with the Macrium Image Guardian and either Malwarebytes or my Bitdefender Total Security. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

@rakeshsejwal Thank you for the clarification. It don't really welcome this behavior as a default, but the SiteLock URL is easily "whitelisted." Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

I am the owner of this website: http://www.philipacampbell.ca. This week I installed the Malwarebytes Chrome browser extension. I pay for website protection from SiteLock, and their logo appears on the bottom right of my home page. When the Malwarebytes Chrome browser extension is active, the SiteLock seal does not appear. Instead, a small picture with the words "website security" appears. When I add an exception to the Malwarebytes Chrome browser extension to allow ads and click bait on my site, the SiteLock seal appears again. It would be great if the Malwarebytes Chrome browser extension would default to permitting the display of the SiteLock seal on my home page. Thank you and have a great day. Regards, -Phil

wanderer47: Thank you for posting back. I am glad that I could help you solve the mystery! Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

wanderer47: Just a thought ... are you using Cybereason RansomFree or CryptoPrevent? Both of these programs create "bait" files to attract a ransomware attack. If you delete the "bait", such programs will simply recreate them. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

Similar problem here, just started a few minutes. I added an exception because MB was repeatedly issuing block notices.

@Vabadus The Android OS on the Samsung phone is version 4.4.2. Thank you for your continued assistance. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

@Vabadus Just an update. The feature does work, when the option is there. I found the procedure somewhat cumbersome, and after invoking the pause, at least with my smart phone, the option to pause again, after 30 minutes, did not appear. I had to reboot my phone. The option in my notifications screen came back temporarily and then disappeared again, until I went into the "Settings, Notifications" and unchecked and then checked again the "Allow Pause Notifications at which point the "Pause RTP for 30 minutes" option reappeared in the MBA notification on my notifications screen. I think that this still might be a "work in progress" or that it might be better to be able to deactivate RTP directly from within MBA. Nonetheless, I greatly appreciate the quiet backup of the applications on my phone, since I backup my phone weekly to both of my computers. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil

@TempLost Indeed you did. I found the procedure somewhat cumbersome, and after invoking the pause, at least with my smart phone, the option to pause again, after 30 minutes, did not appear.

@moo4x This topic might be of interest to you. Please scroll down. It is a two-stage process to disable protection temporarily. Before anything else, make sure that you have the latest version of Malwarebytes for Android. Step 1: Go to Settings, Notifications, and ensure that you enable the Malwarebytes RTP notification icon and also check the box to "Allow Pause Notification". Step 2: When you want to actually suspend Real-Time Protection (RTP), you have to open your smart phone notifications, and there should be an option to Pause RTP for 30 minutes. Select that, and the MBA icon should disappear and the notification itself. After 30 minutes, it will turn itself back on. I hope this helps. Have a great day. Regards, -Phil
