The update server appears much slower since I installed the newest version of malwarebytes. I have now timed out several times on 2 different computers. I am using the pro version (paid for) and I have found the performance significantly downgraded. It used to take 3 minutes to do a quick scan and now it takes over 8 minutes. I am using a system with the I975 extreme and 24 gigs of 1800 ms tri channel ddr3 memory. I am not sure what happened but the updates and scans have slowed down. I just did an database update and watched the process. After the update started I got the connecting to server screen which, on first attempt sat there for 6 minutes and then timed out. On second attempt the system sat for about 5 minutes and then executed the download. What has changed. A Great product. Please don't go the way of Norton and those other overbloaded, resource hogging, hardly secure products. Please!
