  1. This is exactly what I experienced this morning. 1. woke up PC (win 8.1, 16 GB RAM) 2. had it sit running only notepad++ 3. Windows warns about low memory, wants to close notepad++ ?!?! 4. After restart and opening Task Manager I can literally watch how the Malwarebytes Service takes all the RAM available, 500 MB, 700 MB (this is where it turns off real time web protection), 1100, 2000, 3000, 4000, 8000, etc. 5. To my horror I also saw my windows explorer taking up 8GB RAM, when I toggled MB services off it calmed down. 6. MB tells me that the license server can't be reached. 7. When trying to scan it is stuck in "searching for updates..." A clean re-install resulted in the same behavior.
  2. Unchanged, Dashboard says "Not fully protected" and "Malicious Website Protection disabled" although it's checked in settings. Reinstall Malwarebytes?
  3. Hi TwinHeadedEagle, Many thanks for helping me! I ran the fix, looked at the result and I'm amazed. I thought I kept the house clean but it doesn't look like it. But it's not compromised, or is it? Fixlog.txt
