Malwarebytes v4 was a little bit heavy, that's right, but the new Malwarebytes v5 is very, very, very lightweight (that's why hardware acceleration has been removed). So, please, YOU do not spread lies without knowing the real developement path behind this software, only because you need a justification to continue using a discontinued version of MBAM, in order to keep cracking it with the keygen and not paying for a legal subscription

People who use a pirated lifetime license, period. I know it because I often surf pirate forums and websites (I'm very curious about what happens "on the other side", too) and some of them still use v1.75 of MBAM and v1.70 of MBAM Corporate thanks to the notorious keygen, used for years by those ones who cracked them, since it still works on these two versions. By doing so, they prefer to ignore the fact that these MBAM versions are both obsolete, because they refuse to pay for a subscription 🤷‍♂️

Allow me to correct just one thing you wrote, Porthos: the right link to download MB5 offline installer is: https://downloads.malwarebytes.com/file/mb5_offline The one you reported downloads the online version of MB5

Thank you very much, to both of you 🙏 However, without opening a long discussion about piracy, because it's a very complicated topic, with many ethical and unethical facets (for example, here in the EU there is the Piracy Party, which is composed by pirates, so it's unethical, but these pirates have fought and are fighting a lot of ethical battles, such as the one against Google and the potential privacy violation caused by its recent ban of the adblockers on YouTube), what I wanted to know is: Is this Malwarebytes behaviour (provoke BSODs after a long series of warning popups) normal or is it a bug? Can't Malwarebytes just inform me all the times it wants about the threats that it has blocked without crashing Windows?

If Malwarebytes Web Protection informs that it's blocking trojans, spyware, etc., which are trying to access my laptop while I'm using Nicotine+, should I set those entries as exclusions? I don't know if it's safe to do so or not

Exactly, but, differently from eMule and qBittorrent, which trigger MB Web Protection without BSODs, the use of Nicotine+ causes them a lot of times and, very often, just after starting a simple research

Hello everybody 👋 As the title says, I'm experiencing BSODs while using Nicotine+, a graphical client of Soulseek, and I know for sure that they're caused by Malwarebytes. Why? Because, after I start looking for artists and/or albums there, MB keeps showing a long series of warning popups that, after a while, make freeze my laptop, 'till it crashes with a BSOD (I can't remember the exact code, maybe "Watchdog violation" or something similar) and this was a problem which occurred even with MB4. However, it doesn't happen with all the results, but just with some artists/albums, so it's a very unpredictable event. What can I do to help you fixing this issue? Thank you very much in advance 🙏

Sometimes the block starts immediately after logging in, but in these last few days it does not (at least, not for me with Malwarebytes Browser Guard and AdGuard for Windows on)

And, as I've already told you, Google blocks YouTube videos only if you're logged in with a Google/YouTube account. indeed, if I logged out from YT, I would watch all videos without any blocks, even if my adblockers are all on. Tha's why here in Europe some members of the European Parliament have asked the EU Commission to investigate on Google's conduct, because blocking the video reproduction basing on the user account is a potential privacy violation. Now we're waiting for a verdict

I can confirm everything you said 👍 However, in my case, I just need to allow googleads.g.doubleclick.net, in order to unlock all YT videos 🤷‍♂️ Perhaps, it is due to the presence of AdGuard for Windows on my laptop (its team, together with the one of uBlock Origin, has implemented a way to bypass all the YT blocks some weeks ago) 🤔

Oh, well, that option was already enabled on MB4 and it is enabled now in MB5. So, what was hardware acceleration doing exactly in MB4? 🤔

Hello everybody 👋 I'm a Malwarebytes Premium user and yesterday I've updated my MB4 to the new and stable MB5 release through the link offered by @msherwood in this area of the forum (Link to the discussion: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/304592-has-malwarebytes-50-been-officially-released/?do=findComment&comment=1600288). After the installation, I've noticed that the entire "View" section has gone. Consequently, two features available 'till MB4 have disappeared. I'm talking about: 1) Theme: I'm using Auto Dark Mode on my laptop, which is a tool that offers the possibility to automatically move from the Light to the Dark mode, basing on the sunrise and the sunset or on the personal user preferences. Malwarebytes 4 was always adapting to my choices set in ADM, while now, on MB5, I can only decide if keeping the Light and the Dark mode always on or off; 2) Hardware acceleration: This was a useful feature, since it fastened a lot all the scans I performed. My question now is: will these two features be implemented again in the future or have they been both deprecated? Thank you very much in advance and have a nice day ☺️

Of course, because you can't follow, comment or like anyone without a G/YT account

And this is the reason why you're not seeing any block warnings: the anti-adblocker implemented by YT links to your Google/YouTube account. Indeed, as a temporary workaround, I'm watching YT videos on Firefox and Edge, because I'm not logged in with my Google account there
