  1. I can confirm, I was experiencing this issue also. It's good to know it is being addressed.
  2. @PorthosHello, I just attempted it, but no luck. The other PC I used Adwcleaner on doesn't have Kaspersky installed. I turned off cloud temporarily and ran a scan and the result was the same definition but local. Maybe the definitions on this application aren't updated as frequently.
  3. Anyone? I should mention that I tried this on another PC and it also had an earlier Cloud database of 2022-10-10.1, so it might be something on your side.
  4. Greetings, Even though I have Malwarebytes Premium I run a monthly scan using Adwcleaner. However, I just checked the log and realised the cloud database is from last year. Can you determine why it might not be updating properly? I've attached the required files. AdwCleaner[S00].txt AdwCleaner_Debug.log mbst-grab-results.zip
  5. Agreed. I wonder how many people will move to Firefox because of this. Thank you for the reply.
  6. Greetings, I'm aware the Malwarebytes developers will support the upcoming Manifest V3 for Browser Guard, as has been mentioned in the forum. My question is whether the upcoming changes will have a significant deleterious effect on how the extension protects the user. I know ad-blockers have been limited in how they function but was wondering if this effects Browser Guard knowing it is more security inclined as opposed to a conventional ad-blocker.
  7. I can confirm I'm having this delayed download pop up too on Edge Version 97.0.1072.69 with Malwarebytes Browser Guard enabled. Disabling MBG makes the download pop up work again without any delay. I do have full confidence in Malwarebytes to rectify this though, as they're usually very good with this.
  8. @gonzo Hi, Just attempted that but the problem still persists. Update: I've uninstalled and re-installed the extension and it seems to be working okay at the moment. I'm wondering whether it's because I reinstalled the OS the other day and Edge Sync was on, so my Malwarebytes extension was automatically installed as opposed to me manually going to the Store and installing it. Maybe something went wrong during that automatic install process.
  9. Hi, I'm using Microsoft Edge Chromium and have Malwarebytes Browser Guard, which had to be installed via the Chrome Store as it isn't listed in the Edge store. I have been using it for ages, but lately every time I click on the badge I get the Introduction "Welcome to Malwarebytes Browser Guard" screen. I have to click the Let's go button in order for the default page information screen to be displayed. When I click away so that the badge closes and then re-click the badge, up pops the Welcome screen again. This has only started happening recently. Any ideas on how I can rectify this slightly annoying behaviour?
  10. Can confirm I am receiving the detection here too.
  11. I thought it might, I just wasn't totally sure. Thanks for the explanation, exile360.
  12. I don't generally have Java Runtime Environment installed as I don't have any applications that require it, but recently I was thinking about downloading a program that requires JRE to be installed for it to run. Now, I know Anti-Exploit covers the Java Runtime, would I be correct in assuming then that by doing so MBAM also covers the applications that need JRE to run, thus protecting them from exploits?
  13. I recently downloaded a safe portable program by Cheathappens called Cosmos that I put in my Portable folder for which I then created a desktop shortcut that I named Cosmos. Unfortunately Adwcleaner has detected the .lnk file as PUP.Optional.CosmosSystemCare which it isn't connected to. Obviously the PUP software Cosmos System Care creates a shortcut named Cosmos also, hence the detection. Now, I know I can simply add the legitimate .lnk file to exclusions, but I'm wondering if this would then prevent Adwcleaner from detecting a genuine Cosmos System Care shortcut if it ever happened to infect my PC in the future. So, in short, does adding a file to an exclusion just prevent that one file from being detected or does it block all files that happen to be named Cosmos? Thanks.
