    Question about the scan logs

    in Malwarebytes for Windows Support Forum

    Posted

    That has to do with the language settings for the SYSTEM account as well. That being said, you can override the language settings for all user accounts on the computer (including the SYSTEM account) by setting the Language setting under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware to the language you desire. You'll need to navigate to that key and create a STRING value and name it Language and set the value data to the name of the language file that you use, which in this case would be french.lng.

    Note that if you are running a 64 bit Windows version that the key will be HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Wow6432Node\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.

    Excellent : the a/m procedure (for 64 bit Windows, in my case) worked perfectly; after changing the registry, I ran a "one time" scheduled test scan and the results log is now also displayed in french ! :)

    Thanks a lot for your time & helpful assistance in this matter.

    Question about the scan logs

    The protection module being listed as disabled when a scan is executed silently from the SYSTEM account is a known issue and we plan to have that fixed in a future release.

    Thanks for this information; and why the language differences in scan logs between manual & scheduled (silent) scan results (see my first post above) ?

    Thanks for your assistance ! :)

    Question about the scan logs

    Hi,

    I'm using the latest pro version 1.60.1.1000 on Win7 Pro x64 and have the language set to french.

    However, when I consult the scan logs, there seems to be a problem :

    - all the logs related to scheduled scans are displayed in english and the line "protection" always says : disabled

    - all the logs related to manual scans are (correctly) displayed in french and the line "protection" always says : enabled.

    Thanks for your help & suggestions ! :)

    Animation during scans

    in Malwarebytes for Windows

    Posted

    Hello,

    It would be nice to have an animation in the systray icon during scans (in the same way most other security programs do it).

    This would be helpful to have a direct information that the (silent) scheduled scans are really happening and would avoid to have to go into MBAM's logs to have such confirmation ... :)

    Hi tito335,

    Per casuality, I've just read your posts on the Secunia website (PSI) <_< and your concern about iTunes & Quick Time.

    As soon as you install iTunes, it also installs the free version of Quick Time. This because iTunes needs QT to work properly (if you deinstall QT seperately, iTunes won't start correctly).

    Hope this helps ...

    Java 6U26 to Java 7?

    in General Windows PC Help

    Posted

    Hi daledoc1,

    Glad I could clarify things a little bit. I'm just a home user as you are and tried here to summarize in the best way my readings from several sources.

    I'll also wait until the Java developers will release an update of version 7, in other words until the official download page will propose, as usual, only one version (as for the moment version 7 is still proposed together with version 6U26).

    Java 6U26 to Java 7?

    in General Windows PC Help

    Posted

    Hi daledoc1,

    As far as I can understand , version 7 is a major platform change to replace version 6 ; it is supposedly fairly much compatible with stuff made by/using 6 , but is not yet being pushed out by Oracle/Sun in a big way as a replacement per se for simple home users (such as I).

    Java7 apparently was released too early with a few bugs that can cause crashes of the java engine; it's expected to be fixed in the next release (due to many complaints the priority of the bug fix changed from low to high). Mainly due to problems with my security program (OSS Pro 7.5.1), I've reverted to the current recommended release which remains java6 ie. 1.6.0_26b3. That version works fine in both x64 and x86. And as a moderator on the Outpost forum mentioned : "Never use a .0 of anything! :rolleyes:

    From what I read in another forum, Oracle should be ready to distribute a debugged Java 7 JRE (v. 1.7.0.x) to end users within the next week or so.

    Hereby some interesting comments and experiences about version 7 (check the "comments" tab if you go there , ref OOo ... ;) )

    Now, to your questions :

    1) comments above have, I think, quite well answered this point

    2) you only have to install JRE (as JDK, which contains JRE, is meant for developers)

    3) download version(s)7 (x86 and x64versions in case you're using x86 and x64 browsers); as in this case (= major update), usual installation "over the top" won't work, uninstall version(s) 6 completely, reboot and install version(s)7

    4) yes, it does

    5) yes, there are still problems / bugs with version 7 .

    6) Java is not essential for your computer and can be "removed" without any consequences to your actual system . Some programmes and websites are dependent on Java; if a programme / website needs it, you will likely be prompted to install it , or if one stops working , it should be apparent that it is because you do not have Java . So, it's really up to you.

    'Hope all this helps ... :)
