Thanks for the incredibly fast reply! I understand that the number of temporary files varies. However, the difference is high, by 6,000 or more files. Thats why I was wondering. And manually I havent cleared the temporary files section in the last 3 weeks. Also I went throught my logs of the last months (I did a scan about every month, always however with version 1.46) and the number of files checked always slightly increased, never decreased to such an extent as it did yesterday. Perhaps I worry too much, but I hope it's alright to bother you guys. Thanks again!

Hello Firefox, thanks for your reply. I appreciate that the new version reduces scan time due to increased performance of MBAM. But just to clarify: this also means that lesser files are searched or maybe the counting of the files has changed? I am just curious why there is a smaller number of files though the system is 99% the same in terms of the amount of OS, stored files etc. Thanks again!

Hi, I have been using MBAM as a tool for occassional scans of my complete system for the past months. I have been using version 1.46 and the current Database. Today I wanted to update the database and a program update was offered to me which I installed. Currently I have version 1.50 installed. After that as usual I did a full system scan. The scan took 1 hour and 50 minutes, the scans in the previous months took 2 hours and 10 or 20 minutes. And the number of files checked was smaller than in the scans before. Last month: 334177 Today: 327644 There were no changes in my system, I did not remove or install any programs. Also no changes in the amount of data, potentially files have been added and not removed. I also did not change anything willingly in the setting of MBAM. I did everything as usual. Is this behavior normal or is there something wrong? Do I need to worry? How can this behavior be explained? Thank you very much in advance for your help!
