I'd still feel more comfortable if Malwarebytes didn't report to Security Center so that Windows Defender can still function as normal.

So basically, Malwarebytes still isn't considered to be antivirus yet. If that's the case, why even report to the Security Center to begin with? Wouldn't that be a bad thing since that would effectively turn off Windows Defender?

I generally thought that running the premium version of Malwarebytes (I'm trialing it right now) alongside anything else isn't a good idea.

I know about that but as soon as you tell Malwarebytes to report to the Windows Security Center status of itself, you lose access to Controlled Folder Access.

Are there any plans to implement something where access to specific files is automatically denied unless they're whitelisted to do so?

I had Avast installed and 2004 installed nicely. It was only MalwareBytes that caused issues.

Avast is installed as well.

What's worse is that I had to uninstall MalwareBytes before I could even install version 2004 of Windows 10. Having MalwareBytes installed while trying to install Windows 10 version 2004 caused my system to BSOD during the installation which caused the system to roll itself back to 1909.

MalwareBytes Anti-Exploit isn't being loaded into any of the Chrome child processes. It is being loaded into the main Chrome process though so something's not right here.

OK.

I have a current lifetime license for MalwareBytes 1.x. Am I to understand that if I have a current lifetime license that 1-PC license will become a 3-PC license? If so, how will that occur? Will we have to plug our current 1-PC license into some kind of form on a web page to have it upgraded to a 3-PC license that's compatible with 2.x?

The update solved the issue.

This has got to be a false positive. windirstat.zip

I only have one NIC in my mrimary machine, a wired Intel NIC.

Is there a chance that you guys can make MalwareBytes not bug you about the Web Site Blocking being disabled? Because when you turn that off the icon in the clock tray is gray instead of the usual nice blue color.

After troubleshooting what has got to be one of the most tiring and lengthy troubleshooting experiences I've ever had to deal with, I have finally narrowed down where the problem exists. MalwareBytes AntiMalware Web Site Blocking. Now, to give some background on the issue. Every so often I'd hear pops and other forms of audio glitches in my audio while playing music on my computer. So I opened a tool called DPC Latency Checker and yep, DPC latency spikes were everywhere. And you know what, those audio glitches would appear right when a bunch of those DPC latency spikes occured. So I closed that program and opened LatencyMon and the number one culprit for DPC Latency Spikes was NDIS.SYS. So I was looking around the Internet and someone started mentioning in another forum about restarting the "Base Filtering Engine" service which one of the dependencies was the Windows Firewall Service. I executed the following... net stop "Base Filtering Engine" /Yes net start "Base Filtering Engine" Yay, no more DPC latency spikes and no more audio glitches either. Problem is that running without the Windows Firewall isn't a recommended thing to do. So I started doing some more research into the issue, specifically I Googled for "windows firewall high dpc" and one of the things that it linked to was a page that stated someone had MalwareBytes AntiMalware installed, the pro version to be specific. Well, knowing that I didn't want to uninstall it I began to think about what component of MalwareBytes hooks into the Windows Firewall. Website Blocking! I unchecked those options in MalwareBytes and EUREKA! No more DPC latency spikes and no more audio glitches!

Here is the file in question. WISOVD_xp.zip

Again, I forgot to attach the file.

Location of File on System: C:\Program Files (x86)\WinISO Computing\WinISO\bin\driver\WISOVD_xp.sys Detected by Malwarebytes As: Rootkit.Necurs I want the file through VirusTotal (results of scan) and all their scans came up clean. This file has alos never been detected as a threat by Malwarebytes until today.

There is a second SDK Manager.exe file on my computer, that file's MD5 is D8CA27D7648276F40A7663145480E45C. SDK Manager.zip

Crap... I don't think it attached the file in question. AVD Manager.zip

I had MalwareBytes pop up an alert about AVD Manager.exe from the Android SDK. I checked VirusTotal for the MD5 signature of 43EFBE2A0EC17D683EED2FB9884F1F6F and according to these results, I have to say that it can't be a threat.

I have a false positive here, it's part of the IDT PC Audio driver package. I have attached a ZIP file containing the file that's detected as well as a log file made with the program according to the information in the post that was stickied. False Positive.zip

Doubt there will ever be a need for that on the iPhone. Remember... if it doesn't pass the eyes of the ever the "most powerful gods of iTunes" then it doesn't get to be on your iPhone. Android is different, they allow more freedom... freedom that I have come to appreciate with my recent move from the iPhone to the Android platform.
