Well, I still dont think it is my DNS settings. I just downloaded the new MBAM and it still has the same problem. My DNS hasnt changed in a day.

Before I go through all of that, I can't be the only one with this problem. Some else must have the same problem (that is how I tracked it here by MJFischer's post - did he get an answer?), and I would hope that a solution is easily available. I would gather by going into the support or help desk, that no one has any idea of what to do. Besides, I dont think the help desk would help someone with problems with the free MBAM. This is actually very disappointing.

Nope. Not it. Besides, if it was my router, then, I would be having some sort of problem with other programs, particularly security based programs. I have had this same sort of discussion with the Microsoft essentials staff during my virus attack. I will not get into details, but, one must also consider that the program has bugs. I am running a XP system, not Vista or Windows 7. I am beginning to find support and upgrades lacking in attention to this. The problem with MBAM started with the new upgrade and the 14 day trial full version. MBAM got knocked out in the initial attack, but it was the first one that I could bring back to life and I credit it from saving me from doing a hard drive wipe. Right now, when I start MBAM, it says that my program is 36 days out of date. Start there. MBAM has served well, and I don't want to dump it if it can be helped. Trafficdad

I have the same problem. I had a massive virus attack on my security center. Finally wiped it out, but my free MBAM was gone. Cleaned and re-loaded new MBAM. took advantage of the 14day free trial to Pro. After this ended, I could no longer update. Wiped MBAM off again, re-load, same problem. I highly doubt it is a virus problem. Any suggestions?
