Recently I was alerted that my Lifetime license, which was purchased from Amazon Digital Services, Inc., is Blacklisted. support ticket: 2695584

I recently purchased a license for MB3. However, whenever I try to activate the product, I am prompted with "Unable to connect to the server" error. I've attached my logs bellow. Thanks in advance. mb-check-results.zip

I purchased Malwarebytes for windows for up to 6 computers. I have a MacBook now and the license won't activate, this is the message I get. Product registered does not match key for entitlement. Now this license is an active license and I have 5 out of 6 available. What is the problem? Please help. Thanks

Greetings. My recent problems with Malwarebytes started about a week ago, when for unknown reason Malwarebytes completely stopped updating (it failed to update automatically, and when i tried to trigger update process manually it failed as well, however no error pop-ups were shown and it looked like the program is simply stuck trying to update itself endlessly). Also, whenever i tried to access account information tab from settings, Malwarebytes kept showing me an error message, saying that it is unable to connect to license servers. Today i finally decided to attempt clean reinstall with support tool. The updating problem seems to be solved now, but license servers are still "down" and https://keystone.mwbsys.com/ cannot be accesed through browser, returning ERR_CONNECTION_RESET error (Something strange happened right before the clean reinstall: i tried using windows diagnostic tool on that page and surprisingly the error was suddenly replaced by "OK" message at top-left side of the page, as if it was now available. So i ran the support tool, removed malwarebytes and rebooted my machine... and ran into that connection-reset-servers-unavailable brick wall again!). At this very moment i'm stuck with free version of Malwarebytes and unable to upgrade it back to premium with my license key. It is also worth noticing that .txt file with the key mysteriously dissappeared after reboot, yet other files on desktop generated by support tool remained intact. To this moment i tried different one-time antivirus tools on my laptop (eset, dr. web, kaspersky, msert - none of them found any threats), checked my hosts file (it remains in default condition and seems completely fine) and tried turning windows firewall off to see if https://keystone.mwbsys.com/ becomes accessible that way (it didn't). I'm attaching the log archive generated by Malwarebytes support tool to this message. Hope something can be done about all this. P.S.: in light of recent events in my country (our government tries its best to block Telegram, bringing down lots of IPs and services in process), i want to point out one of possible reasons for this, namely that some IP responsible for updates and licenses could've been blocked here. mbst-grab-results.zip

On the 25th of April I received my four identical activation codes for four Hewlett Packard 15 Notebooks running on Windows 10, successfully installed and activated all four. Unfortunately the #1 machine user downloaded a certain driver.download.ru even though all users are told that hey must not install anything without permission. Disaster as the only final remedy was to do a factory restore to Windows 8.0 and update from a USB to Windows 10 adding all new software and MS Office. The other three machines are all OK but I cannot now re-activate Malwarebytes on the #1 machine as there was no possibility of de-activating beforehand. What do I need to do to get it running again as the full Malwarebytes Premium? Many thanks also for the free update which was installed this afternoon on my personal Windows 7 desktop.

Hello, I'm unable to activate my premium after upgrading to version 3. This is the first time I'm having this issue and I believe I have a lifetime premium subscription. Is it safe to upload a screenshot with my key? Many thanks for your help.

Hello, I just downloaded MB3 and clicked the button to purchase, created an account on the website and purchased a 1 year, 1 device license but the confirmation screen doesnt show me an activation/license code and I never got an email for the purchase. I got other emails when creating the account but nothing for purchasing. In addition, when I refresh my dashboard, it doesnt say I have any subscriptions. What happened? Did my money get taken?? I see the money withdrawn from my paypal account already from Avangate INC. FYI. I have no idea what to do here...

I had to do a fresh install of Malwarebytes on my PC today and now when I try to activate my license, it is grayed out. Wondering what to do to get my coverage back up and running. I only have a License Key, I do not have an ID to go along with it.

Hi, I'm currently trying to enable my real time protection on my premium account, but everytime it doesn't want to activate and the button instantely jump back on 'disable'. I've seen on the web that the problem is frequent but i didn't fond any working solution. Thanks to you and have a nice day, Rattlesneak

Hi, I have a lifetime license for MBAM Premium. I have reinstalled my Windows, it is the same computer. Microsoft knows that, MBAM apparently doesn't. I have contacted support on June 30. No reply yet.
