Is something attacking Malwarebytes?

[pcallah1]

In the last few weeks I have had three different WinXP machines that will not run Malwarebytes. The program will load but not start, get the typical Windows message, "sorry but this program won't run". Tried uninstall/reinstall. no good. Tried Safe Mode, no good. Tried changing .exe name, no good. Other cleaners and anti-viruses work but not Malwarebytes. I'm worried as this is the greatest thing since sliced bread. Anyone else out there having this issue? Thanks...P

Hello pcallah1, welcome to Malwarebytes,

This may help you get MBAM running.

In my computer

Open C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Chameleon

Double Click Chameleon to open the file.

Try the first two listed by clicking Test

Alternatively, see the tutorial http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

...and the winner is...FIREFOX...Tried Chameleon but none worked. Downloaded and ran mbam-clean.exe , re-installed and PRESTO, life is good again. Thanks to both of you for the help, I think I'll put a copy of that cleaner on my thumb drive too...thanks again...P
