Schnitzi Posted January 19, 2012 ID:518562 Share Posted January 19, 2012 Greetings,This is my first post here, so forgive me if this is posted in the wrong forum. Feel free to move this thread, or request I repost, and I will do so, happily.I am new to the Malwarebytes program, and am still learning how to work with it. I know there are ways to customize it for my needs & uses, but before I do that, I wanted to weigh in with those that know more than I, so as I don't make a critical error.I am trying to reinstall/download a game from a website, and I'm getting a message that Malwarebytes has "successfullyh blocked access to a potentially malicious website". I've downloaded from this site before, and feel 100% confident that they are not trying to install anything malicious onto my computer. Note: I can access the general website no problem. It's when I click to download that I get the warning.If anyone is able to guide me as to what I should do to remain protected, yet gain access to this download, I would be very greatful. I've attached a printscreen of the error for your review.Thank you for your time.Schnitzi Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryFCM Posted January 22, 2012 ID:519483 Share Posted January 22, 2012 Sorry for missing your post.The block was due to a plethora of fake AVs and the likes. However, this appears to have finally been cleaned up, so the block will be removed on the next update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzi Posted January 23, 2012 Author ID:519507 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Thank you very much for responding, Steve. So what do you propose I do? Wait until the program updates, and try to install again? Or is there something I'm supposed to do before that?Thanks again!!!Schnitz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MysteryFCM Posted January 23, 2012 ID:519508 Share Posted January 23, 2012 No need to wait for the program update, the definition update should be out already. Just right click the Malwarebytes AntiMalware tray icon, and run an update. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schnitzi Posted January 23, 2012 Author ID:519651 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Looks like we're set, Steve. I've ran the update, and will try to reinstall the game later.Thanks again for your time, patience and help.Have a good one,Schnitz Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
