Maurice Naggar Posted January 23, 2012 ID:519639 Share Posted January 23, 2012 Hello captnlen.I also use MSE on my XP Pro-SP3, with MBAM and no issues.Does your system have a 3-rd party firewall? if so, which one ?Note there is a public beta 1.60.1 which most likely would fit your sys better, athttp://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=104955&st=0 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maurice Naggar Posted January 23, 2012 ID:519708 Share Posted January 23, 2012 @captlen1) Please stick with your other topic in the Beta area2) Don't use the Cnet or any other download site.3) The zip file in our Beta forum is what you need really to work with.4) Save the zip file to your system5) Run this cleanup sequence (do not use Regedit or any other reg cleaner !)Please follow this sequence for MBAM removal & re-install:1) Go to Control Panel and Add-or-Remove programs ( for WIN XP.) For Vista / WIN7 use Programs and Features.uninstall Malwarebytes' Anti-MalwareExit Control Panel2) Logoff and restart your computerGet, save, and then run the utility at the following linkhttp://www.malwareby.../mbam-clean.exe3)Logoff and restart your computer again.4)Now, reinstall Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware.
