warning window of corrupt Malwarebytes-real or....?

[BeeGeemb]

I received a warning window that my Malwarebytes program was corrupt, asking me to download now a new version. This window looked like a normal Windows style dialog box. I then clicked 'Yes' but then thought better of it and shut down my computer, rebooted and opened my Malwarebytes. It was running with all protections on. I am currently scanning.

My question is, was this a spoof?

I have recieved the same just this morning.  "The Malwarebytes Anti-Malware database is missing or currupt. Would you like to download a new copy?"

Had the same "missing or corrupt database" warning message this morning.   Ran update and scan and it seemed to resolve, but wondering - what was going on?

Scan has been running for over 2 hours now and so far I see nothing detected. Still very puzzled by this. No other events have led me to think my system has some problems/infections.

This scan log shows that Rootkits are disabled however in checking my settings under Detections Options 'scan for rootkits' is checked.

Is something amiss?

For those that still do need help please read the following which will get you fixed up if your issue is due to the recent bad rules database update

 

Malicious Website Protection disabled

 

If none of the steps corrects the issue then something else is going on with your system.

 

@BeeGeemb

That is a known bug that was fixed already and is available in the latest release of the program.
