Suggestion: Change Notification Tray Icon when Protection Stopped

[siliconman01]

I recommend that you have a different icon appear in the Notification Tray when MBARW protection has been stopped....maybe put a red dot in the current icon signifying that protection is off. And you should issue an alert message that MBARW's protection is off if it is off when system is rebooted or program is restarted.  This is consistent with what you do on MBAE and MBAM.

Thats for the feedback! I will be forwarding these to the correct place.

Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware Beta 2 has been released, download or update now!

(If you have MBARW installed it should prompt to update)

Malwarebytes Anti-Ransomware (BETA) 0.9.5

Improvements:

• Improved rules to prevent false positives on legitimate software

Issues Fixed:

• Fixed issue that interfered with proper detection of latest CryptoWall 4 variant

Does this mean that the suggestion posted above has been implemented in the latest BETA build? (Still waiting for the upgrade prompt ... ... ...)

[Decrypterfixer]

If you still have not gotten the prompt for upgrade (it will be on the main GUI) please exit MBARW and restart

[Buddel]

I got the prompt a couple of minutes ago. All is fine here. Thank you, Nathan. Much appreciated.

+1 for the suggestion to change the icon and enable a notification when protection is off.
