kylesgranma Posted September 1, 2016 ID:1059605 Share Posted September 1, 2016 How do I get anti exploit free on windows 10? I had it on windows 7, but cannot find it on windows 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenW Posted September 1, 2016 ID:1059613 Share Posted September 1, 2016 It shows an icon in the task bar. It is a shield with a little "A" on it. There is a separate anti exploit forum after the business forums. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted September 1, 2016 ID:1059635 Share Posted September 1, 2016 Hello and Welcome! If I understand you correctly, your looking for how to install MBAE.

Depending on your display resolution and DPI settings, the Flame on the Shield can kind of look like an A. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kylesgranma Posted September 3, 2016 Author ID:1060014 Share Posted September 3, 2016 I have installed MB , did that a month ago, There is no shield in the task bar. That is what I am asking. How do I get it to work. The little fly- out never comes up informing me that I am protected. How do get it to work? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
KenW Posted September 3, 2016 ID:1060023 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) You should see a little arrow on the task bar, see if it is in that box. If you are running Windows 10, there are other places to "show what icons show on the task bar". Edited September 3, 2016 by KenW Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexSmith Posted September 3, 2016 ID:1060105 Share Posted September 3, 2016 (edited) @kylesgranma, with this being a Windows 10 PC, it's possible you are running in to the following: Edited September 3, 2016 by AlexSmith Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kylesgranma Posted September 4, 2016 Author ID:1060163 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Well I think I figured out my problem. I only have Malwarebytes installed. Not anti exploit. On my windows 7 computer, a little fly-out came up offering anti exploit,when I had malwarebytes scan my computer. I figured the same would happen with windows 10. I guess I will need to download the anti exploit first. So far I have not found a link for the free version Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
daledoc1 Posted September 4, 2016 ID:1060165 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Hi, @kylesgranma: Until the others return.... That explains the mystery! It looks as if @Firefox had the right idea back in reply #3. Yes, MBAM and MBAE are separate programs and must be installed separately. The MBAE installer (a.k.a. "setup" file) is the same for all 3 versions of MBAE (Free, Trial and Premium). It may be downloaded HERE. Just download it and save it somewhere, e.g. on your desktop. Then, this KB article shows how to install MBAE: How do I install Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit? During the setup wizard, you will be offered a 14-day Trial version by default. If you do not want the Trial and you only want the Free version, please just un-tick (de-select) that option when you see it. Then you will have MBAE Free. (Alas, I cannot find my screen shot showing the Trial option, but it's pretty clear in the wizard.) Please let us know if you need more help.

kylesgranma Posted September 4, 2016 Author ID:1060202 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Thank you so much for the links, however the link for the exploit does not work.The download shows 0 bytes and just sits there and runs. Never downloads anything,never changes. The instructional video works great. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never downloads anything,never changes. The instructional video works great. Hmm, that's odd. I have tested the download link under both Firefox and IE and it works just fine. It sounds as if something on your computer is blocking the download -- perhaps a security setting/add-on in your browser, or perhaps your antivirus/firewall. Please tell us: What browser are you using (e.g. Firefox, Internet Explorer, Chrome, Edge, Opera, etc.)? What version of that browser (e.g. Firefox 48.0.2, IE 11, etc.)?

kylesgranma Posted September 5, 2016 Author ID:1060290 Share Posted September 5, 2016 I use firefox and sometimes chrome. Have not tried Chrome. Will do that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

daledoc1 Posted September 5, 2016 ID:1060297 Share Posted September 5, 2016 Hi: That's great news! I'm glad you were able to resolve your issue. Is MBAE Free installed and running now? If you need more help with MBAE, please let us know. If you would like a bit of help troubleshooting your Firefox browser issues, since that is your primary browser, I suggest starting with the steps outlined here: Troubleshoot and diagnose Firefox problems It may be as simple as clearing the history/cache/cookies, or it might be more complicated. But that tutorial is a good starting point. If you do end up needing more help with Firefox, the forum mod team might split off this portion of the thread to a new separate topic in the PC Help sub-forum. No worries, though. Thanks again, Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Firefox Posted September 7, 2016 ID:1060657 Share Posted September 7, 2016 Thanks for stepping in @daledoc1 @kylesgranma thanks for letting us know all is good now. As mentioned above if you have further issues don't hesitate to post. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
