memory 9+GB Memory Hog

[MMK]

Hi All,

OK I expect a few teething problems with new products (though most should have been fixed beta testing) but I installed Malwarebytes 3.0.4 today. Rebooted and It took a whole hour before my PC was usable.Web pages took ages to load (usually they are lightning fast with a 200mbps connection) but they loaded like I was back on a 28.8 kbp baud acoustic coupler modem.

My CPU hit 100% and my fan was spinning so fast that I thought my base unit would start rising from the ground and hover above my head, like some weird square drone. My memory (before I had to force a reboot) hit a whopping 9,287GB. I tried grabbing a screenshot, but everything was unresponsive and I rebooted. I have tons of ram, but 9GB? No wonder some people here are complaining that their PC/Laptop is useless. Even mine keeled over in the end. I had to prevent Malwarebytes from starting and disable the service, as it was the service that was causing the issue, so even if you exit Malwarebutes, the service just keeps eating ram.

This is a major issue and I hope you can fix it soon.

Thanks guys.

MMK.
