IP 239.255.255.250 PopUp

[kklear66]

About 10 minutes and no pop ups here.  I am outta here and thanks everyone.  Have a great day!  

[ncrefugee]

ok It has been 4 min without a pop up. 1404 update on ver 3.0 but more importantly to me, what kind of moron does not display the same info (originating program) in the scan report that is displayed in the fleeting pop up window. The engineers should corner the ux designer and beat the crap out of him with a cluestick.

Had the same problem, but the update seems to have fixed here too. I see some of you guys posting update #'s, you getting this somewhere in the software? No luck in finding, ha.

Also note. popup started indicating chrome was the culprit, when chrome was closed it switched to vivaldi. Now chrome updates whenever it feels the urge, but vivaldi waits for my approval so I knew it was a F/p. But I shut down the ssdp service which uses that ip and it had no effect. Is win 10 now ignoring that service status? Was the F/P based on some other activity?

Malwarebytes 3 Version: 1.0.1404, you can download this from the website? Sorry, longtime user of the 2..2.1.1043, but it never had problems. My newer version seems to have updated and no longer has the popup, didn't even reboot.

If you mean for V3, it's "Update package version" Under Settings | About. Counter intuitive I'm afraid! :-(

Check, guess I didn't really look that hard, ha. Seen that before too....thanks.

V3

1.0.1404 seems to have worked for me too.  Thanks Malwarebytes Staff

1404 did it, no popups in 35 minutes.

Exactly... what was wrong with the y.m.d.xxx format where xxx is a running number for the day?

[DaveLeBlanc]

Seems to be fixed. All is good.

Haven't seen the svt one in a taste, but the Chrome one is still happening all over the place.

[rsdiol]

MB 3.0.5.1299
Component Package 1.0.43
Update Package 1.0.1404

Seems to have resolved this problem.

[Thamyris]

Update 1.0.1404 for 3.0.6.1469 has arrived on my computer (Win 10) and finally stopped it. They were quick enough to tackle so I suppose one can't complain about the hour spent trying to identify the cause of the annoying popups. At first it seemed like a Chrome problem, so that was a wild-goose chase.

Here's what I'm loaded up with.  Still happening.  Help -- pimp down, code 42!

Looks like you are on Component Package Version 1.0.50 when you should be on 1.0.75 - suggest you update to the latest version of MB 3.0 from the link mentioned here - or if you wait, it looks as if it will be pushed to you automatically.

Let's try this first....

1. Please follow the steps in this pinned topic to uninstall your current version of MBAM and reinstall the latest build - Malwarebytes mb-clean tool (after uninstalling you can download the latest version to re-install from HERE)
2. If that does not correct the issue, then please read the following and attach to your next reply the 4 requested logs - Diagnostic Logs (the 4 logs are: mbam logs zipped, FRST.txt, Addition.txt and mb-checkResult.txt)
3. NOTE: More info about Malwarebytes 3.0.6 CU3 HERE; MB 3 User Guide ONLINE; MB 3 User Guide PDF; MB 3 FAQ: Malwarebytes 3.0 - Frequently Asked Questions
   

Please let us know how it goes.
 
Thank You,

Just an observation: according to 'Settings | About' I'm still on 'Component package version' 1.0.50 and update to 'Update package version' 1.0.1404 solved the issue for me..

That is correct, this issue is not with the Program version per say, it had to do with the database version, once they updated the database (definition file) the issue is resolved.

However it would not be a bad idea to also update your Malwarebytes program itself.

popups are so annoying. we need a feature that malwarebytes only show numbers over it's icon instead of forcing you to watch at that big popup window.

Thanks. Downloaded and ran latest install *without* prior uninstall and/or running Malwarebytes mb-clean tool. Component package version updated to 1.0.75 successfully. Thanks again for the suggestion.

Great glad to hear you installed the latest version, if you run into issues, you may want to try the clean reinstall method I mentioned HERE, as that is what they are recommending...

I'll bare that in mind as there is the question of why the component package did not update of its own accord. However, I've just lost enough time already today, so I took the chance that just running the install would be sufficient in this instance.
