How do you disable the annoying "website blocked" notifications?

Best regards

Update your MB, there was an issue that started like one hour ago, and still happening for some. Also try restarting your PC

I have the same problem, updated MB, restarted PC, and the problem is still there... Any ideas?

I really get annoyed by "support@malwarbytes".

I'm getting that annoying "website blocked" pop-up also, about every three minutes. I've tried to "Manage Exclusions", even rebooted. Can't make it go away, and not sure what it is doing. Don't want to find out the hard way none of my email is going out, e.g.

Anyone got ANY idea!?!?

Ooops, in the time it took me to write this I see others have posted same problem. Guess what we need to do is get "support" of their ***** and fix the problem.

But how do you turn off notifications entirely anyway? Where is the setting?

Sorry for not including some directions on performing a Database/Update Package update. That's my bad.

For Malwarebytes 3.0, you can right click the Malwarebytes icon in the Notification Tray of Windows and select Check for Updates. You can also select the clickable link next to the word Updates under  Scan Status on the Dashboard of Malwarebytes 3.0.

For Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.x, you can right click the Malwarebytes icon in the Notification Tray of Windows and select Check for Updates. You can also click the Update link in the Database Version field of the Dashboard.

Ha thanks Alex - I am up to date and had rebooted before I posted but the popup was still active, tho' it does seem to have stopped in last few minutes.

 

Will see how I go.

These updates are downloaded via Malwarebytes' directly. There's no download links for them.
