Recommended Posts

a few months ago i read there were some issues when running both mabm & kaspersky (the 18 & 19 vesions i believe) iirc something to do with web protection on mbam not working properly

Anyway i want to know if it has been resolved as my licence for KTS ends in just over a month(i have the 17 version which seems to be fine) I'm running windows 7 if that helps

I believe the only known issue is if you run a Kaspersky rootkit scan and Malwarebytes updates during that scan, it could cause web protection to not load

if that were to happen would shutting down the computer and switching it on  again solve the issue?

 

p.s i'll ask on the kaspersky forums about the possible issue as well

Yes, it certainly may since the rootkit scan in Kaspersky happens in the background on some type of schedule and/or when the system is idle I believe.  Info about that particular issue can be found here and while I do not know if it is still true, there was at least at one time another issue with Kaspersky, although that second issue did not cause Web Protection to turn off; it simply prevented Web Protection from actually blocking any sites.
