Malware bytes keeps screwing over my discord.

[KiteoHatto]

I've had discord running with malwarebytes fine in the last couple of months, but now all of a sudden it MWB just went 0-100 on it for some reason.

First, pictures started to load "slowly".

Then they stopped loading all together.

Now I cant even use the gifs from the chat category.

 

I've added cdn.discordapp.com into exclusions as well as the discord itself.

Now the bloody thing even disconnect sometimes and gets stuck on loading animation.

What else do I have to add to the exclusion or which thing do I turn off to actually chat with my friends and see what pics they share ?!

 

Im SO close to uninstalling it and looking for another security solution because it's been way to aggressive with everything lately. It flagged, wargaming launcher, warframe launcher, I couldn't even update ESO because it was stuck on connecting.

Hi @KiteoHatto,

Sorry to hear of the issues you're having.

Thanks for providing the troubleshooting file.

To confirm, do all exhibited issues disappear when Malwarebytes is not running? To confirm, right-click the Malwarebytes icon in your notification area/system tray and click Quit Malwarebytes? Afterwards, check if the issues still occur.

If they do, let's see if we can narrow down if a particular Real-Time Protection module is responsible. Start by relaunching Malwarebytes and disabling Web Protection by turning it off via the Dashboard. Check if this has any impact on the issues. If it doesn't, move onto another Real-Time Protection module and repeat until the issue no longer occurs and you've identified which module is responsible.

The only way for me to see discord pictures is if I disable MWB protection options and remove it from startup. Then I have to restart and the next time I boot up my pc discord works as it should.

 

I've tried reinstalling discord several times, but I haven't tried reinstalling MWB yet.
