Firefox Posted January 8, 2010 ID:181524 Share Posted January 8, 2010 the latest version is 1.44, and if it ask to reboot, you need to reboot so that it can replace any files that it needs that may have been in use. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted January 8, 2010 Root Admin ID:181735 Share Posted January 8, 2010 If you have your updates set to update via scheduled task then it may not ask you to reboot, but you do need to reboot after a program update. You do not need to reboot if its only a database rules update.Program version: 1.44Current rules: 3523 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountaintree16 Posted January 9, 2010 ID:181749 Share Posted January 9, 2010 AdvancedSetup,So when the program is updated to a new version, you should reboot?This is what I do, just want to make sure I do it right:I download a fresh copy of Mbam. Uninstall via Control Panel. Restart. Disable my AV temporarily, then I install Mbam, but I don't restart again afterwards. Is this okay? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted January 9, 2010 Root Admin ID:181760 Share Posted January 9, 2010 It should not require a removal in most cases, simply run the new installer over the top of the current installation and then reboot.The removal is only in cases where for one reason or another the update did not work correctly.

mountaintree16 Posted January 9, 2010 ID:181763 Share Posted January 9, 2010 Thanks Ron I do the removal anyway to avoid any issues; Exile recommended that I do it that way so that's what I do now Should I reboot after installing it the way that I do it then?
