Note:

• You will need to reactivate the program using the license you were sent via email if using the Pro version
  
• Launch the program and set the Protection and Registration. Then go to the UPDATE tab if not done during installation and check for updates.
  Restart the computer again and verify that MBAM is in the task tray if using the Pro version. Now setup any file exclusions as may be required in your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/Firewall applications and restart your Anti-Virus/Internet-Security applications. You may use the guides posted in the FAQ's here or ask and we'll explain how to do it.
  

If it is not successful, would you mind telling the operating system (XP/ Vista/ 7) and Anti-Virus/Internet-Security/ firewall you are using on the computer.

Please post back if you have further questions.

Thank You
