arch1 Posted July 17, 2011 ID:454985 Share Posted July 17, 2011 Just a small suggestion:When Malwarebytes checks for updates check for program updates first.If there is a program update install it first...If no program updates...Update definitions.The way it currently works it downloads the definitions first the updates the program wiping out the updates and causing a re-download of the definitions.This would cut the traffic on your update server.Thanks !arch1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Esetisthebest Posted July 17, 2011 ID:455006 Share Posted July 17, 2011 It's already built in. In the end of the update, you will notice another update to start, that's the new-program-update-thing. Download a old version and test it out. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

exile360 Posted July 17, 2011 ID:455124 Share Posted July 17, 2011 I agree, downloading a database first only to have it be overwritten by an older database after a program update is downloaded/installed is redundant and a waste of bandwidth, especially since it means that after updating to a new program version, you still have to update the database yet again just to get to the DB version you had just before the program update was downloaded/installed.I've already recommended this change to the developers.Thanks Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
