Malwarebytes won't update

[SJ3]

Hi, all,

I was trying to update Malwarebytes, but it keeps freezing as it tries to connect to the server. I tried to do a manual update, but I don't think it worked. I ran a quick scan, but nothing turned up, so I'm not sure what the problem is.

Attached are some test results, which I hope may help.

If you need any other info, please ask, and I'll try to provide it.

Thanks in advance!
