DEAR MBAM - I have a question...

(1/4) > >>

Rick:
At what point is a program Ransom-ware?

your idea not to allow updates unless we PAY MONEY is ransom-ware.

Please fix your software

Gamezertruth:
update what ? updating the Virus definitions or the program itself ?  :smiley: you should ask them here too https://forums.malwarebytes.org/

if you mean to updating the Virus definitions you can use both mbam free/Premium version and got a free Virus definitions/ free program upgraded for the program with no cost !

Samson:
Sounds like you selected the "Trial" version rather than the "Free" version on install?

It is what it is...

If MBAM had a conscience, they will enable it to revert back to the free version!

Boggin:
If you are running the trial Premium version then you will need to uninstall it and reinstall the free version - remembering to uncheck that option.

I run the free version of MBAM and it updates fine when I have it manually check for updates to bring it up to date.

The Premium version is an active scanner and while it seems to run okay alongside actual AV programs, I prefer not to run that version alongside my Norton 360 - I had enough problems with the free version last year when they updated that - and there's the cost of paying for a program that works just as well in its freebie edition.
