• Malwarebytes BIG problem

    Posted on January 27, 2018 at 21:04 CST by • Comment in the Forums

    There’s an acknowledged problem with Malwarebytes. Lawrence Abrams at BleepingComputer has the details:

    An update pushed by Malwarebytes today for their Malwarebytes Anti-Malware product has caused a lot of problems for those who use their program. This new protection update caused mbamservice.exe to consume a lot of memory and upwards to 90% of the computer’s CPU. A new update has been pushed that resolves these issues.

    If you’re using Malwarebytes, start it and check for updates.

    Once the update is installed, your computer should no longer be having problems and mbamservice.exe should be using the appropriate amount of resources again.
