Corrine Posted January 12 Author Share Posted January 12 Malwarebytes Version 4.5.19.229 component package 1.0.1860 was updated. Edit Note: Even though it is version 4.5.19.229 in the release notes, some people may receive version 4.5.19.230 that is the latest Beta version, as I did. See Malwarebytes 4.5 Edit Note 2: I asked in a private MBAM forum and learned that, indeed, the incorrect update was posted and but the person did not know why and cannot find out because it is past working hours. Edit Note 3: Correct update information below. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From Malwarebytes 4.5 Features and improvements Security Advisor notifications - Customizable notification that helps you stay secure by informing you when Security Advisor finds an issue that requires your attention.

raymac46 Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 Yes Private Internet Access won't work with Malwarebytes. All kinds of security warnings about PIA servers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crp Posted January 17 Share Posted January 17 hmmm, so some servers are not liked but others are. I'm going to guess that they are looking for torrent flows and heavy traffic (figuring that they are attacking) from the VPN servers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Corrine Posted January 30 Author Share Posted January 30 Malwarebytes 4.5.21.231 component package 1.0.1890 was updated. From Malwarebytes 4.5 Features and improvements Smart Scan - We just changed the game for scheduled scans with Smart Scan! The Smart Scan option now allows a scheduled scan to start only if the computer is in an idle state. Limiting scheduled scans to start only idle time will provide a significant performance improvement as the default nightly scheduled scan (that is typically skipped because the device is usually powered off at night) will no longer kickoff when the computer is first started and hog resources that are needed for the task at hand. Smart Scan is automatically enabled for the default scheduled scan Smart Scan is on by default for all new scheduled scans Scan reminder for new downloads - Our Free product is now even more amazing with new logic that reminds you to scan when we find new files in the download folder. While this isn’t a substitute for Real-Time Protection, it helps build better security habits. Security Advisor: Check startup apps - Assists you in optimizing your computer performance by helping to find apps that have a high impact on Windows startup. Notify for new issues - Updated the display logic so that these notifications no longer auto-dismiss. New background - Malwarebytes has a fresh new look thank to the newly added Clean Sky background. Now users can choose between three great backgrounds to personalize Malwarebytes. Improved error handling for update issues - Today users see an error dialog if the UI is open when a background update fails. This is a poor user experience because the issue is most often automatically resolved on the next update attempt. Minor performance improvements Added translations for new UI flows Issues fixed Missing scan details on Scheduled Scans page Button displays incorrectly in Dark mode Global stats not populating on Real-Time Protection page Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
