If you already have this just click update and it will update your version. If not this is an awesome product to have for an on demand scanner.

I have only heard off this program, Until a few days ago.

Vettetech, What do you think about this program?

Its awesome. Been using for awhile now. It doesn't run a backround service if you only use it on demand. Updates in seconds. I still use SAS also.

Thanks for reminding me Vet,i`ve just reformated and i forgot about MBAM.It`s a nice little app,but why did they change the shortcut from a sabre toothed tiger to a box with an M in it.

[Vettetech]

Not sure Matty but I only use it on demand so I never see the tray icon. "M "looks better. It also incorporates into the shell.

  Hmmm, I really don't see reason for running so much AS programs, either inactive (as on demand), it cant hurt I know but it seems to me like obsession, isn't it?
Do you ever find something with them? 

[Vettetech]

No its not obsessive. Its only on demand and its free. I scan once a week with SAS and MBAM. Nothing wrong with that.

[salmonela]

And did you ever find some malware with them?

No but then again I have never been infected with anything in over 5 years now. But how do you know your infected unless you do a scan. Never hurts when its free. Correct.

it sure is a nice app i was using webroot and it just killed my sys it just made it s l o w i also use SAS both Mbam SAS are on demand. i do not think it's over kill to have them i kinda look at it like i do CMF i have not got hit by BOF but if i do CMF is there. i have other things in place also and has no affect on my sys what so ever.i have not found nothing with them not evan a cookie in FF/IE in a long time but will keep them just in-case i ever need there service.

MBAM is suddenly pulling up WWDC by gkweb as a Trojan.It never used to,anyway pretty sure it`s a fp.Just let them know.Checked it with several online scanners and it`s ok.
So if anyone else runs into this they should be sorting it.
