Malwarebytes memory leak

If you are using this turn it off before it crashes your system, huge memory leak with the new update.
forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/219924-memory-leak-5gb/

They done fucked it up, hopefully it's just a memory leak and not botnet

>antivirus
kys

why would you take such a skinny screenshot, i can barely click that shit

good to know its not just me....noticed it about 10 minutes ago when my system started going sluggish

i'm still on 2.2.1

>using an antivirus in 2017+1

Wyhe best AV, in my experiences, is the most up to date version of CommonSense™

>The STATE of WIncucks

...

I just use windows defender and ublock .

I only personally have it because I got it for free and like to browse while fucked up.
Generally speaking common sense is all you need and the majority of anti virus are pointless

RIP my porn tabs

Thanks for the heads-up. Mine was at 12GB and would have crashed my computer a few minutes later had I not found out.

Glad it wasn't only me.
Was this because of their latest update? Should I just uninstall it?

HOW 2 FIX WITHOUT UNINSTALL:
>GO TO SETTINGS
>REALTIME PROTECTION
>SCROLL DOWN AND DISABLE "RUN WITH WINDOWS STARTUP"
wait for them to fix this fucking mess

>not using 2.2.1

> running malware disguised as 'anti-malware'

Is this girl from the edgy idol group in japan?

Yeah

So it only affects Premium?
Free version is ok?

You should've post Kubogre instead

Web protection broke earlier today. Tried reinstalling and after I rebooted MBAM are my memory and froze my system. Just googled it and this thread popped up.

Amazing how they managed to turn their product to complete shit in just over a year.

It got bought out, 2.2.1 is the last version before it became full botnet bloatware

what the fuck im not even able to uninstall this shit now, I'm convinced, had enough of winblows, will put some money aside to buy myself and me missus a macbook

>Amazing how they managed to turn their product to complete shit in just over a year.
I bet they have diversity quotas an hired a bunch of niggers and women

I've got Premium and mine's not leaking. In fact, I just let it complete a 5 hour system-wide scan overnight and everything's fine.

wew so it wasn't just me, yeah. I came back and noticed Firefox had crashed, went to task manager and MB was on 5gb memory usage, also this appeared

Suppose I'll have to use Windows Defender until then

Unused RAM is wasted RAM, goy

Was wondering why my ram was being maxed out. Thanks.

That's a shame. I've had problems with it before ever since they released version 3 but those problems usually went away on their own. I'm not retarded enough to download malware and anything even remotely suspicious gets run inside Sandboxie (which also ironically shit itself today with incompatibilities meaning I had to upgrade to a beta version).

I'm really sad now. I just want to browse the web and play some games and forget about my miserable life and everything on my PC keeps fucking itself up and it's not even my fault. I guess I won't be renewing my subscription.

>I bet they have diversity quotas an hired a bunch of niggers and women
It really wouldn't surprise me.

I was lucky to get lifetime premium licesnses right before they were discontinued, can you imagine being a good goy and paying a subscription for this bullshit?

The plot thickens.

lmao, I can't get away from you guys

Just another example of AVs doing more harm than good.

>so stupid he has to run a/v (a shitty one at that)
>blame it in MUH SJW's
good job, you officially are trying too hard to fit in

I picked the wrong day to install this, thought I did something wrong or that my fresh windows install was fucked, until my laptop exhibited the same problems.

Got the windows message I was out of memory, check processes, mbamservice up to 15GB used. shit show.

Just used mb_clean to remove it. What's a good alternative? Having *something* installed makes me feel better even if it's 100% placebo. Don't mind spending money. Right now I just have MSE.

...

>blame it IN
Found the pajeet

why didn't they work on testing if the update won't fuck their customers machines up though

Link to this post? Can't find it anywhere on the thread posted by OP

why can't they just push the previous update and fix it later on a weekday?

Probably the reddit post cause that's where I saw that image.

reddit.com/r/Malwarebytes/comments/7tdmad/high_ram_usage/

this is an 18+ website kiddo, maybe you should go back to /r/technology

>he STILL uses Wangblows on Sabbath, in the twenty-seventh day of the first month of the two thousand and eighteenth year of our our beloved Christian era according to the Gregorian calendar which was designed to follow the birth of our lord and savior Yeshua ben Yosef

Why pay for a subscription when the best AV out there is 100% free?
I bet you pay for music too lel

>pay
>when MB keys are retarded easy to obtain for lifetime and they never cancel them

I've been using the same premium lifetime key since like 2012

same here

i dont even remember the last time i had a virus where do they even come from these days

How? Show me how are you able to get working keys.

>where do they even come from these days
Sup Forums retards installing gaymes downloaded from some shady site

public torrent sites

Was In the computer industry over ten years.

I just use windows defender now and some common sense.

But honestly we're losing the war shrug

Data breaches are coming too fast and heavy...

Sigh.

Fucking antivirus bullshit. I should have known I'd be better off without this dumb bullshit.

He cant, they are not sold anymore unless you want to try ebay, where you'll likely get a chinese napkin and the code is LOLF-UCKY-OUGA-IJIN

How do I clean uninstall this fucking garbage? They're website is down.

Which one of you fags is this?

Reminder

Revo Uninstaller.

How will I safely consume JAV?

By using GNU/Linux

For most people, clicking suspicious links and downloading suspicious software.
Same as the past two decades.

However, there are web and email software exploits out there from time to time. You can get your machine screwed through bad luck.

It's just really, really unlikely.

Seeing Norton employees get assblasted on Twitter when their software is identified as the real problem by OS vendors and security experts is always a good time.

It's an industry that still has the same assumptions about software security that they had in 2002.

>mfw i came home and saw my pc just about completely locked up thanks to this
holy fuck did they screw the pooch

you mean Symantec employees

>Needing an anti-virus
God you people don't know how to fucking use a computer.

I've gone 15 years without antivirus software and have never gotten a virus or anything, because I acutally know what I'm doing. It's NOT THAT HARD

>before it crashes your system
too late

Right, my bad.

So it's not just me.

so thats why my pc is so slow
like what the fuck

You've probably had cryptominers and rootkits installed unless you compile everything from source that you've personally audited. Everyone probably has, with or without antiviruses. This isn't the 1990's brain.a era where they make themselves apparent anymore, Gramps.

theres nothing wrong with having an antivirus as long as its not bloated
yeah yeah "you know how to use a pc" sometimes u can get sloppy and its always nice to have a layer of protection
and if u play the "privacy card" well we are using windows so it doesnt really matter

I have MSE now. What AV should I use along with Common Sense 1939?

>This isn't the 1990's brain.a era where they make themselves apparent anymore, Gramps.
>Gramps

lol I'm in my 20s. Go back to /r/eddit and hang out with your babby friends

You don't need to be abrasive to fit in.

All antivirus software is bloated.

Not true, see AV is breaking the OS itself.

It is an issue with the web protection service, which is not available in the free version.
Disabling this stops the memory leak.

I don't need any AV.

I just switch on my computer, open my lunchbox and get to work. But what do I know. I'm just a regular Joe with a server farm and a copy of Myst.

So what do I use now? I uninstalled MBAM and I'm looking what to get now.

...

No wonder it's shit. There are niggers in the company.

I watched a 40 minute video like the one you posted.
It's amazing world-building.

>was listening to Steven Christ just before this all happened
WHAT DOES THIS MEAN, user?

There's nothing you can do now but get hacked, kiddo.

At least they can't hack my boypucci..

I think you know the answer

I certainly can.

I'm sure you can't.

I don't know why I thought coming back here to see if anyone had any useful insight was even remotely close to a good idea.

Oh.
Well I went ahead and uninstalled anyway.
I doubt I'll need it, considering the small pool of sites I go to.

just uninstall and wait for an update

Put on some heels, pull up your stockings, flip up your skirt, and let's find out, then.

They just posted in the news forum.

That's lewd. I was just looking for an antivirus.

MSE, I recommend.

Slut.

I want to hacc your boipuchi with my dick

>have to

You got that right, kiddo. You never stopped using it. You think defender fully shuts down cause you installed a different AV?
