Malwarebytes Updated to 2.1.6.1022

Malwarebytes Updated to 2.1.6.1022

I just did a first-time fresh install from their web site, and it installed 2.1.4.1018 (free).

Apparently, the newest version therefore isn't available for manual download / install?

Edit: Says "no updates available".

Not sure how to get the version that OP is discussing.

Edit: The free version I downloaded, does NOT actually protect against malware... interesting.

Go to Settings, Detection and Protection, and under "Malware Protection", it is greyed out, "Disabled" is selected, and the tooltip says that this feature is only enabled in Trial and Premium editions.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Update to 2.1.6

https://forums.malwarebytes.org/ind...bytes-anti-malware-update-to-216/#entry956157

Just wanted to let everyone know that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.1.6 was released today as an update. Initially this update will only be available to a limited number of 2.1.x users through the program updater service.



Over the next week or so we’ll get this new version posted on our main website and will continue to roll it out more widely.



If you wish to install the new version right away you may download it from here.



Here's what’s changed in this release:



Issues Fixed:

· Fixed crash during Heuristic Analysis phase when scanning

· Fixed SDK database load errors by making a change to temporarily ignore the “Check for updates before scanning” setting for Scheduled Scans

· Fixed crash when editing or removing an Access Policy if the name and description fields in the policy were different

· Fixed issue where the “Restart computer when required for threat removal” setting did not appear correctly on Add or Edit Schedule dialogs

· Updated end user license agreement



Known Issues:

· The fix for the SDK database load error issue referenced above is not a permanent fix, but rather a work-around as we continue to investigated these errors. As soon as we have a more permanent solution we plan to roll back the work-around and again honor the “Check for updates before scanning” setting. We should hopefully have this ready for our next release, which will be coming soon.

· If you continue to see these errors after installing 2.1.6, then please reduce the overall number of scheduled scans and updates you have set up. If you stick with the default daily Threat Scan and one scheduled Update Check every couple hours, then you should be fine.

If you wish to install the new version right away you may download it from here.

H i l a r i o u s.
A malware program that doesn't detect malware.
I'll be upgrading for sure.
 
I've still got 2.0.4, still never prompts me for the new version. Tried disabling check for new updates and re-enabling it, still nothing.
 
You can now download it from the website. It didn't prompt me to update from the program so I just upgraded it manually.
