Buggy Malwarebytes protection update wreaks havoc for users
Posted: Mon Jan 29, 2018 2:04 pmBuggy Malwarebytes protection update wreaks havoc for users.
I had a fun day today having to go around to all my PC's and uninstalling Malwarebytes because my users lost internet access.
It had a bad update that caused false positives and started popping up messages blocking "suspicious" sites etc...My laptop at home experienced this as well. Drove me crazy.
Good news is it has already been patched so uninstall and reinstall will fix it. I will reinstall it at work for everyone soon.
