Hello,
I am having problems on my wife's computer in that MBAM takes all the CPU and most of the memory at times. After trying to fix it, I finally had to remove it. I am also running NIS 2015.
On the MBAM forum it is advised to use a program called FSRT.exe downloaded from bleeping computers. When I tried this NIS prevented it from downloading and deleted it. I was advised to disable NIS and download it, which I did. At this time Windows Smartscreen advised not to run it as it was malware. I ran SuperAntispyware after downloading another copy and it deleted it. Tried again and Hitmanpro stated it was suspicious and deleted it. When I finally tried to run it, it pops up a window with a warning that the program is used "as is" and at own risk. It is unsigned or certified.
I am very wary about using it. I've been told it has been used frequently and is a necessary part of the MBAM troubleshooting process.
I am in a quandary as I don't believe everything I am told on the internet .
Any advise gratefully appreciated.
