My bad Jim, wrong pic. I am running the latest beta. Still using a lot of memory at idle!!!

Same picture here. Also cause MS Services and Control app to spin @ 12-15% cpu on an i7-4790, at the same time MBAM service is spinning and MsMpEng is spinning. That goes on for 5-7 minutes, then settles down. No rhyme or reason for what triggers it, just random, but consistent.

I get that also, cpu spins up, my fans that are controlled by Corsair link (my water cooler for CPU) also speed up everytime the cpu goes up from MalwareBytes. No other app in my entire Task Manager uses as much memory as MB does....not even close.
Think they STILL have a Memory leak.

Technicality, I know, but FF is hungry, too! But that's a whole different animal, for a whole different thread, at a whole different time!

I just uninstalled MB3 and banned it from my main PC forever.
I just received 2 BSODs back to back, then it didn't even want to complete a scan.
It has also BSOD'd before a couple times.
If I get a BSOD, it should be my fault, from trying to push my CPU a tad higher, not from an antimalware program.

Like I told @Kari around New Year's, this year, I'm not putting up with any software crap, and software, be it 3rd party, or from Microsoft will get banned when it doesn't perform as it should specially after an update... but only from the machine it's not working on.
I don't have time to go through any rig-o-marole and try to see what's causing it. I use the same software as I have for years, and if after an update, it gets weird, it goes.

Oh yes, our New Year's resolutions. Mine was not to start drinking workdays before 6 PM. I hope your resolution has worked / will work better than mine...

Seriously, I can understand your new policy. It makes a lot of sense; your main PC is there to serve you, allow you to do whatever it is you want to do with it. If you continuously need time and effort to get a particular piece of software working, it's not worth of itt.

What neverved is, I had turned off the rootkit scan a while ago, as many others were getting BSODs from it. I wasn't, but with my BIOS settings, not rootkit is going to be able to get foot on my system:



TPM set to 2.0 only(not auto)


windows 7 install turned off, only the newer 8.1 & 10 allowed


Custom secure boot for my TPM keys
