    Malwarebytes Web Protection Won't Enable


    Yesterday afternoon MB blocked several attempts while on a web site. No problem though. This morning Web Protection is off. Trying to enable it says it's "Starting" and then reverts to off. Have tried everything I know. Anyone got suggestions?

    Attempting to run a scan is an instant failure. Only lasts a millisecond and finds nothing.

    It was fixed in 3.0.6, but it keeps reappearing. Like anyone is taking MB3 seriously, it is a joke product.

    If you are serious about protection, you should buy Zemana or Emsisoft. Malwarebytes died with version 3.

    Its just a bug in the latest updates we received this morning. Soon as MB sends us the fix, everything will be working again. Just need to have a little patience :)
