OldSchool38 Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 13 hours ago, Nojus2001 said: you could try AVG or Avast( even though they are "almost"the same) Personally i use ClamWin + ClamSentinel and the best thing is that they are good (in my opinion) and free! Is there a good tutorial out there for ClamSentinel? I recall trying it years ago and didn't get very far with it.

I guess you'll have more luck asking about this on the Malwarebytes forum. It´s strange because it passes almost a month now since i ran the update files and it keeps saying that updates are current. I ask also if that 2 files ".exe" i ran, in fact have updated it´s virus definitions ...

Simply jot down today the number pointed by the red arrow in the image below. Repeat the procedure tomorrow and compare the numbers. Draw your conclusions... Does this answer your question?
Queroexperimentar Posted July 5, 2019 Posted July 5, 2019 (edited) This was what i have when installed, 13-06-2019. Update using the 2 files on this link "http://downloads.malwarebytes.org/file/mbam_rules" restarted pc and all the same! It says it´s updated but the version stays always the same in the screenshoot, guess is not working. Have to find another solution for my offline XP service pack 3 PC.

The download is only suitable for older versions of MBAM. As for an offline update of the definition in MBAM 3.5, this is not available! 1

I prefer to have an updated virus defintion than an updated app, as long as it works good!

Version 2 (mbam-setup_v2.2.1.1043.exe) works with the offline update of Malwarebytes. Unfortunately, I would not call this definition current. The current definition for MBAM v2 is v2019.07.05.03. I work in combination with Avast Free Antivirus v17.5.3585.0 and MBAM v2.2.1.1043. 2
Tangy Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 I also use same version of MBAM as @heinoganda and Avast free 18.8.2356 1

This version of Malwarebytes is only for malware or is an anti-virus to, like recent versions?

heinoganda Posted July 8, 2019 Posted July 8, 2019 (edited) If you do not want to favor a particular anti-virus software at this point, Avast Free Antivirus will allow you to download and install the current definition. https://www.avast.com/en-us/download-update I do not use every module in Avast, but only file system protection, mail protection and web protection (in the past the software updater). The only problem where I see that even with the free variant every year the license must be online updated (if this is still the case, I can not answer). Edited July 8, 2019 by heinoganda
maximecool92 Posted July 8, 2019 Posted July 8, 2019 I'm using Panda antivirus is free very light in ram and cpu

It´s a work PC that i have on my job for testing devices. Since 2013 MSE catched in this machine about 5 viruses by inserting usb pen drives... One usb pen that i lent, when i inserted back in that PC was to late, all folders and files in that pen were coverted in .exe files... I´m the only one on my work that worries about security...

Also Clam Sentinel(life-guard) but is blocking a lot of false-positives which is annoying above all since one has to rule them out by putting on whitelist. e.g. irfanview-plugins. so i stopped using Sentinel. And: TFC(temp file cleaner) also false positive. will tell them since is very important daily scanner.
