Fred! Error when downloading MBAM. Tested on regular pc and from vm. Here's the details.

UVK v3.0.0.0

16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem
---------------------------
C:\PROGRA~1\UVK\MBAMSE~1.EXE
The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction.
CS:0597 IP:021e OP:63 68 61 72 73 Choose 'Close' to terminate the application.

Let me know if you need any other information.

Also love the new features. The program is getting better and better. Thanks for all the hard work!

Thanks fRequEnCy, You've been a great help. It should be fine now.

Please tell if it does it again, and I'll make it download from another website.

After testing, it does seem to be resolved and can be marked as so. Thanks Fred! Great work.

I just tested again and it was not downloading anymore. Changed the download url to brothersoft.com. It seems that the urls at filehipo.com are temporary. Too bad. the download was fast.

Thanks again for your help.

Yeah. I just tested again and it's doing it again unfortunately. I would think filehippo would be a great source as well. Maybe we can put our heads together and figure something out? PM me so we can talk. Maybe you have IM so we can chat?

Ok check your pm.

I've just tested with the new brothersoft url and it's working fine. But much slower though.

Fred, I think Brothersoft download link choice is VERY bad, because this brothersoft has VERY bad reputation.

All software I download always from developer pages - this is the firstest security mesure.

So change your MBAM download link to this, please:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free: http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free

PS. Thank you for your good work - and especially for the new Immunization section very interesting! - so this new section - with the immunized areas of my choice - works too with the UVK stopped, please?..

Hey, George, How're you doing?

The Malwarebytes website doesn't give you a download link. If you click the download button, it will take you to download.cnet.com, which doesn't give you a direct download link. That's why we must use other sites.

Maybe make it download from bleepingcomputer.com again?

Yes, the UVK immunization is always active once you enable it, even if UVK is not running, or even if you uninstall UVK.

OK., sorry ..

So direct (? .. hmm, setup file) MBAM download link you have here (2th link in the 2th post, marked'THIS LINK')..: MBAM topic 'MBAM Direct Link Down?': http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.ph ... opic=58213

.. or here, setup file too: http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam-download-exe.php

So look on MalwareTips.com topic here: http://malwaretips.com/Thread-Downloadi ... irect-Link

No, my friend, it's the same thing. UVK needs a direct link like this one:
http://www.carifred.com/uvk/UVKSetup.exe

JavaScript download links do not work, neither urls of pages that start the download automatically.

Maybe i can use this one:
https://store.malwarebytes.org/342/cook ... 98dc2.html

Edit: Nope. Doesn't work either.
