    I am doing the Superantispyware one as it would not let me update my malware one. I will post the log as soon as it finishes, you will still be here won't you?

    I'm sure someone will be ;)

    What's the error message when you try to update Malwarebytes? Also what version is it? e.g. Version 1.5.1.1800 , Database 7433

    Also what version of Windows are you on? XP, Vista, 7?

    Would I be better of removing that version and downloading it again or just stay with the super anti one?
