So I was on Youtube and MBAM opens up a notification saying it updated to version [INSERT HUGE NUBER HERE]. I flip and check it and sure enough....
Can someone else who uses MBAM tell me if this happened to them?

So it blew up, why?

You have a virus that intercepts the update and introduces a bug update that breaks functionality silently, except for that forgeted up version number which the default code will always think as most up to date and therefore you'd have to manually update to fix.

I thought about that, but why did it happen to Pecon98 too?

[Comatose]

Didn't happen to me. Still version 8400.
