Have you removed and reinstalled the software?
Yes, try uninstalling it, then restart in Safe Mode and download a new copy and install it there. Then update it, go to settings and check off the box that says 'scan for rootkits' and then have it scan your system. When complete, remove all it finds and restart in normal mode. You can also save the log and post back its contents for review to see if there is anything else that might be needed to ensure that your machine is clean. You have to be a little bit crazy to keep you from going insane.
Is this the free version of MalwareBytes? If so did you deselect the "trial"? If not you don't need the trial, the basic version is good enough and that is definitely on demand only. Always pop back and let us know the outcome - thanks
