    hey Guys sorry to post here but i can't post in Malwarebytes Forums

    so the story i installed Malwarebytes Free in admin account on windows 7
    i started the trail from a non admin user and the trail ended after a month

    i logged on in the admin account and started the trail from the admin
    Now i have trail in the non admin account again

    I don't know but it seems not fair for malwarebytes people

    That's always fun :D But yeah, it should be reported. I seem to have a bug too, where sometimes the right click context menu won't work unless I go in, uncheck it in the program settings and re-check it. You could (and probably should) sign up for their forum to report that.

    Global Syria Ban? I'm not aware of such, nor would MBAM ban anyone due to country of residence (if they did they'd lose me as a customer). They're a security company, not a political group.

    Big difference in imported goods and signing up for a free forum. I knew there were sanctions in place, but that should have no effect whatsoever for forum usage. I hope someone from there comes along and explains this.

    Hello Ranget:

    It appears as if your notification got through.

    http://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?showtopic=91711

    Remember, Marcin reset the free trial offer after a few folks reported trouble: https://www.wilderssecurity.com/showthread.php?t=303973.

    FWIW No banned member with the username "Ranget" exists on the Malwarebytes' forum.

    HTH :)
