I also received the "fix" (sounds more like a band-aid) for the Malwarebytes issue that causes SL & my computer to freeze. They had me go back to an older version too, below is my email. I did not delete the file link, as I was told that without a premium Lic key the legacy version would just act like an older FREE version. And as Jo has already stated others should probably contact Malwarebytes and get the fix as we did. I hope it helps 😛 there is also an interesting link (towards the bottom of the email) to the MBAM forum discussing this matter in more detail.

So did that "fix" work for you DeyJaVue?

Unfortunately, each one of us with "that" particular problem will have to contact Malwarebytes customer support and recreate the same ticket as DeyJaVue in order to get the link to the older version of Malwarebytes I just got of the phone with them and that's what I was just told 🙁
