Hi,
I have a computer infected with Antivirus 2008. I can't get on line with this computer. This rogue program will not let me. I am sure I can download to another computer. My question is, how do I get Malwarebytes' Anti- Malware loaded onto the infected computer. I am running Windows XP on both computers. Please help!

You can use a USB Pen drive or a CD to collect the exe and the updates on the clean machine then do the transfer but be sure to disinfect the Pen or the CD AFTER it has been in the infected computer else BOTH will be infected ( or if worried, even chuck it )
Hope that helps you
:thumbsup:

Okay,
I downloaded mbam-setup exe. Burned it to a CD, put the CD in the infected computer but the rouge program will not allow it to open. Any ideas?

If you got them downloaded rename the setup file then try installing them again.

Right click the mbam-setup.exe file> click rename> rename it something.exe then try to run it.
