Many people are finding that MalwareBytes cannot schedule scans using limited user accounts. Well this is not completely accurate as it can be done but it’s a little convoluted. Imagine the scenario where you have an administrator account and one or more limited accounts setup. This is very common in households with kids (or flippin’ well should be anyway!).
You’ll need to logon as an administrator and do the following:
- Remove all scheduled scans and updates if existing
- Create a scheduled update and select “Perform scheduled update silently from the System account”.
- Create a scheduled quick scan, 10 minutes after the update above, again ticking the “Perform scheduled update silently from the System account” option
- Create a scheduled quick scan, 10 minutes after the ones above, but now don’t select the System account option.
Be aware that while scans can run from the limited account, they will not have admin privileges. This means that there is a drastic limit as to what can be removed as the limited account can’t access things like system folders and HKLM registry hive branches etc.

Do you want a free licensed version of Adobe Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere, InDesign, Acrobat, Audition, GoLive, Acrobat, InCopy, or Elements? Well Adobe have done a very strange thing and put direct download links to the CS2 versions of this excellent software online WITH the activation serial key. Why would they do that I hear you ask? Well apparently Adobe have problems with their licensing server and older software is not validating correctly. To combat this and in a gesture of goodwill (or long-term customer baiting) they are making older versions like CS2 run, without requiring validation, on these keys.
