So I recently reformatted and decided to use Malwarebytes after hearing such good things. Recently I noticed however, when I boot up that Malwarebytes gives me the UAC popup to run each time I boot and CCC won't open until this pop up goes away.

Small annoyance, but odd that it happens so any ideas?

Nevermind, it's a known issue I suppose. Saw on their forums it will be fixed in version 1.42 shortly.

In the meantime, your best option to get around it is modifying how UAC behaves:

Be cautious of the security concerns of making changes there.

Yeah I have it set to not dim the screen. I'll just hold off for the next release. Not a big issue, just don't like when things act weird like that.

UAC is useless. All it does is desensitize people, so they will just click through it without a care anyway.
