When using MBAM commercial -- and running it active, is there any way to disable just the "IP Protection?" I've tried, but every time I reboot, it comes back.

Here's what it says:

"How do I disable this?

I wouldn't recommend disabling it, but if you must, you can do this by right clicking the MBAM tray icon, and unchecking "IP Protection"."

I have done exactly this, but with every reboot, the IP protection is reactivated.

Go to the bottom of the page and check the post from advancedsetup you have to do a reg edit

Looks like a registry key area to export and backup first I'd think before messing with it. Hmm, didn't know MBAM's paid version had built in IP protection I may have to upgrade to a paid version.

May be worth waiting awhiles as it is causing a lot of frustrations. They are blocking IP ranges rather than individual sights, so many good sights are getting blocked. As yet there is no ability to whitelist either.
