We now have a new RC available, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.1.3.1017.
The update is being sent out more quickly to users this time around, but you may still see a short delay in receiving the notification.
Changes from 2.1.2.1016:
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.1.3.1017
Improvements:
• Updated user interface design that showcases a much cleaner look and toned-down color scheme
• Improved scan flow so all scans now automatically check for and apply the latest database updates
• Simplified quarantine flow so only one action button is presented when threats are detected
• Improvements to malware protection capabilities, including enhanced detection and removal of Cidox, Poweliks and ZeroAccess rootkits
• The Minimize button now minimizes the main program window to the taskbar instead of to the tray
• The default display timeout for notifications was changed to 3 seconds instead of 7 seconds
• The default value for "Show notification after successful update" is now set to "Off" for all scheduled updates
• Removed informational message from main dashboard view
• Removed support for Thai language due to quality issues with the translation
• Installation of a Consumer/Home version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware over a Business version is now blocked
Issues Fixed:
• Admin users should no longer see a prompt to login as admin to perform a program upgrade
• Fixed issue where the web protection service (MWAC) was not restarting properly
• Fixed numerous issues with scheduled scans, including showing the correct date for “Next scheduled scan” on the dashboard
• Fixed issue where mbamscheduler was starting on boot when Malwarebytes Anti-Malware was set not to start with Windows
• Fixed issue where any non-English language selected during installation would not be applied after installation
• Fixed issue where Malwarebytes Anti-Malware did not always automatically update the database on installation
• Fixed an issue where the “Delay Protection at startup for 15 seconds” setting showed as enabled, but was actually disabled. (We recommend reviewing this option to ensure it is configured as you intended.)
• Fixed issue where "Error Code 6" displayed at the end of scans
• Fixed issue on Windows XP where scheduled scans on reboot would not start if the "Enable self-protection module" was checked
• Malwarebytes Anti-Malware now honors self-protection settings detected from a previous installation
• Fixed issue where context menu scan was not honoring user selection under detection and protection setting
• Several issues with notifications were fixed

Changes from 2.1.2.1016:
- Fixed more resizing issues when switching languages. Please note that Russian is still a work in progress, so that's the only language that is much wider than it should be for now.
- We reduced the size of the Add Schedule and Edit Schedule dialogs...for those who had trouble viewing the entire dialog these should at least now be more easily re-positioned.
