Never known it have any problems with any other security software.
What was the message exactly and was it when you tried to download it or install it?

You may have something on your computer that you don't know about that does not want MBAM to kill it.

MBAM will not install or run.

If Malwarebytes Anti-malware or any of your security programs won’t install, run or update, then you’ve probably got malware or the effects of malware on the computer (some types of malware will disable Malwarebytes Anti-malware and other security tools).

Follow instructions:

I hope you're not hi-jacking butterfly's thread wine~o, perhaps you could get mod 2 to split it. :lol:

Wine~o,
Your pic shows PC Tools' Spyware Doctor conflicting with AVG not MBAM causing the problem
Is your Spyware Doctor just the antispyware version or the Spyware Doctor with Antivirus?
If the latter, then you should not have two antivirus programs installed and running.
Remove one of them.

As for MBAM, if you cannot install it, you may have something blocking it that should not be on your computer. Follow dave's advice and rename MBAM when installing.
