Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.0.3

Note: "Beta" changed to Release Candidate" Oct 5, 2014

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.0.3 Beta is here and available for testing. Please download via the link below and install it. Over the top/upgrade installations from previous versions are fine. Please test it, use it, run it and try to break it as best you can and inform us of any problems or issues you experience.

We do plan to plan to make changes to the UI in our next release due out by year's end based on the feedback we've received on the 2.0 UI after 2.0.3 which will include dampening the colors and more and we will be doing user testing to make sure it's good and that it works, however 2.0.3 is primarily a bugfix release.

Here's the list of changes which are subject to change depending on how testing goes:
