I have changed the name for MBAM to install it for years, and run it in Safe Mode first time every time, when possible. It usually is enough, but it almost always gets me into GUI where it can be run again, to finish the job. It is a great program and I use it 8 to 10 times a week and doing it this way works for me. I am glad they are addressing the recognition problem, but even after they do that, if I can I will still change the name, because hackers will still be working against them but paying little attention to what I do.
