Sketchy Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Update - Narrate - Apr 14, 2014

Hello HF,
So, first of I wanna say I am sorry if this is in the wrong section. I wanted to post in the Malware removal section but I don't even know if I am infected or not as this could be a legit update.

So, I just ran Malwarebytes pro, to do my daily check up, than there was a message that came up that said something like, you're using a outdated version of malwarebytes pro, so I clicked yes for the update. Now it uninstalled Malwarebytes, and reinstalled a new one. This honestly looks pretty weird and it all seems pretty sketchy. I would appreciate some re-insurance as this does seem like a rogue.

Thank you.

OP please close this thread. You misinterpreted Mbam's newest 2.0 update, you are safe and it does look sketchy, but has new functions and I like it.
