Hi Avinash,
Here is my review on the MBAM Pro. Yes I'm a proud winner of Lifetime MBAM!!

Positives:
1. system does not hangs, etc
2. can continue with general activities like email, docs & others
3. As I said earlier (in blog), GUI is sweet & simple..
4. As I said earlier (in blog), low on resources
In general usage is:
CPU usage: 0-50
Memory: 60-61K
What is required?
1. Sometimes the CPU usage shoots up to 50%, I don't understand why? See below:

2. The scan shows "Time Elapsed", but i hope we should also have "Time Remaining", however MBAM could show this new parameter based on results from last 4 scans.
3. There should be a prompt before scanning to turn off other active protections (like I have Avast)
4. updates usually are of the size 4Mb & more, this could be reduced.
5. Once Protection is disabled from taskbar, there is no option in the GUI TAB-Protection to start it.
6. In the PRO version, with right-click ontaskbar icon, there should be a help option available-for easy&fast access.
7. In the GUI TAB-Protection, there is no option to stop protection. It is a must. Currently only stop protection is through the icon in Taskbar.
8. From the taskbar, if 1st "Enable Protection" & "IP Protection" r both enabled, then 2nd if then both disabled, then 3rd if I try to enable just "IP Protection", many times it doesn't gets enabled.
9. In the taskbar MBAM icon on right-click there is no About option. So in case I have to check what version/definitions I have (i always keep auto updates disabled) i need to open GUI. I don't c a reason of not having this option, as it is very andy & wouldn't eat any resources.
10. In the scan results I would prefer to see Mb scanned, apart from listing Objects scanned. The reason is (see below), for different Full scans I see there is a considerable time difference.

11. The | in the scan (see below) r quite confusing:

In total, I'm truly satisfied..
With some of the points I suggested above r implemented, it would be more beneficial.
