I had MWB for a little while now and this is the first issue I experienced ever. I searched for the fix and I tried the first official MWB article on the topic and it fixed it right away...

 

Mine specifically was when it was trying to start web protection. Every other protection service worked fine except for Web. It would say 'starting protection...' or something along those lines and I could watch my page file increase higher and higher. Exit MWB and it dropped immediately. My ram did not move much, strange.... but my page file increased to over 16GB. I even set manual values in virtual memory settings and it just ignored it. I got to around 25-30Gb page-file then my computer locked up.
