Umm, Windows does that.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!

1. Malwarebytes aint bad

2. Malwarebytes is around ~65MB (from the harddrive)

3. Almost all antiviruses lock them self in to prevent being disabled from viruses.

Guys, in essence i'm just reffering to malwarebyte's ram usage, don't take it as a hate comment towards the whole software. I like everything about it besides that. I need an antivirus that i could have on constantly even when playing games. I did not say that malwarebytes specifically is bad.
