Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware problem

I'm pretty new here (though I've come here once for help to remove a nasty trojan). I downloaded the Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware before and it worked like a charm. I've been using it periodically ever since to ensure I have no more problems with that kind of stuff. My problem is though, just about two hours ago, the program doesn't work anymore. I opened it up, started a quick scan, and then it simply disappeared. When I tried to click on it again, I kept getting this message:



I've done nothing to change the program whatsoever. I have no idea what's causing this. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it, but I still get the same result.

I've already installed the java update and the winlogin suggested on the Read This Before Posting page, and I recently updated my adobe previously. I primarily use Firefox, but still have Explorer as a backup, and I'm running on Windows XP.

Now, I'm not exactly computer savvy, but I get the feeling there is something wrong, and I would really like to stop the problem (if there is one) before it gets worse. I would greatly appreciate any help on this and thank you in advance.

By the way, I'm not sure this is under the correct topic, and I apologize in advance if it is.
