Hi @SbbKbb, Don't feel like you have to rush. It can wait until later. If something was installed, it will still be there. Nathan

You couple copy/paste it to me through PM as well.

Hi @Att73, Any VPN should work fine with Malwarebytes for Android. However, I'd recommend this one: https://mullvad.net/en/guides/installing-mullvad-android-devices/ Nathan

Hi @ingber, I did some testing, and it works! So yes, you can use Kiwi with the MB extension! Guess I'm switching browsers Malwarebytes for Android only detects phishing sites, so using the Malwarebytes extension in Kiwi is definitely an added layer of security — even if it is mostly blocking windows malware sites.

Hi @jharris1993, Although it's not possible to not show the splash screen (fun fact: "the cyborg from Hell" is named ZERO), I can assure this isn't whats slowing things down. It takes awhile for things to load sometimes, and the splash screen is just something to look at while this is happening. This is especially true after a device reboot or force stopping the app. Sorry for the inconvenience. We put performance as a top priority, but only so much we can do while still keeping you protected. Nathan

Hi @Msrtin, This sounds like it may be browser related ads. This is caused by the way most browsers handle redirections executed by javascript code. Most browsers don't do a great job of preventing these redirects, which also cause ad pop-ups. Advertising affiliates are aware of this, and exploit this weakness. Even if an advertising affiliate is shut down for using this exploit, they just come back with a different affiliate id and are right back at it. The best way to block these pop-ups are to try a different browsers, disable javascript, install a browser with ad blocking (like Opera), and/or install Ad-block Plus. If you encounter these pop-ups again, back out of them using Android's back key. Also, clearing your history and cache will help stop the ads from reoccurring. Thanks for reaching out, Nathan

It's much appreciated!

Hi @Justsaying, @Sirlansalittle, @Witch, Yep, certainly sounds like browser related ads to me as well. This is caused by the way most browsers handle redirections executed by javascript code.

Hi @Hacked2death It’s not unusual for there to be attempts to break into an email account by brute force attacks or guessing questions for “forgot password”. It was a good idea to set up two-step authentication, and to use a strong, unique password. Having a unique password is key since if you use the same for all accounts, it makes it easy for them to break into other accounts. It’s doubtful they have you iris/fingerprint identity; they probably just went through “forgot password” to reset. As far as the flip phone overheating, most likely a hardware issue then hacking. I would try again to reset your passwords with strong/unique passwords and set up stronger authentication methods where you can. Sorry to hear you having so much troubles, Nathan

Hi @Malwarekiller112, I can check your Apps Report to see if there is anything unusual. Nathan

Hi @Malwarekiller112, It is a downloader, thus it can download other malware apps in the background. If you can send me an Apps Report, I can see exactly what app is causing this and assist removing.

Hi @chrise00, I would suggest creating a ticket with Malwarebytes Support. They can look up the key and make sure everything is working. Nathan
