  1. Mac's unacceptable slowness I've never experienced with any antivirus I've tried (even with the bitdefender deep system scan)
    In windows I regularly use the pc while scanning harmful elements and even when doing the complete file system without any slowdown
    Aside from currently scanning the mac with malwarebytes lasts 10 seconds and not 3 minutes, I do not ask for a compulsory scan of the entire file system and a bit more thorough scan in general (such as scanning Windows bad elements that does not make every single file but it is a bit more in-depth than the current mac) but the chance to do it (each one then is free to choose the super fast scan or the slowest but most in-depth scan)
    summing
    I propose to leave the product with the functions it has (apart from still missing the Italian and other languages)
    in addition
    add a more thorough scan
    Add the ability to scan external disks and pendrive
    Additional Websites protection (add to Google SafeBrowsing) with the ability to block certain types of content (phishing, weapons, drugs, gambling, sex, pedophilia (this block should not be mandatory but by choice)) and ad -blocking during navigation

    also because where it can place unknown malware it does not know



    and in this way you can only have malwarebytes as a complete solution and do not have to install 15,000 different antivirus products

  2. I disagree with it
    Scanning to protect against any kind of malicious software is paramount.
    The selection of the area to be scanned also allows you to scan a disc drive or a pendrive.
    In-depth scanning as a possible choice, not mandatory, allows anyone who wants to protect the entire system; if alvarnell does not want to be totally protected is free to do so.
    Google SafeBrowsing is not omnipotent, a better security without breaking down its performance (windows does not have any performance crashes, I do not see why it should happen in macOS) is only positive.
    Equifax second blog.malwarebytes.com was also violated (https://blog.malwarebytes.com/101/2017/09/equifax-aftermath-how-to-protect-against-identity-theft/)
    Many times with scans searching for malicious software unknown, new issues have been discovered and this has allowed, without locking the machine, to save the data of multiple users.
    Who knew, for example, Not-Petya or Wannacry before the global epidemic exploded?

  3. A tip about Mac protection

     

    Protect from harmful websites and scanners harmful elements (so it's called in MS-Windows) with disk selection and for the moment it would be almost perfect for MacOS version.

    (Obviously protecting against malware, ransomware, viruses, pup, etc.)

     
  4. I have a macbook pro 2012 with ssd with filevault with macOS Sierra 10.12.6
    I installed the malwarebytes 3.0 beta for mac and did not have any problems
    When the official release was released I uninstalled the beta and installed the official one and I had no problem
    When MalwareBytes notified the presence of an update I installed it on the previous version without making any uninstallation and even here no problem.
    In the last release the only thing missing is the version of definitions for the rest is all ok.

  5. IOS antivirus does not exist but some software houses develop protection apps from harmful web content and limitation of websites that are categorized by the user amongst the intended categories. For example, it is possible to block websites containing naked images, pedophilia, alcohol, drugs, weapons, phishing, gambling, and other similar malicious sites and even adblocks. It would not be bad if Malwarebytes produced such a app for iOS , but calmly: first optimize the version for macOS then well come iOS

  6. Anti-everything protection is not needed, but a full-fledged protection can be desirable even at the web level without worsening the performance of the mac.
    Apart from the fact that the Windows version does not slow down so much the pc, even less, in my opinion, would happen with the mac that is a much better performing machine

  7. Specifically I was referring to the transfer of data between my mac and my pc windows.

    Other topic:

    It would be interesting to implement protection from harmful web sites (not just phishing but all kinds of web threats) that should, like in windows, block the opening of the site with a web page with your logo, protection against threats Still unknown (as though I'm not mistaken already there in windows) and cover all kinds of existing threats in macOS (ramsomware, malware, exploits, etc.) and also the ability to do custom disk scans (not just the system disk But also an external pendrive or hdd (excluding time machine disks) with the ability to scan all the disk files (both in external and internal drives).
    Is it already possible to implement it in version 3.1 for high sierra?
    thank you
    regards

  8. I have installed MalwareBytes 3.0 Beta on a MacBook Pro mid 2012 with macOS Sierra 10.12.6.

    Installation is very rapid

    Scanning lasts less than a dozen seconds with 50 Gb of data (I was used to windows where less data lasted 45/50 minutes). What are the categories of malware considered by the program for curiosity? Also protects against ramsomware?
    thank you
