That is "coming soon" (though I can't give a specific date). We've managed to solve that problem with our Privacy app, and are in the process of making it possible to log in to activate the Mobile Security app as well.
And the latter when it is released in Italy
Actually I would be more interested in the only functions related to Safari (practically Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Safari iOS even if for a fee obviously)
It would not hurt a package consisting of Malwarebytes Premium + Malwarebytes Browser Guard working on MacOS, iOS, Windows, Android and present in all stores (also in Italy)
I can't put the VPN because 1blocker on iOS has activated an antitracker function for apps, called firewall, which uses a localhost VPN, and iOS does not allow your VPN profiles)

This came out from Kim Kamando:
https://www.komando.com/security-privacy/chrome-mac-malware/801121/?utm_medium=nl&utm_source=apple&utm_content=2021-08-02Has Malwarebytes got a handle on it?
I am not an expert but it seems to me only an article for advertising purposes trying to infuse fear

For what little I know the iCloud keychain and the credentials stored in Google Chrome are two entities completely disconnected

More than an article by Cybersecurity Experts, admitted and not granted that the news is real, it seems to me to be considered like Mackeeper's sponsorships (from both I keep very far away)
In addition, searching online, it appears that Kimberly Ann Komando conducts a radio broadcast on consumer technology not really the meeting of the maximum experts on the subject.
However, surely @treed or other staff members will be able to give greater and more precise information about it-

And for the problems I reported, are there instructions?

@gatortail I ask you this question, on the advice of Thomas.
There are sites that give problems (including this forum) at least in Monterey beta (but this is probably normal, I assume it is a defect of youth). I talked about it in this post with a couple of examples. Among these there is this forum and https://www.spider-mac.com (an Italian blog on Apple World with Zero Tracker and Zero Banner, unless you have suffered violations not yet known by the its manager (the list It is definitely not complete)
Do you have solutions in this regard (as well as to wait Monterey public version)?
However, I need to associate 1Blocker to your extension
For protection against Malware / PUP / Scam, MWB is phenomenal, for Advertising and Cookies, there is still a lot to do (even in the versions of Firefox and presume Chrome - the latter ever tried because I prefer to use as little as possible Big G products)QuoteA typical example follows:
At least for my experience, there are too many not blocked ads, besides the fact that some sites (at least in Italy) with cookies/tracking are deadly and 1blockers allows you to block them
example, which I know personally, is the website https://www.ecodelchisone.it - one of our local weekly newspapers, for which I was obliged to request, to the support of 1Blocker, to create custom rules in order to block the requests from advertising circuits - specifically, otherwise, to disable all choices, one by one (it does not have the reject all button), including those of legitimate interest - what is legitimate in tracking / monitoring users, someone should explain it to me - it takes 2/3 minutes each time; can you do something about it? I invite you to check it out, if you have time.
Thanks in advance for your support and the answer you give me

Ok thanks to the question @gatortail

Perhaps the option 2) would be the best but, as you said, it would become frustrating.
I wonder why, if such data is not shared, this warning is displayed
Surely I consider it essential to use option 1) or even better disable blocks on the bank's website from Safari
For some sites it is necessary to disable the block of the Safari content, it is not enough to intervene on extensions (better to avoid, as far as possible, this type of websites - an example that I know personally is https://tecnologia.libero.it which It gives problems with all the Ad-Blockers, in addition to providing not always correct news - in the past even on MWB as I reported to you via PM)

@treed I'm waiting for your clarifications
Thanks

Seeing this screenshot
For sensitive sites (eg Home Banking, Revenue Agency, Social Security), how is it preferable to set the extension between these three possibilities for my privacy?
- Insert these websites into the Allow List in the extension
- set NO on the content block for these websites
- Set up REJECT in the specific section of the extension section for these websites
Thanks
-
Some websites give problems, but for the most part everything is ok.
Happens, at least in my case, only with the beta of Monterey (third public beta) while with Big Sur everything is ok
Between these:
https://forums.malwarebytes.com
But there are also others, but they are sporadic cases
The most common mistake is that of the screenshot below, but there are also slow down
With the forum I had publication problems (three identical posts were created, two asked the removal)- It is clearly resoluable to put them in the ALLOW LIST into the Extension Setting
- At least in my case it is useless to set up REJECT for those sites in the MALWAREBYTES BROWSER GUARD SETTING in the Extensions section of the WEBSITE TAB into the Safari preferences website
- I didn't do evidence with setting NO into CONTENT BLOCK section in the Website Tab in Safari preferences
Any changes to the settings concern only the history / cookies; However, we have to recharge the page more

I would like to have the possibility to eliminate the rows from the list of the rows "The user has deleted # elements" what currently possible only by selecting a single category
Two possible solutions
1) Give the possibility to view all types of reports except that
2) Make the curtain of the choice of report types with check-boxes that give the ability to choose two or more categoriesIt is a type of report not present on Windows (his lack is one of the things I appreciate more on the MS system)

I only noticed it today, and I can't tell if it is a bug or both due to a huge improvement of the scanning engine
In my Mac the scan normally lasted from 3 to 5 seconds
With the new Beta he cannot even reach a second. The scanned file number is normal but time marks 0 seconds to the end

Installed 2 hours ago on Monterey 1^ Public Beta on MacBook Air M1 - 16GB Unified Memory - 256 SSD
- Performed Manual Scan
- Tested restart of the Mac
- Performed Manual Scan
- Set, ad hoc, scheduled scan to take a test
No problem encountered
Improvements I found
- solved problem display in Italian of the sub-cards of the hardware history I had reported days ago SURE THERE IS A GRAPHIC PROBLEM WITH THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE VERSION
- solved problem reported in the past that caused a long scan 10 times the time in the event were present 1 or more extensions in Firefox: no longer occurs, the times are the same is that Firefox is not installed, and that is installed and either installed with Malwarebytes Browser Guard (other extensions I do not use them if not rarely) Scan times that rise with Malwarebytes Browser Guard for Firefox (This however I can't say if it has already been solved first because since then I never had firefox installed if not sporadically and I no longer used the extension - use only safari and firefox I use it only for those sites that do not accept the Mac and in Italy are several))
Good job
Thanks to @treed and to all the staff of the developers

As far as I know, MWB protects against all active threats for macOS.
Historically the ransomware for macOS have been 4 at least according to when written in macOS Malware Encyclopedia (I can't tell you if 100% reliable, this can tell you only Thomas)
I, personally use Malwarebytes for macOS since it was still called Adware Medic (and was developed by @treed) and I passed, obviously, with him, under the roof of Malwarebytes (first with the free version and then, just available, with the premium one who added many functions over time - and others will be added, just give it time) and so far since I use the Mac (I am 8 years in November) I have never had any problem: I can only advise you to try it (14 days free trial of the full version and then see). I'm practically sure you won't be disappointed
I hope I clarified the ideas
Good evening

I can assure you that 100% of Mac users have a NetBIOS Name displayed in the Network settings Advanced WINS tab.
I confirm what was said by Al.
My situation is the same regarding the WINS screen, and all the Mac users I know, not a lot to tell the truth, are like that.It is likely that there has been a misunderstanding (I am not in English mother tongue, and in the subject rasented as soon as enough - it was my worst grain at school)
I wanted to indicate that my situation was that indicated by Al, not that of the author of the first post (with the name present on the screen, I apologize if I expressed myself unclear).
I hope to have clarified; My mastery of the English language is almost 0 and use Google Translate every time

My situation is the same regarding the WINS screen, and all the Mac users I know, not a lot to tell the truth, are like that.Having said that, I would just like to give, if I can, a suggestion, for what is useless, because everything is except an expert in corporate network configurations (or composed of several different operating systems) or Apple MDM (I always worked only on small LANs, on Windows, not consisting of a domain)
Isn't that all these problems came to create because there is some conflict on the fact that two antimalware (Looking into the network what webroot is, of which I ignored the existence, it seems to me a product of the same class of malwarebytes business) in real time are running? From what I know it is never a good thing; Better to choose one, of which you trust most; Even in the case of Malwarebytes there are corporate solutions (I am neither a shareholder nor a staff member, but only a user who is very well with these products, even if only consumer)
However, keep present, for what little I know, that if you try to remove system components, as already mentioned by Al , at least from Catalina, the OS is in a read-only partition

Is there a way to install this on the new MacOS Monterey Beta? I fail the version check at installation.
Also, like you, I'm testing the beta of Monterey (which I did every year - excluding Big Sur because the old Mac was not compatible), beta that compared to the past few years is particularly stable.
I can tell you, almost with certainty that, unless @treed change idea, you will have to do without it until the availability of a beta who, indicatively, was released in the second half of August (being the particularly stable beta of Monterey, I hope that @treed decides to release it first (at least in beta)

I've reproduced the app launch issue on an Intel MBP so it is unrelated to M1 compatibility. There instead seems to be a compatibility issue with network Time Machine backups since the issue occurred on both machines only when a backup is running.
As far as I know, Malwarebytes (at least the Mac version) does not have, at least still, a web protection and therefore should not affect network traffic.
Personally I don't use Time Machine, and therefore I cannot make checks, (much less wireless) as I back up of the important data in duplicate on large pendrive (the data is the only thing that interests me because in case of problems I always have Favorite to make a clean installation of both the OS and the apps - but this is obviously a personal choice)
By now, since the native M1 version has been released, even the problems I had reported are almost completely disappeared, except for short very much sporadic raids (mostly with the release of the new update

New Feedback
What I see is different from what you posted above. The header of the tabs does not appear correct
SURE THERE IS A GRAPHIC PROBLEM WITH THE ITALIAN LANGUAGE VERSION

I received the email warning that I was not at home
As soon as I got back I proceeded to install the beta
My feedback
The EXCESSIVE CONSUMPTION reappeared in the battery icon menu (it was a few days after the release of 4.10 that it did not appear)
In the time of writing this post (longer, because in my case it must be set correctly in Italian and then translated with Google Translator because English has never been my strong point at school, indeed perhaps the weakest point) the alert has come and gone several times. We will see how it will behave in the next few days.
In this version the error that still required the installation of Rosetta2 reported by @Xauma95 in this post?
I will definitely not put MacKeeper on the Allow List (not even dead 😂)
But MacKeeper can't be blocked regardless
(any aware Mac user would never do that, but newbies take risks)

Staff members have written several times that, from the forum, they do not have access to the licensing system and that therefore a support ticket must be opened at the following link
Response times (especially now in times of pandemics) are 5 to 7 working days
-
If you have an account in your my.malwarebytes.com user area (if you don't have it, here are the instructions to create it and add the licenses to it) you can log in and deactivate one or more licenses and so you should be able to activate them on your new Macs
It normally works and is the advice that several staff members (not just the Mac area) normally recommend if these types of problems occur
I hope I was helpful
Good day

Thanks a lot @gonzo
Setting question
in Safari
Posted
It's what I did for the sites that give problems
For those defined sensitive, I preferred to exclude them from the extensions
