  1. Really appreciate you taking the time to respond. I think it would be a good feature to add. In the meantime, I'll do it singularly. The information I collect on the sites detected adds to my personal watch list. Most of the clients I support have some sort of knowledge, physical, or habitual handicap that keeps MWB. Then there are some that just don't pay attention. Some of the sites MWB detects I use on one of my test machines with/without MWB to see these parasites in action. It's amazing to me the ideology of how bad bad can get.Thanks again for the info. I look forward to using the new export tool. TekTrax
  2. I find myself needing to have a full exported list of "Detection History". When I suspect a user of intentionally browsing in "the badlands", I find it's not quick nor informative enough to view only the Quarantined Files or any other logging system. MWB's Detection History is valuable. Single detection export is the only option I've found so far. I checked the user manual, internet search, and with a couple colleagues; nothing on Malwarebytes entire Detection History exported to a single file. At this point I'm not aware of any other option but to select each listing one at a time, copy to the clipboard and paste the results into a single txt file. If there's a way to bulk export the Detection History List to a single file, I'm all ears. Thanks
  3. I appreciate your prompt response. MSP yes. Sites full of MWBP... not exactly but I wished it were. I'm an elder maverick 70+ Dos Dog still peckin keys. Currently I have a 100 computer ceiling and approaching that rather quickly, taking care of two user levels; single consumers and a couple businesses. Mostly elderly, relatives, some special need vets, and especially many who cannot afford such services for various reasons most with medical problems that require computers for medical and family communications, financial control, researching their needs, and just plain entertainment. All the computers I maintain I controlled from component level repair/builds/hardware mods to OS maintenance/software and the educational use of it. Most are maintained free of charge with free security for as long as the need is realistic and of course for as long as I'm able. I also service some businesses; not many but enough that their contributions pay for that which cannot be freely given. In every case I use Malwarebytes Premium. What licenses I don't provide, they're purchased by the user at my recommendation but I have control of it. I also take care of 2 churches... one in my hometown and one in Nashville... about 15 machines between the two. I didn't mean to suggest that MWB be uninstalled, rather downgraded to the free version with the license deleted from cache. As I understood it, once a device is removed, it's immediately downgraded on the target computer but the license remains in cache thus creating the reactivation circumstance. Permanent downgrading would have allowed the user to purchaser their own license if they chose and reactivate without reinstalling, leave it as is, or simply uninstall it themselves. In any case, permanent deactivation without uninstallation would be a wonderful choice in my case and of course, I can remote/reactivate the license or activate it with a new one if needed. As for OneView, the key problem here is business "cloud" based. I'm not a business. I'm seriously retired. If I were a younger man in today's business world, OV would be a great choice but in my current situation, for those I take care of, I have to consider what are the results from my dropping out of the picture unexpectedly. I think it best I remain simpler, less cost, fewer machines, and well, you get the picture. I sure you're also aware of the reverse. I have several that simply die off and the machines might disappear for a while and reappear somewhere else; another reason for the managed device downgrading. In the meantime, although my name is not associated with most of the MWB installations I'm responsible for, and even if the modification I suggest never occurs, MWB is still top dog in my book and I'm enjoying studying and using the beta. I have to tell you of one guy before I go. He's an elder; retired early in life via damage to his body from being hit by a 45 mph large RV while he was walking across the pit median at a Nascar event. He's mobility is seriously reduced; slow to move and with eyesight bad enough that 3 browsers on his laptop are VGA'd to a 27" LED all zoomed to 300%+. At this mag, he'll search out some of the most ridiculous subjects for entertainment and you know what happens when you click on a quarter of the page when a trick prompt is somewhere else unseen. Yep... Ransomeware and just about every threat trick known to hackers plus a few more I'd never seen before. Prior to Malwarebytes, he was using the paid AVGs, Avast, McAfee, and a couple others and they kept me busy wearing my Clone restorations out. Since Malwarebytes Premium and some custom settings, I still get calls that he's being hacked but they're more browser threat than onboard problem. On his laptop, MWB keeps a list of problems prevented a mile long but I sleep better knowing that the next call I get from him is something simple like he spilled jelly and milk all across his keyboard. Much better. Thanks again for the quick response. Tektrax / USA / TN
  4. Sorry, should have said, "Reduction in the number of Available devices listed".....
  5. (Concerning Remote Servicing Computers that use MWB Premium with a single multiple device key) - I've come across several instances where it would be necessary when a device is removed from an accounts "Managed Devices List", it is also permanently deactivated at the target device rather than the target device MWB installation reactivating itself on its next restart. This permanent deactivation should only be reactivated via manual reactivation by the original owner (as in remote provider/servicer), or by the purchase of new activation key either by the controller or the user of the device. This prevents instances where a target device shows up in the managed device list causing a reduction in the number of devices listed, or an "exceeded device limit". The causes for permanent deactivation in this manor are numerous from a remote servicing standpoint. Some are related to theft, unauthorized clone or system restorations, deactivation at the request of the original user, unauthorized uninstallation/reinstallations, and unauthorized use of the key found in the account information; just to name a few. I would be extremely interested in your take on this and if this has already been done and I've missed notification and/or documentation, I'd appreciate knowing where this information is. Thanks for all your unending and good works. TektTrax
