[Getting rid of silly red dot]

Have downloaded and installed and silly red dot is still in place. I just think that Malwarebytes are the problem.

I already did this when you asked for it last time?

Thanks for that. It's strange that my iMac has been saying that there was a download, however, every time I checked there was nothing there. I checked on, "About my Mac" today and there was Sequoia waiting to be installed.

So, did that and then ran Malwarebytes and it said that there was a Malware on my Mac. It asked me to check notifications, which I did and that was already totally up to date and in place and I re-ran Malwarebytes and everything is perfect.

My feeling is that Malwarebytes do everything to get you to sign uo to a plan, which I do not need.

I have used Malwarebytes for many, many years, however, they are hassling a lot nowadays to upgrade,  which is silly as it is time consuming and negative.

Of course the red dot is still there and still unwanted.

No it just opens the Malwarebytes derop down menu saying open Malwarebytes etc., as it would if you click on the Black logo in the toolbar.

I have nothing that needs doing on my Malwarebytes, but since they have changed settings their end there is always a red dot on the toolbar icon on my Mac.

 

It's simply anyoing and I do not want it there.
