Avira free and Norton Internet Security don't want Malwarebytes?

[Jahewi]

Hi there,

A few days ago, i installed Avira Antivirus Free 2013 on a PC on wich Malwarebytes Free already was installed.

During the installation of Avira, i was strongly recommended to remove Malwarebytes before continuing the installation ...

I have posted this issue in the Dutch Security-forum Nucia.eu link (in Dutch)

And just now, i saw a question on the Dutch security-forum Nucia.eu about Norton Internet Security conflicting with Malwarebytes.

See this link (in Dutch)

Ofcourse i won't uninstall Malwarebytes or advice anyone to do so

Is Malwarebytes aware is these issues?

rgds,

Yes there are a few vendors that do force you to remove ANY other security software not just MBAM before they will allow you to install their software. Once you've installed their software you can then go ahead and install MBAM and setup exclusions to allow both programs to work together.

Thank you for clearing that up.

I'll certainly keep that in mind.
