Download malwarebytes.

[Hijin25]

Greetings, I wanted to ask if it is normal that when I try to download malwarebytes free, rediriga me to a download page cnet.com.

 

I ask because my eset antivirus security smar marks the page as potentially unsafe.

Hello:

 

No, it is not normal, if you are trying to download from the official product download page.

(There are authorized 3rd-party sites, and cnet is one of them.  But you ought not necessarily to be redirected there....)

 

Where are you trying to download MBAM?

 

Here are the official links:

 

http://downloads.malwarebytes.org/file/mbam/

 

https://www.malwarebytes.org/mwb-intercept/

 

 

Please let us know if you need more help,

Thanks for your reply.

 

I enter the site

 

https://es.malwarebytes.org/

 

And that's when I choose to download it redirects me to download the program from cnet.com.

Hi:

 

I guess that is the Spanish site.

 

I do not get any redirection to cnet when I try it (in the US).

 

What happens when you try either of the links I provided???

[Hijin25]

The links provide me direct me to a direct download of the program.

 

Only travez of discharge from the site cnet.com directed me to download it from that medium.

The links provide me direct me to a direct download of the program.

 

It is only through the download from the site cnet.com directed me to download it from that medium.

 

Sorry for the double post, I can not edit the above.

OK, thanks.

 

We'll need to wait for a Malwarebytes staff member to respond to your original question about the cnet redirect from the Spanish site.

I'm not sure if that is "normal" or "expected".

 

{As a general rule, it's probably best to avoid downloads there. Although cnet is prohibited from bundling anything -- wrappers, PUPs or other unwanted software -- with MBAM, there are probably safer places to download the program and any other software....}

 

Thanks for reporting,

Sorry for the double post again, there is no editing option, and use the google translator as I fault the spelling.
