I'm done

Just one last post.  I've uninstalled Malwarebytes 2.x from 4 computers.  I'm advising friends and relatives that I maintain computers for to do the same. 

It became apparent that not only was Malwarebytes not going to fix the problems with 2.x, they seem incapable of fixing 3.x, so I'm through.

The same has happened with other software, of course.  The one that comes to mind first is Acronis.  I had used them for several years for imaging but they started ignoring the imaging part and focusing on add ons and bloat.  I finally uninstalled it and went to Macrium.  They do imaging, only........and they do it just about better than anyone else. 

I felt the same way about Malwarebytes for a number of years.  Sad to say, but I think you've forgotten your mission.  I don't have a replacement yet, but at least my computer works, all my software works, and I'm not fighting with Malwarebytes, trying to make it work.

It was a great ride and really, I wish everyone well.

Good Luck!  - Larry

Have a look at Emsisoft AntiMalware - I think you might be pleasantly surprised. I too moved from Malwarebytes and after doing lots of searching stumbled on Emsisoft.

Friend nikhils..............can you please just read your own forum?  Everything I could tell you is listed here over and over again, and frankly, I'm just not interested anymore.
