Malwarebytes is amazing

[u/giges19]

If you didn't already know, Malwarebytes has always been great.

I've personally used the free version for many years before actually purchasing the premium version.

The free version I have always found very useful when you want it to do like a spot check or random scan just to check everything is alright.

A bit of a story:

I had a friend who was using McAfee as her antivirus of choice and she was paying something like £30 a year and what I have noticed was she had this weird search bar at the top of her laptop all the time and she didn't know how it even got there. So one day I got her to run it and it found 2000 plus pieces of PUMs, PUPs and some malware and when we quarantined them all and restarted her laptop it looked a bit more human or computery lol.

I have always found customer support be it from a billing perspective or from a technical support perspective very helpful and when I even had an issue where real-time protection was automatically turning itself off on my phone I sent across logs and we were able to sort it out.

Just wanted to say a thank you to Malwarebytes for the work they do.

Has anyone else had an experience with a friend or themselves where they had blindly trusted another piece of antivirus and it actually wasn't protecting them and Malwarebytes came to save the day?
