1211855 2011-06-25 02:36:00 Hi all.

Just updated Malwarebytes to do a scan and found out it now has real-time protection Trial = 0 Purchase = $40

Questions ... Is there any known conflict with MSE ? Is it worth the $40 to purchase once the trial runs out ?

1211856 2011-06-25 05:16:00 I would not recommend running 2 realtime scanning applications Greven (91)
1211857 2011-06-25 05:56:00 I normally wouldn't .. but isn't MSE AV only and MB for Malware only ? ... hence my question :) SP8's (9836)

1211859 2011-06-25 06:05:00 I run MSE and Malwarebytes (with the enabled protection module) with no issues.

See malwarebytes.org

1211860 2011-06-25 08:53:00 MSE does everything, but MalwareBytes does a better job of detecting the fake anti-virus apps that are the most common source of infection right now. I have trialed malwarebytes pro on a few computers & found it to have a serious detrimental effect on the speed of the computers when running with another anti-virus app.

Admittedly they were all 4 - 5 year old computers (Southlanders don't like upgrading) but they ran fine with only one real time scanner installed.

I Use malwarebytes and bitdefender same Time and both work perfectly.

1211863 2011-06-27 00:41:00 Why do these companies differentiate between

Viruses and Trojans ?

Surely they are similar and equally bad ?

1211864 2011-06-27 00:57:00 If you get infected by a trojan, you can get hacked. Since, most have backdoors. So, trojans would be worse. And most, can steal information Speedy Gonzales (78)
