The main selling point for me was the original purpose I got it for which was to scan my computer and remove the malware which was found surprisingly a lot (I'm sort of embarrassed to say.). Additionally, if you are more like me and practically lives on computers it is still great because you also have options to be more involved in its advanced operating settings as well if you choose (if you don't want to do that then you can just leave all the options on default which are all immediately set to the generally recommended settings).Īs for the quality of the protection and antivirus capabilities, it is highly effective based on my experience so far.

If you are not the most computer-savvy person and looking for something that appears simple to use and largely manages itself then Malwarebytes is great. Malwarebytes is easy to use and appears to be very well-designed all-around with many impressive features even when compared to top well-known brands. By the way, this company has no phone number to call and actually speak to a real person. I was told it would take 2 - 7 days and today is 2/23/23, 41 days later, and after many emails and jumping through hoops I still haven't received it. And guess what? Voila, I was on the internet again. Yet, after my phone calls I decided just for laughs to uninstall the VPN. I had checked 3 or 4 times to be certain the VPN wasn't on, and that's what it said each time. So I spent an hour and a half on a couple of phone calls with my cable company and we couldn't figure out the problem, so an appointment was made for a tech to come to my house.

The final straw was when I got kicked off the internet and the VPN shut itself off and no matter what I did I couldn't get back on the internet. Sometimes it would kick me off the internet while I was in the middle of something. Sometimes it would turn itself off without me even knowing.
