[QUOTE="AMACL, post: 1894752, member: 298303"] Hi, Jumping in here because I read the interesting :) discussion about needing or not needing virus protection on Apple systems (featured in the latest newsletter), which raises a question for me, but it was closed for further discussion, no doubt because of its interesting nature... So here is my question : In both that thread and this one, you experts recommend getting rid of Malwarebytes. It's not the first time you have done so, and I have gotten the message : that the program you recommended a few years ago (2019 to be precise) is no longer good. Things happen. What impressed me was that not only is Malwarebytes no longer useful, but it is bloated and can actually do harm, if only by slowing down one's system. We don't want that. I let my Malwarebytes Premium subscription renew about a month ago :confused: so I'll be out 50€ but I can live with that. But -➡➡ [B]What is the right way to get rid of Malwarebytes?[/B] I just upgraded to Big Sur on my 2019 Retina iMac 21.5" as well as on my 2017 Retina Macbook 12". thanks for your intelligence. I really enjoyed reading that thread in the newsletter ! Ann [/QUOTE]
