![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the case of c|net, it wraps legitimate software in proprietary adware-laden installers. You tend to get adware from legitimate sources like c|net. To the best of my knowledge, adware is technically not malware-except that it is. Nonetheless, I'm itching to try it out, and I'll definitely update this thread with my opinion of the software, if I get any calls about an infected Mac - though that's highly unlikely to happen any time soon.Īny reviews or personal experiences that you can offer would be most helpful!Ĭlick to expand.You are correct that MalwareBytes for Mac is the new name of AdwareMedic. I appreciate it hasn't been out for long, so feedback may be limited. Does it get rid of PUPs like MacKeeper or will they still have to be manually removed? Is it a case of you just run a full scan and it fixes everything (as there are far less points of infection to scan for on OS X), or in your experience are there some things it doesn't pick up? Does MalwareBytes for Mac pick up both Windows & Mac infections? It looks like AdwareMedic has now joined the MalwareBytes family so that's immediately promising. Normally malware issues on OS X are few and far between (well, compared to the myriad of issues we get on Windows computers), and in each instance we run Avast & AdwareMedic which always seems to get rid of any infections. So it looks like MalwareBytes for Mac has been released and we're in two minds whether to update our OS X image with this software. I hope this thread finds you in jolly spirits. ![]()
