Advice Request Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit- Should I use it?

[Evjl's Rain]

I have Kaspersky IS 2016 (c) + voodooshield 3 beta in my system. Should I install MBAE free/pro?

Could anyone tell me a convincing reason that I should consider this product? Beause of the current configuration, I feel like to don't really need it

Thank you

KIS has an anti exploit integrated : Automatic Exploit Prevention

There's your answer.

Primary solution: Update your programs, let your current AV protect you.

MBAE isn't a bad product, however your surfing will be depends if you will be indeed struck on an exploit page.

Though the techniques used by Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit might be complimentary to Kaspersky's Automatic Exploit Prevention. It seems that as it has already been answered you don't need them both on your PC.

I am a MB company supporter but if you feel save with KIS + its Exploit protection is good. I would be torn either not using MBAE or disabling Kaspersky's AE.

For me it's just impossible to run PC without MBAE. MBAE is a prominent product. Ease of use, no bugs, strong protection are appealing.

Your PC doesn't run without MBAE installed? That seems like an issue... /s

MBAE is not needed with KIS anti-exploit, and especially not needed with VS.

LoOOL !

I voted NO, I think your common sense and Kapersky will do the trick.

KIS already has exploit protection; MBAE would be duplication of protection.

That being said, I would check out how good KIS' anti-exploit actually is... from what I remember it is decent.

As you got KIS(Automatic exploit prevention) and Voodooshield, I vote "No" but still all depends on your surfing and I if you want another layer, don't see any problem in adding MBAE its really up to you.

If your worried with browser exploit attack, most I encountered are focus on IE using Chrome/Firefox w/ ad-block, and only going to well known site chances of encountering an exploit is slim.

I think he meant that he would never run his computer without MBAE. (Neither would me.)

IMO Voodlesheild is phenomenal but I personally would always reccomend adding something just for protection in case it is light. Which MBAE is.

Actually I wrote "For me it's just impossible to run PC without MBAE." So that's an issue of me not PC.

Yes, I meant this. I like that MBAE runs smoothly on any PC I where installed it.

I see no reason to use Voodooshield with Kaspersky. Can you explain what VS adds to KIS? Maybe I miss something in VS.

Now I have Comodo FW + MBAE. I use CFW with HIPS and AutoSandbox on. This protection is rather close to KIS. What would VS add to CFW?

Thank you.

You don't need to use MBAE. But if you want to, then why not? There are many Kaspersky users who use them together without noticeable problems.

very roughly speaking, VS would be equivalent to auto-sandbox in comodo, or TAM in kaspersky.
But VS is much easier to configure and use than either of the above. Someone who doesn't like headaches should use VS instead of them.
which is most effective? Probably depends on how well you configured your software and how wisely you use it, but that is just my IMHO.

I love VS. It will scan everything with it's VoodooAI engine and virustotal, then ask you to decide to run or not to run the program or components. You can try it

Actually I regularly try it since the dawn of its development. VS is being developed in huge steps. Now it can be configured for as novice as expertise users. I'm of high opinion about this reliable and effective app.
