Serious Discussion Can we discuss how much Malwarebytes is improving lately?

I’ve been comparing Malwarebytes with other antivirus programs, including AVG, and I’ve noticed that Malwarebytes is catching threats that AVG sometimes misses in testing. That’s really impressive, especially since it seems to respond to new threats very quickly.

Unfortunately, I am no longer able to use it in the Middle East.

• Iran
• North Korea
• Syria
• Cuba

These sanctions prohibit many U.S. companies from selling or distributing software there.

I believe that there are many more countries on the list than just these four.

Category	Example countries
Sanctioned / blocked	Iran, North Korea, Syria, Cuba
Restricted regions	Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk

Well, the malware removal forums do use MalwawreBytes sometimes. I guess it depends on the infection.

Malwarebytes has a setting, "Always register Malwarebytes in the Windows Security Center". As long as that is turned OFF, you can use MB and Microsoft Defender AT THE SAME TIME! I even used MB and Norton 360 together for quite some time but I also had to add exclusions to both programs. With Microsoft Defender and MB, you do not have to add any exclusions anywhere, just make sure that setting on MB is disabled.
