[QUOTE="daledoc1, post: 446803, member: 44541"] Hi, [USER=38832]@upnorth[/USER]: I'm not a malware expert. I don't work for Malwarebytes (or their marketing department). I don't craft their resource materials. So, I am neither qualified nor authorized to debate matters. Nor do I care to do so. I will however point to [URL='https://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?/topic/174625-malwarebytes-fail-to-detect-and-remove-12-worms/#entry998994'][B]THIS REPLY[/B][/URL] to the related post over at the MBAM forum, by a qualified, experienced malware expert. He pointed out: I guess it will be frustrating for all involved to debate the finer points of wording in Malwarebytes marketing or other materials, as well as the semantics.:( The video test in this thread -- as I understand it from the replies here and elsewhere -- provides insufficient information to make firm conclusions about the specimens that were tested and the conditions of the test. It's always the user's choice which security software applications to install and run on one's systems. And I don't have any vested interest in either defending or bashing MBAM. But to "test" MBAM (or any other security product) against a type of malware it specifically does not target will result in predictable outcome. Cheers, P.S. There is a "Comments and Suggestions" section of the MBAM forum [B][URL='https://forums.malwarebytes.org/index.php?/forum/12-malwarebytes-anti-malware/']here[/URL][/B] reserved for feedback about the product, the forum or other company materials and products. The staff members responsible for writing the KB articles, marketing blurbs and other content would be more likely to see and respond to your helpful feedback there, rather than here. <just saying>:) [/QUOTE]
