Hello everyone so for the past few months I have been using Goodsearch for giving money to certain places I like and it says a purchase from Malwarebytes will give that organization 15% of the purchase. How am I able to clarify that the amount would be donated?

When in doubt just don't do it is my motto.!:eek: I have used MBAM & it did not catch anything. Adwcleaner caught the nastys on my PC & removed them. It was a real shocker to me. For the most part MBAM does a fair job though.:)

Wikipedia is not always the best source, but Goodsearch does seem to be legitimate, and they are powered by Yahoo. With this information, you can assume that all 15% of the price that you pay will go to cause of your choice.

ie. The sale for MBAM Premium at $24.95, $3.74 will be donated to your choice of charitable organization from their list.

That may be true for you but I have been very happy with Malwarebytes Anti malware and it isn't going to change anytime soon.

MBAM is a decent program & if its working for you OK, I would stick with it. It does detect certain things but, like an antivirus program some things will pass under the Radar from my experience.!:)
