[QUOTE="TheBlueCreeper512, post: 896952, member: 87607"] The future never looked good for iOBit especially after that Malwarebytes debacle... I think like some people here, that Microsoft should be more aggressive about PUPs, but not go so far as to block every single app that Microsoft doesn't like, there should be a balance, and that balance is difficult to achieve, because no matter what you do, which direction you choose to go down, there always will be people criticizing your decisions, like if Defender starts detecting Avast Antivirus as a PUP, some people will think that this is a good move by Microsoft, not only was Avast bundling software but the company itself is very shady. And then there is the people that are at the complete opposite of the spectrum, maybe they use or likeAvast AV and they don't Defender to flag it. So I think personally that Microsoft is starting go down the right path with Defender and PUP protection. [/QUOTE]
