Latest Version of Malwarebytes

Malwarebytes for Windows v4.5.20.230 - CU 1.0.1868 has been released. (12-January-2023)

Announcement: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topi...omment=1549295

Features and improvements:

• Security Advisor notifications - Customizable notification that helps you stay secure by informing you when Security Advisor finds an issue that requires your attention. Notifications are enabled by default and can be disabled or re-enabled from the Notification tab in the Settings menu.
• Tray icon - Primary click on the tray icon now launches the UI or brings it into focus. Previously, a primary click opened the tray menu, which was redundant since a secondary click does the same operation.
• Uninstalls - Added guidance and updated our KB article for users who are looking to use Malwarebytes in conjunction with other security products.

Issues fixed:

• Product or OS functionality can be broken by blocking MS-signed not protected files (limited circumstances).
• Incorrect dashboard notifications showing for Premium users.
• The security news feed is not changing.
• Buy now options shown in Security Advisor for Premium users.

Hmm...

Combined with my current AV/FW, I really don't see an real advantage to pay for Premium.

FWIW.

I have a lifetime licence from way back when they did those.

I have 4 lifetime licenses and also use Malwarebytes Browser Guard which is a free add-on which blocks bad stuff in the browser.

Is the browser Guard needed? MB itself has Web Protection.

It is probably best on systems that don't have Malwarebytes Premium but works fine with Premium also.
I believe in safety, I use a belt and suspenders

Check it out.

I have tried it in the past and it didn't seen to give anything extra so when I had a clear out of browser extensions it went.
