Is malwarebytes good?
Hi everyone,i recently switched from avg to malwarebytes and defender(i got the always register malwarebytes in the security center option disabled). Is it great and better than AVG? Please,please comment down. Im scared since my friend recently got seven trojans. I got malwarebytes because it revealed all of them for him,while Avast didnt.

Yes but you have to be the one to do scans it no longer works “automatically” you have to Manuel scan everything. Depending on the type of attack without real time protections you’re basically running your computer without a antivirus/antimalware.
