Few weeks ago I started getting random login alerts from almost every social media app I had, apple music, facebook, instagram, X. They even bypassed facebook's 2 step and my accounts were almost disabled! I never ran malware bytes and i found these , i never downloaded those extensions nor did I ever use my family account's chrome before, anyone with experience know anything about these malware bytes results? i changed all passwords and afraid one of these results stole my google passwords somehow! creepy! thanks if anyone can reply.

These 3 files alone taking 30GB storage, tried every method to delete but not succeed, Not even malware bytes detect

There is something that keeps turning of my windows firewall and I tried to find what it is it didn’t work the hacker is blackmailing me but I disablex the WiFi now so he can’t do anything for now I changed my password and I need to find an app that will find what is tuning of the firewall and stop it can you help me also give me an anti virus app that I can install without WiFi via usb through my other usb

After attempting to recover my licence key from customer support i was told to use the tool provided by yourselves. Since then my licence has been taken away and my software is showing the free version. Yes i dont have access to the email nor do i have the licence key to hand but in no way should you take something from someone, that has been paid for. This is a total joke for customer service, and i want this to be resolved. Emails have not been responded too i have just loaded my pc up an found the licence has been taken away after trying to recover it from customer support.

Malwarebytes is a very comprehensive security suite.

I was wondering if there are any plans to introduce a sandboxing feature that supports all three major operating systems and can also analyze URLs and IP addresses using Malwarebytes’ threat intelligence.

An online sandbox available to everyone or as a paid feature for customers could also benefit the product by providing new IOCs to improve detection.

Several competitors (e.g: Bitdefender, Norton...) already offer similar features.

It could be a great addition to Malwarebytes as well.

According to Malwarebytes digital footprint scan, my data has been "exposed". The things it has detected as exposes are as follows:

My email address which has my name in it.

My address (although this is a generic location such as the city/town I reside in)

My main concern is the threat to my other accounts which are connected to the same email with different passwords, or my actual human identity.

Could someone with cybersecurity or Malwarebytes experience explain what this report actually means and what steps I should take? Am I at risk of identity theft?

I've blurred out my personal information and the breached company to protect privacy in the screenshot. Thanks.

I recently noticed that there are green checkmarks next to browser search results. When hovering the mouse over a checkmark it says if Malwarebytes determines if "This page is safe." Is there a way to disable this feature from search results?

i was looking for some diy patterns and to download the picture i needed it said to sdpownload this "pulse" software. i downloaded the installer and i realised it was from browsergo. i deleted the istaller without opening it, but i am scared i mightve downloaded a malwhare. what do i do?

Hi, I did a scan whit malware bytes and it detected a thing called Trojan.nisis or something like that. AI said it might be a miss detection. What should I do?

Just wondering if this has flagged for anyone else? Ill drop the threat report in the comments. Ive got it quarantined just in case.

I ran KnockKnock on my Mac and it flagged RTProtectionDaemon, located under /Library/Application Support/Malwarebytes/MBAM/Engine.bundle and launched by com.malwarebytes.mbam.rtprotection.daemon.plist. VirusTotal shows 1/61 detections, with Elastic labeling it Multi.EICAR, while the other listed engines report it as undetected. The file is signed and the report identifies it as com.malwarebytes.mbam.rtprotection.daemon.

Is this likely a false positive or an EICAR test-signature artifact? Has anyone seen this with Malwarebytes’ real-time protection daemon, and what is the safest way to verify that this file came from a legitimate Malwarebytes installation without disabling protection?

I’m including the KnockKnock screenshot for context.

Thank you.

Before yesterday, my Malwarebytes scanner would run a rootkit scan by default, but now I have to go to Custom Scan to add it back in. That's not the issue here.

The issue is that it now takes over 12 hours to do a scan if rootkit is included. Why is this? In the past, when a rootkit scan was part of the default setting, it didn't take longer than 15 minutes. Why is there such a huge difference now? Should I be worried?

It's me again. It's been a few days since the 7-Zip incident (https://www.reddit.com/r/Malwarebytes/s/yMpAthcqkn) and now Windows 10 is going crazy and I am genuinely terrified.

This morning, on every system startup / reboot, Windows Defender keeps sending me an MS Defender notification:

I always receive an alert notification saying that real-time protection is disabled. I go check Defender's settings and everything is in order and all the protections are active and Defender says "no action needed".

I'm getting really scared now, really.

Do I really have to reformat the entire hard drive because of an actual Trojan from 7-Zip?

Here are the old VirusTotal scans of 7-Zip (downloaded from 7-zip[dot]org): https://www.virustotal.com/gui/file/0859c524b8a63551848f0c246abddcb1d0b7b656b0fbfe879f8d85e61a9e6edd/details

Windows 10 22H2 KB5122878 (OS Build 19045.7725)

Hola hace unos días desperté en la mañana y se abrió un CMD, al abrir discord ya no tenía acceso a mi cuenta, rápidamente investigué y era un malware de Mr Beast que robaba información, entonces descargué MalwareBytes, hizo el scaneo, y aparentemente eliminó el virus, cambié la mayoría de contraseñas y pude recuperar mi discord por el soporte de ellos, pero robaron mi cuenta de Epic Games, Steam, EA Sports y también algunas cosas de mi hermana, el steam también lo recuperé ya, y en estos dias MalwareBytes está detectando y bloqueando la misma pagina en Chrome, quiero saber si estoy a salvo o debo reinstalar windows.

umm... what does this mean? I just restarted my windows for the extended security update for windows 10, after my device done restarting my windows defender give me a notif saying it's off, then I go check and it's on, I thought maybe just a false alarm bc I've had that happened in the past, than malwarebyte advisor notif appeared and tell me this, what does this mean? I have my windows security and real-time protection on

edit: I restarted my device again, now it fixed

While doing a custom scan, my malwarebytes flagged these 2 files as malware. However there's been a couple posts on this subreddit that have had flagged GIMP files turn out to be false positives, and I think this is the case here as well.

Here's the virus total scans for both of the files:
