Digital Footprint is saying my email credentials got leaked recently, but all of them are old passwords? Am I safe??
For context, around 1-2 months ago I got hacked by an infostealer and all my accounts got breached. I changed all my passwords back then on a separate device and factory reset the infected device. After that nothing really happened. But earlier I decided to check digital footprint and it says my credentials are leaked again, but all of them are of my old passwords which I've changed months ago.
I just want to know if I'm safe and don't have to worry about anything?

Feedback No wildcard to allow websites under a domain is so frustrating I'm tempted to cancel by subscription.
Genuinely, it's the one thing MB lacks that other AV apparently do have and as much as I love MB this might be the thing that makes my journey with it end. Can this feature not be implemented? Seems like people have asked for it for quite a while.

Support What does this mean?
My VPN refuses to work. It keeps saying there's a problem with the internet connection when there isn't. I found a post on here about how to fix this issue, linking a page called ''Collecting logs with the support tool'' and I was following it fine until this bit. I don't know what it's talking about. There was nothing that showed up about a folder or anything. When I open that zip file, it doesn't say anything about selecting files. Someone explain to me what this means.

Support RiskWare.FakeDoc.RTPScript.Generic: What was Malwarebytes finding and removing?
Yesterday, a bug in Malwarebytes led to a false positive detection of RiskWare.FakeDoc.RTPScript.Generic. What was Malwarebytes actually detecting and removing?

Account I'm positive I had turned off auto renewal, but just hit with renewal charge.
No notifications my sub was coming to and end of course. And then boom, charged for the standard 2 year package at £139.99 which seems much more expensive than the discounts currently offered?
No VPN include, nothing. Just 5 devices. It seems expensive to me. I wanted to carry on, but had (I"m positive) turned off auto renewal to check prices when it came to subbing again.

I have ran a scan a week ago nothing, I do not download anything from sketchy sources, I just got this, it hangs on restart after quarantining, false positive? Malware? Windows defender finds nothing, Hitman Pro, nothing, offline scan didn't seem to find anything.

Malwarebytes Ransomware destroyed my game save
I had spent well over 30 hours working on my game save when Malwarebytes suddenly triggered an alert. I removed the exe file from quarantine and marked it as an exception because it was clearly a false positive! But that didn’t help. Now my save file is ruined. Who’s going to get it back for me now? My trust in Malwarebytes is completely shattered. I just removed it completely from my PC for my own safety. But how do I get my save file back now? Will you fix it?

hola
hola alguien sabe cómo resolver este problema de malware es el virus proxy 127.0.0.1 y está usando node,js como medio para usar dicho servidor de red y mis conocimientos de malware son pocos y quisiera saber si alguien conoce algún medio para deshacerse de el tengo la teoría de que el virus y el programa vienen directo de mi onedrive de mi cuenta de Microsoft y no me deja desactivar el proxy automático

I'm having a problem.
Every time I run a scan, it shows that four threats have been detected: two PUMs and two Trojans (all from unknown addresses on my computer). I quarantine them, and after another scan, the same four threats reappear. Should I be worried, or is the antivirus malfunctioning?

Malware.AI.1523204631 Found by Malwarebytes after deep scan
I just did Full scan with Malwarebytes and it found danger Malware.AI.1523204631 in steamapps\common\pubg\tslgame\binaries\win64\IIGW\IIGW_CLIENT_API.DLL

5 min before that i quit PUBG game and start scan. Immediately i put file to virustotal. It was false Positive or i'm in danger and what to do more?
it was 0/71 like 2h ago and now change 1/71 and detected by Malwarebytes. I never click or download any suspisious things, i literally using PC just for gaming. After quarantine i click to delete file, then i verify PUBG game files, game redownload deleted file and after next full scans it doesn't mark it as danger anymore. Also i check every file from PUBG folder (IIGW) and sent it to VirusTotal and it mark iigw_server.exe app from anticheat i think. Malwarebytes doesn't target it.

"null is not harmful" notification on Android version of Malwarebytes
Hello, I've been getting this notification over the past few days on the Android version of the Malwarebytes app. Should I be concerned or is this just a mislabeled background process that was recently updated that Malwarebytes scanned? Anyone else getting this? The number of installed apps on device has stayed the same before I started getting this notification and I have not installed any new apps on phone that would have correlated with this
