I often recommend MalwareBytes to my reader(s). There may be 2 of you. Today though, my friend Grizz called saying MB was acting flakey. Carol noticed some odd behavior this morning as well, of MalwareBytes, not Grizz, but then….
Anyway, I helped Grizz uninstall it and then went to look for some info on what was happening. Sure enough, there were plenty of articles on the problem with MB, particularly it flagging Google.com as a bad site and sometimes blocking access to it. Therefor, the oops, in the heading. They made a mistake. It happens. It needs fixing. In the meantime, their suggestion is to turn on the toggle for Web Protection in the main MalwareBytes screen. A temporary and not very good solution, because then it doesn’t offer Web Protection. Hoping this is very short lived.
