It turns out they were telling me what extra software they were foisting on me. Hooray for you folks! That will pretty much guarantee that the people who get the product from the downloads.
Our product from the CNet download link does not come with their install wrapper as most of the other programs you mention do. I can in most cases locate the main download page for my downloads.
When CNET is mentioned in a convo with my contacts the perception is mostly negative, probably due to their past experiences that were similar to mine. I just had to re-install the Free Version from Malwarebytes website which states that the free version will be downloaded from one of the Trusted Partners. Yes but the thing was that when you press the Malwarebytes download button for the free version it takes you straight to CNET and I was suggesting that the Malwarebytes download button should have an option to choose one of the other Trusted Partners.
I agree completely. An easy to use link on the same page as the main button that installs the free version, is needed. Also given how terrible the reputation of CNET is these days, I have no idea why anybody would want to be associated with them at all.
As a long time member of CNET the one thing I find the most disconcerting is their addition of a plethora of social media and data tracker browser plug-ins. Call me parinoid but you never know how these data mining companys use this information. COM, and a few of the were major incursions - root kits. I saw a few very rapid things go across the CNET download manger window which looked like banner ads.
Last I head that was considerd to be "illegah computer trespass" and a felony. Although malwarebytes and avast i download on cnet are good, ive also observed that cnet has some shady version of legit files , i downloaded a program, tried to run it , it had no digital signature, retried the link and ran it again and got a signature, this happened on more than 2 occasions. Seems to me that every one on this thread is targeting just Cnet.
I hope everyone knows there are plenty of other sites doing exactly the same thing. And yes I know the issue of Trusted Download Partners is the topic. But as AdvancedSetup stated:. So far as PUP's Potentially unwanted Programs , User education is what is needed, what to check, how to check, when to check. The web is not going to change, so these steps are needed. I now ask Admin to either move this to another part of the forum or close the topic. The issue of Mbam trusting Cnet as a download partner has been well covered.
I would like admin to consider that the Malwarebytes own site download button for the free version should have an option to choose which one of the Trusted Partners to download from and not be sent straight to CNET:.

Lipman Posted June 14, TeMerc Posted June 14, Hi, Donnat: At the risk of gilding the lily for all the excellent, expert advice from the staff and the other, knowledgeable forum members, there is also this KB topic, with links to several of the official, popular download sites: Where can I download the latest version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware?
Cheers, daledoc1. This is a view of the CNET download page for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware if you are directed there via the download page on our website: While there is an advertisement for ARO at the bottom of the page which I had to scroll down to in order to fully view, even on a x screen , the actual download for Malwarebytes Anti-Malware at the top of the page which says Download Now was the first and most noticeable thing I saw.
BarleySinger Posted October 17, Posted October 17, Root Admin. AdvancedSetup Posted October 17, Scoop Posted October 17, Posted October 20, Why doesn't Malwarebytes give an option to choose one of the other Trusted Partners.
Hello Wide Glide Yes but the thing was that when you press the Malwarebytes download button for the free version it takes you straight to CNET and I was suggesting that the Malwarebytes download button should have an option to choose one of the other Trusted Partners.

Speaker 1: You go into the task manager and you see a bunch of different processes that you don't recognize. Maybe one of these processes is malware. Now you need to go through each one to make sure each process is not malware. It will check what's running. If something is strange or is known malware, you'll be alerted and walk through how to handle it.
Number four, your antivirus should be looking for suspicious behavior. This is similar to number three. Let me explain it with another example. You're working in Microsoft word, have nothing else running that you know of, and your computer seems to be up floating or downloading a lot of data that probably should not be happening and could be caused by malware.
Talking to the [] internet. Your antivirus program should catch this for you onto the recommendations as chosen by CNET editors. Speaker 1: The best free windows antivirus is Microsoft defender. If you have windows 10, you already have this bundled in. Not only that, but it's already running by default.
Microsoft defender is updated frequently. So make sure you keep windows 10 updated. Why am I telling you about a piece of software that's bundled in with windows? That's because in the olden days, [] windows did not ship with antivirus protection at all.
You had to get a third party solution. Those were some weird days. People, if you want free, but not Microsoft check out bit defender, antivirus free edition. Remember all that monitoring stuff I was talking about before it can slow down performance because your system is constantly checking itself out bit defender says its software will protect you without slowing down your machine.
You get real time detection, virus, scanning, and malware removal [] for free. Speaker 1: At the time of this recording, Norton goes beyond just malware protection for your annual payment, you get gigs of cloud storage, a password manager, access to a VPN parental controls and more. This is more of an overall security suite. Then there's Malwarebytes. This is the best piece of soft, where if [] you're trying to clean up an already infected machine, you can download it for free and test it out.
Keep in mind that when it comes to malware, new threats, pop up all the time, keep your systems and antivirus software up to date. If you can make sure your downloads are from safe and reputable places, don't just open any [] file that gets sent to you. And always, always look both ways before you cross the street. That's just sound advice. I'm Maya, Zach tire. I'll see you online. This is how you feel when you have antivirus protection. This is how you feel when you don't have antivirus protection.
