Cox, CEO, Tech Talk America. 'Mac threats are not taken seriously enough in the security community today,' said Thomas Reed, Director of Mac and Mobile, Malwarebytes. 'Adware and potentially unwanted programs are becoming a major problem for Mac users. Some very popular apps have been known to carry these threats and despite protections in place, the App Store is not immune to these threats. For example, the recent Proton Remote Access Trojan that plagued Mac users fooled many experienced, security-minded people who became infected.

This perpetuates a crucial lesson that, despite what many Mac users think, they are not safe even if they are careful about what they download. Being security-savvy is no longer enough, all Mac users need dedicated protection against malware, adware and potentially unwanted programs.' For further details on Malwarebytes for Mac, click.

I completely understand, Dave, but I personally like to experiment!;-) I do too, but on a machine that isn't important as far as keeping it up and running. Nothing I do on-line is 'important'!;-) (I avoid Internet banking by the way!) I downloaded and installed Version 3 - just the 30 day trial. It's $40 a year after that isn't it.

No, it's a bit more than that! €39.99+to+us&bext=msl&atb=v78-4&ia=currency I don't think I'll be purchasing the software myself. Unlike many other software programmes I have used, Malwarebytes did NOT uninstall the previous version of their software. I had to manually delete the older one. I think that is a good thing actually, I wouldn't want a trail to delete a paid version or even a previous version without asking.

Perhaps you are right about that. Here's the result of the scan I did:- cheers that's intresting I've searched for that zipcloud.app and I haven't got it. Do you have any idea where it came from? No, I'm afraid I don't know for sure but it MAY have been advertised on Facebook or by Google. I've done a little more searching and have found this on the Apple support forums:- Read reply from Linc Davis FYI, to be on the safe side, here's the result of a scan I've recently completed with my (purchased) AV programme:- The 'zip cloud' facility APPEARS to be genuine and the web site is pretty comprehensive:- I certainly didn't PAY them anything and am quite happy that Malwarebytes have removed it from my machine. I'm wondering WHY they did so!!! - “Men occasionally stumble over the truth, but most of them pick themselves up and hurry off as if nothing ever happened.” (Winston S.
