Malwarebytes Premium + Privacy review: Antivirus protectionĮach Malwarebytes security product for Mac starts with the company’s virus scanning engine and extensive database of known threats.

An Android phone or tablet needs version 7 or higher. Its mobile apps require iOS 11 but due to Apple restrictions, can’t scan for malware. The Malwarebytes Mac software requires macOS 10.12 (Sierra), though its PC version needs Windows 7.0 (with SP1) through Windows 11. You pay more upfront, but there's no surprises on the first anniversary. The company doesn’t discount the first year of its plans but also lacks an annual discount versus the monthly price. Its marketing department takes a different approach. Neither can touch the $6 a user that Sophos charges in a 10 pack. That puts the Malwarebytes software at the high end of the pricing spectrum at $20 per seat, just below Norton’s $21 per user and a bargain compared to Intego’s nearly $30 a system. With the VPN on its own costing $40 a year. It costs $100 for five or $45 for a single system. If i disable the firewall everything works instantly, please help me find out what i need to enable.The Premium + Privacy plan adds the company’s VPN for using the web under the radar. Same happens with the anticheat of Kovaaks aimtrainer, it open the EQU8 Anticheat window, saying 'having trouble connecting.retrying' but can't connect. But when i start the programm it just doesn't seem to get an connection, but the log file shows nothing about that programm beeing blocked. The programm is called 'ProgressSheetUpdater.exe', so i rightclick the exe and click on 'allow through windows firefall'. So for most programms it works correctly, one programm that doesn't work is a non-commercial programm that reads several excel files, crunches some numbers and writes the result into a google drive document.

I use secure Profile and Secure Rules with delete unauthorized rules' Rules are created for outbound, all 3 locations are active Profile is set to Medium filtering (only allow programms in allowed list)

If i disable MWFC the programms work directly after restarting them, if MWFC is enabled they seem to work 1 out of 10 times. I have installed the Malwarebytes Windows Firewall Control and now sometimes some programms are blocked and i don't understand how that works.
