Dustin Cook said Malwarebytes has thousands of happy users, gets praise every single day on many forums; continues to be one of the top rated downloads for antimalware at cnet.com. What you claim just doesn't jive with reality. Your consiperacy theory BS aside, that is. ****** My question remains unanswered. I'm *not* claiming anything - just seeking the truth! -- Dave

According to wikipedia and confirmed at the sites when possible: PC World positive review of mbam http://snipr.com/vm30q Editorial Review of Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware CNET Editors' Choice Awards 2009 Winners - link no longer available Bleeping computer recommends mbam for removal of 2 fake security apps, - links working Positive reviews from Network World and IT Reviews. If you are concerned about installing mbam, there is a portable version of mbam available, but not at portable apps. mbam had a legal conflict with IOBit, claiming iobit infringed IP. During that battle would have been a good time for iobit to claim that mbam harbored 'gremlins', but it did not. It only claimed that it didn't intentionally infringe IP and that remedies had been taken about mbam's concerns. -- Mike Easter

Some form of Superman seeking truth, justice and the American way? You remind me of Chris Butts. I see you changed your sig file because it used to say you were seeking the real truth. Hmmmm. It seems to me your questions have been answered but not to your satisfaction. Sorry. -- JD..
