But I think blocking entire domains because of | a few sites is really overkill and entirely unproductive. This MBAM | is really a rather crudely done program. It needs a major rethink. What did Steven say when you posted this in the Malwarebytes' forums ? -- Dave http://www.claymania.com/removal-trojan-adware.html Multi-AV - http://www.pctipp.ch/downloads/dl/35905.asp

I'd suggest you visit the forum and start a thread. Something is amiss with your program, and I'd rather it was fixed than you run the unnecessary risk of getting infected with something. > Something is goofy. Agreed.

OK I do think you should admit to him, though, that you once were employed by Malwarebytes - and explain why they recently dispensed with your services. I'm sure others would like to know too.

Do what now? My employment with malwarebytes has nothing to do with the assistance I offered BD. I wasn't trying to sell the guy a copy or anything, he's already a paid user. I have no reason to explain anything specific about malwarebytes, the software, my employment or anything else thats covered under a non disclosure agreement. Sorry BD, but the non disclosure prevents me from doing anything more than answer simple questions related to how to use the program. Your efforts to get information your not entitled too, not withstanding. -- I'm just an ordinary average guy. My friends are all boring, and so am I. We're just ordinary average guys.
