HI Lenny, Yes, I understand. <Smile>. I will suggest you run both though as any modern computer such as a Win8 can handle this configuration. You will also be much more protected if you run both simultaneously. MSE (now defender in Win8) is not very good at scanning one's registry. On the other hand, Malwarebytes Pro is very, very good at scanning one's registry, and it is a very fast malware scanner.

No real-time blocking/scanning is similar to not having any malware protection of this type at all. This means that when you visit a website with code running in the background that can infect your computer with a virus, you will not know that you've been infected until you run a malware scan which can be days or weeks after the infection. Since you might already be infected, the removal of malware might be impossible depending on the aggressiveness of the malware. In short, no real-time scanning is a very bad idea. George's Malwarebytes Pro is running in real-time and is a very effective and very accessible malware utility.

And when I I tried to install it on my grandson's computer I needed sighted help. When they made the new release it messed up the install process for jaws.
