Isn’t it against the MB license to use the free version on commercial workstations?
From: John Aldrich [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, April 23, 2010 7:27 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Agreed! I’ve run a scan on an infected PC with Vipre Rescue and it found and cleaned some stuff, then I ran a scan with MBAM and it found and cleaned some other stuff, and after that I scanned and cleaned with SpyBot S&D and *it* found yet some other things that the other two missed. That’s my typical plan when faced with a problem.

I would agree as long as whatever MBam does to develop and manage their product stays separate from Vipre Development, maybe an engine plugin into Vipre or something, but if they didn’t develop separately we would lose the unique scanning capabilities of each product.

I’ll augment Alex’s original statement; “No one AV\AM technology will catch everything.” I’d love to see Malwarebytes come under the Sunbelt umbrella….. Shook From: Kim Longenbaugh [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Friday, April 23, 2010 9:42 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Well, that would be bad if that happened, because “no AV company will catch everything”, and a merger/acquisition would result in “one AV company”. There should be a corollary to Finagle’s Law about that, or even the better-known Murphy’s Law. From: Pete Howard [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 8:01 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Good idea to hook up with MB. They have a flawless reputation on the ground level among admin as the goto place to clean crap when the big name AV company cant. I wouldn't be surprised if they get picked up by MFE or SYMC by the end of the year. Or maybe add them to the Sunbelt portfolio ? _____ From: Alex Eckelberry <[email protected]> To: NT System Admin Issues <[email protected]> Sent: Thu, April 22, 2010 8:27:43 PM Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! You'd be surprised at how many people don't know about Malwarebytes (even I was surprised). I think it's also good to partner with this very smart group of people who are doing good work. Also the partnership includes more than just a website.

Carl From: Alex Eckelberry [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 8:00 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Tacit? Heck, I'll just say it: No AV company will catch everything. Not partnering is just doing a dis-service to your customers.

Oh, I just realized it's more than just marketing/advertising. It's a tacit admission by both companies that their own products might miss something. No surprise to most of us. From: Carl Houseman [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 10:11 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Isn't Malwarebytes for scanning/cleaning already free? Is there any functionality here that wasn't easily possible before? Looks like not much more than a marketing/advertising partnership. Carl From: Joe Tinney [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 8:55 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Does anyone know if the Malware Bytes download referenced on that page is truly free for all to use like VIPRE Rescue is? I’m specifically interested in corporate/business use. From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 8:41 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Greetings! As so many of us tend to use MalwareBytes in addition to VIPRE and other apps to deal with infested systems, it seems Sunbelt has intered into a partnership with them: http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Press/Releases/?id=346 -- Richard D.
