Hi Julie, sorry I don't know anything about MacScan but others here may be able to comment. I've only used Malwarebytes a couple of times literally and years ago at that. There may be some online review comments that help with this understanding.

I’ve been using this for many years, but also use the free version of Malwarebytes, which detected some bug in the past, whereas the McScan didn’t.I wondered if this was a sales gimmick.
