I have used malwarebytes for a long time now with no issues beyond wondering if it really works. Recently I had an issue with a web search redirect issue. I followed malwarebytes directions which included clearing all data in Chrome. Bad move, ALL my shortcuts created in past years are now gone! And it didn't even fix the problem, which was an advert engine's way of dealing with an ad blocker I had turned on. Temporarily turning this off fixed the problem. I wish malwarebytes would explain the effects of each step in their step by step solutions. I am entirely pissed off!
