Avast Free and Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit
« on: April 25, 2015, 04:44:59 AM »
I have seen on the forum in the past that Avast and Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit had some problems when they ran together.
I am wondering if this is still the case.
Does MBAE provide much additional protection?  Does it slow the computer more?

Thank you for the help.

MBAE and MBAM run very well with Avast and are essential additions to your security setup, best to always exclude your security software from each other to avoid any future conflicts.

No slow downs that I've discovered :)

G'day greyowl,

Craig not the only person who used Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit see my Sig below and I've been using MBAE as well, and what Craig said it very important to exclude your security software from each other to avoid any future conflicts and I have no issue at all.

Yes,  no issues with MBAE and Avast.
My experience with MBAE and Avast goes back to beta versions when the developer was ZeroVulnerabilities and no one (almost no one) was using it here on the forum. ;)

Sorry to butt in here, but I dign't think I would start new topic for just little question, but I'd like clarification if MBAE would have any problems with Avast Online Security?
