Malwarebytes claim: IObit is stealing signature databases

8 pages ago it was still interesting, not since then, time to talk about something else now or possibly go play some pool with the girlfriend LOLOL.You do realize that every post increases the size of wilders unnecessasarily ( spelling ) no need to make wilders go from 100megs to 150 megs over this.Let their attorneys handle it from here, and never buy a program from china and you'll be just fine. NOW STOP ! ! ! ! ! ! lol

Then why are you still posting in here?

 

You must be fast asleep. This thread just unvailed another theft! Look:

And:

 

Thier forum has a short thread about it. http://forums.avg.com/eu-en/avg-free-forum?sec=thread&act=show&id=32025

 

that thread seems to think its fine but u dont put a link that says its for another product then just have a download for ur own product start no matter what its instructions wer...

 

what the hell do u think these forums are? get out of the forums if those are ur thoughts, the point of this SECURITY forum is to discuss issues in that world, and thats what wer are doing, if u dont like it, then this is not the forum for u...

 

No, I read that AVG thread as something inquisitorial with a negative tone in it. With people asking what is this?

 

i meant the last post by "rdsok" more

 

here's something interesting, for all of u that remember the infamous Max Zorin who got flamed off these forums for his continuous unjustified MBAM bashing and being a part of SSupdater has since changed his way of thinking and has now posted on the IObit forums DEFENDING mbam!!!

 

You're right. That thread is a dead end. They don't get it.

 

No the thread should not stop. Hell it's just now getting good.


Odd thing though is that I don't remember MBAM spewing near as much hot water over Symantec online help using MBAM without permission. I realize there is certainly a difference between going up against IObit vs. Symantec. But still...

...at this point I am sure the lawyers are telling MBAM to stop posting about this whole mess for now but it's probably too much of a publicity windfall to not take advantage of the free advertising...

MBAM has a right to be ticked but they will squeeze every bit of free advertising out of this IObit news they can...

 

as they rightfully shuld IMO.

something interesting about the background (who is their ceo who are the developers) of iobit:

Every link on this page prompts a download for Iobit Security 360 even the ones for Advanced System Care. Wow

Symantec did not sell MBAM. They did not steal the program. A few supporters used it in some online sessions.

 

it was still an issue cuz im pretty sure the support service was paid for.

 

Yes. Only this is far more serious.

 

Seriousness is relative.

 

Look at this comment left by one of the WOT users. Is this being clueless or what?

Not in disagreement with your statement. Just kinda odd MBAM did not play out the Symantec situation more than they did. Yet they are all over a company that makes a product most people have never heard about.

 

What is helix? That WOT comment does not make sense...

 

One of those diehard fans of Iobit that think they have all the answers. Their are several such on Iobits forums

 

cuz i guess MBAM realized how large Symantec is and how little they culd probly do to it

 

Either that or they got paid enough not to worry bout it lol
