    I like the CPU Setting on the new release. Good for older Mac's. :thumb:
    Screen shot of Low, Medium and High Settings. Also shows scan time of each setting.

    Malwarebytes for Mac 4.15.9.4666 has been released.

    Release notes: https://support.malwarebytes.com/hc...58419-Malwarebytes-for-Mac-4-15-Release-Notes
    If you participated in the beta test of the same build number, you do not need to update or reinstall as the hashes for both are identical. If you are not a beta tester, a simple "Check for updates..." should suffice if the app was not already updated automatically.

    The DTBS remains at 4.0.579.

    Thank you.
