Question on MBAM

As all, I love this product but have never used it real time. My reason is the kid factor and I might be wrong on this so I am asking.

Whne you run a malacious file the pop up gives you 2 choices, Ignore and Quarantine

This wont work for me as kids are not going to understand or choose the right choice. Is there a way to make it quarantine automatically.

thanks

 

Why don't you explain to your kids how to make the choice. You can tell them to click always on quarantine, and if the option does not appear clean/delete

 

yeah right,

guess you dont have kids.

MBAM fails in its ability not to give the user the ability to tic a setting for this. Webroot has it incorporated into its products. I remember when Joe added it to Prevx because he agreed with what I am saying here.

 

agree with trjam in this one auto-matic desicion will be more secure especially when let's see a nasty malware was found and by accident the kids click ignore instead of quarentine

 

I installed Shadow Defender and instructed my Grand children to always turn it on before they go on line. It's easy to set up. When they shut down every thing they did is gone, so MBAM's setting is irrelevent.

 

But Jeff's question has not really been addressed. I use MBAM real time, and while I cannot answer his question, the couple of times that MBAM has stopped malware I think it automatically quarantined it. However, I am not sure so have posted the question on the MBAM forum.
I don't know how responsive they are there.

Now that I think of it, my MBAM puts up a little banner saying that Malwarebytes just stopped a piece of malware with no question of what to do with it.

 

Upon reflection that is what has happened the couple of times I had it happen. There was a notice that MBAM had blocked the attempt. I don't remember what happened to it, but don't remember that it even quarantined the malware.
