That is irresponsible to advise, Robbins. MBAM is very good, yes - but not fail-safe. On very rare occasions it can produce false positives, though much more rarely than any AV suites I have ever used. And I use MBAM as long as I can remember. Two or three years ago they also messe dup people'S PCs by a terribly flawed update which made many people to reinstall.
You always have to have a very close look before hitting the "proceed"-button.
No security software is out there that you should trust blindly. Never. Even more so since today these security programs themselves get attacked to find entrance into the system. This turns them into a vulnerability themselves.
