Malware on a mac

Malwarebytes is safe to use, however it likely is unnecessary as it only removes malware and adware that you download and install. If you use a little common sense it is unnecessary. The common sense is NEVER download anything from a site you are not familiar with an trust. NEVER fall for scams as Apple advises in Avoid phishing emails, fake 'virus' alerts, phony support calls, and other scams and NEVER download anything from a torrent, particularly software you did not pay for!

I have been using Macs for many years and follow my own advice, when I used Malwarebytes it did not find anything to remove so I uninstalled it.

I've had a laptop since 2013. A MacBook Pro without a display retinue. I haven't had a single virus or malware in 6 years.

Malwarebytes is safe to use. It’s the only one recommended by Apple Support Reps.
