I'm no expert, but I am pretty sure its extremely borderline between being legit and having some rogue-like qualities.

You don't have it on your computer do you?

I'll go on record and say it is most definately not malware. Most definately not the best product out there either, not even close. I can think of half a dozen, maybe more if I try hard, free security tools I'd use in place of that and if I was going to spend a dime I would most certainly not have that upon the list of considerations.

But hey, that's just me. ;)

Not just you ;) . I fully agree, not malware, but not trusted product, at least in my eyes. Right up there with Paretologic for me ;) .

Same there, not malware (at least I don't think so), but I really don't recommend their products (of course, also note that my opinions are my own and I do not work for Malwarebytes', I'm just a computer geek :angry: ).

WOT lights stop-sign up like a Christmas tree ;) . Haven't read too many good things about them.

From what I understand eacceleration is trying to "turn around' their product since new management came in, but with Avira, Avast ect... I wouldn't touch it.

See my replies about CD, more or less applies in this case too.
