It does things differently from other vendors for a reason, because it works. There's a reason you see infected users all over the world being told to run Malwarebytes as one of the first steps to cleaning up their systems.
MALWAREBYTES FOR MACS REVIEW DRIVER
It has tech built in to launch a rootkit scan on reboot if deemed necessary due to infection blocking the rootkit scanning driver and its built in DOR (Delete on Reboot) technology likewise works early in the boot process to remove threats before they can execute (something they oddly complained about as a disadvantage in remediation, yet eliminates the need for something else they claim Malwarebytes lacks).I think they need to see real world attack/remediation scenarios and observe how Malwarebytes handles them vs other products against the same threats. If so, then actually Malwarebytes does have it, but it doesn't need to be initiated manually as a separate function/tool by the user (something that actually might not be possible on a badly infected system). If you want credible advice on malware protection there are much better sites.

So I'll assume that every single Antivirus and Antimalware tested by Consumer Reports get this in their 'Cons' by default.Not good at blocking phishing WebsitesSee my reply for the 'Weak at detecting malware in a scan'.Lacks parental filter and spam filterMalwarebytes isn't an Antivirus, and therefore have no use for such options. If you're attempting to remove rootkits for instance, the ones that loads on startup and are protected when Windows is running, you can only do so either before the shutdown of the system, or really early in the boot, before they get started.
