BleepingComputer isn&#8217;t the only one with a target on their back.\u00a0 Enigma is also bringing legal action against Malwarebytes.\u00a0 According to<a href=\"http:\/\/www.prleap.com\/pr\/249917\/enigma-software-group-files-suit-against\"> PRLeap<\/a>, Enigma&#8217;s suit claims their competitor used false advertising, unfair competition, and tortious interference with contractual relations when they categorized Enigma&#8217;s SpyHunter and RegHunter as Potentially Unwanted Programs (PUP).<\/p>\n<p>Enigma reports that in the last eight years, Malwarebytes has never classified their programs as PUPs.\u00a0 So why now?\u00a0 Theorist suggests there are two motives.\u00a0\u00a0First, is financial.\u00a0 If Malwarebytes classifies their competitor&#8217;s anti-malware program, SpyHunter as a PUP, Enigma will see a dip in their bottom line.\u00a0 Another theory suggests Malwarebytes is using this as a pressure technique.\u00a0 According to <a href=\"http:\/\/www.prleap.com\/pr\/249917\/enigma-software-group-files-suit-against\">PRLeap<\/a>, BleepingComputer, who also is in litigation with Enigma, is one of Malwarebytes largest affiliates.\u00a0 Since BleepingComputer&#8217;s suit is still pending, this could pressure Enigma to settle.<\/p>\n<h3>What is a PUP?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Potentially Unwanted Programs<\/strong> (PUPs) are software programs that a user has no intention of downloading to their device. PUP viruses are also known as PUAs or Potentially Unwanted Applications. These also include junkware, or bundleware. These unwanted add-on&#8217;s mostly come with software that you do want to download on your system. Unsuspecting PUP virus software gets automatically installed when you click to install without carefully reading the fine print.<\/p>\n<h3>What is Malwarebytes up to?<\/h3>\n<p><strong>Malwarebytes PUP Classification issues<\/strong>\u00a0have caused Enigma to file a lawsuit against the software maker. What do you think?\u00a0 Is Malwarebytes pushing the envelope to help BleepingComputer in anyway they can?\u00a0 Or do you believe Malwarebytes believes these two programs are PUPs and are simply protecting users&#8217; PCs?\u00a0 The full complaint can be found <a href=\"http:\/\/www.enigmasoftware.com\/legal\/enigma-software-vs-malwarebytes-complaint.pdf\">here<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.pcmatic.com\/blog\/2016\/12\/16\/malwarebytes-alert\/\">Malwarebytes Alerts online<\/a>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Enigma files complaint against Malwarebytes after PUP classifications&#8230; Malwarebytes PUP classification.
