I am sorry you have had a problem with our software. If you could provide
the log file it generated; or better yet, install it and allow it to run
again, generating a log file, and just don't let it make any changes. I'd
like to see what the issue might be.

I wouldn't go so far as to call our software Junkware. Seriously, if you
have a problem, I will do my best to help you fix the issue.

EE is considered a rogue application yes. We're not the only company that
considers it as such, however.

I'd like to know why you think MBAM is spyware?
