It might carry more weight if an official person for a screenreader wrote to them, as they never did fix the issue with the on screen list view.

Hi,
Can you post the developer info for the same control in Malwarebytes 1.75?
Technical: if I read the info right, they're using an older version of QT framework, which is known for accessibility problems. If that's the case, then a possible long term solution would be to update to latest QT framework where it is reported that accessibility is greatly improved.

It certainly looks like they're now using QT. The fact that it's completely inaccessible suggests they haven't built with QT accessibility. This is definitely going to need a fix on their side; there's nothing that can be done in NVDA.

Doris &Hubby Chris chipmunks@gmx.net says...
supposedly accessibility will be fixed in version 2.1

Brian posts this for information.
The last known mostly working version controls look like this.

It seems that people at least those using the free version, are not being forced to update to the new scan engine at the moment, and definition updates seem to work on this version.
