Have you ever considered what makes an anti-malware application effective? Malwarebytes has created an easy-to-use, simple, and effective anti-malware application. Whether you know it or not your computer is always at risk of becoming infected with viruses, worms, trojans, rootkits, dialers, spyware, and malware that are constantly evolving and becoming harder to detect and remove. Only the most sophisticated anti-malware techniques can detect and remove these malicious programs from your computer.

Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is considered to be the next step in the detection and removal of malware. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware can detect and remove malware that even the most well known anti-virus and anti-malware applications fail to detect. It monitors every process and stops malicious processes before they even start. The realtime protection module uses an advanced heuristic scanning technology which monitors your system to keep it safe and secure. In addition, we have implemented a threats center which will allow you to keep up to date with the latest malware threats.

It costs nothing to download the free version, of course, and it’s what I use on my own PC. Activating the full version unlocks the realtime protection, scheduled scanning, and scheduled updating. For personal use, it is a one-time fee of $24.95.

I keep meaning to upgrade to the paid version – not because I need the extra features, but because I’ve been so happy with the free version that I feel I ought to pay them something.
