Malwarebytes is a complete antivirus replacement to protect you from malware, ransomware, exploits, and malicious websites and apps. Video tutorial available.

Malwarebytes products have long been a favorite of ours at MajorGeeks.com, especially with our Malware Removal Gurus in our forums. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware detects and removes malware, spyware, and potentially unwanted items like worms, trojans, rootkits, rogues, adware, and more with a clean user interface that should be intuitive to everyone, even a novice.

All you have to do is launch Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Free and run a scan. It's that simple. The program will recommend items to remove and clean them with no charge whatsoever. Or, if you want even better protection, consider upgrading to Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium. The premium version will not only handle spyware and malware removal but has additional protection options, including an instant real-time scanner that automatically prevents malware and websites from infecting your PC.



The Premium Malwarebytes Anti-Malware version features:

Real-time protection against malware and other threats

Block hacking and phishing attempts

Schedules automatic scanning

Offers three flexible scan modes

With over 16 million downloads at MajorGeeks alone, Malwarebytes is one of the top-downloaded files of all time. Find out why IT experts, businesses, and technical support centers worldwide include Malwarebytes in their arsenal when fixing and defending their machines.

Pro Tip: We like to pair Malwarebytes Free with BitDefender Antivirus Free Edition. Now, some may argue that if you have the premium version of Malwarebytes, you do not need a traditional antivirus -- we disagree. Malwarebytes excels at detecting modern threats like ransomware, phishing, and behavior-based anomalies. Bitdefender Free can act as an additional layer of protection for catching classic virus signatures that Malwarebytes might miss. However, we would not run the pro version of either of these toghter as they would confilct.
