In addition, we have implemented a threats center which will allow you to keep up to date with the latest malware threats. The Realtime Protection Module uses our advanced heuristic scanning technology which monitors your system to keep it safe and secure. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware monitors every process and stops malicious processes before they even start.
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware can detect and remove malware that even the most well-known Anti-Virus and Anti-Malware applications on the market today cannot. We compiled a number of new technologies that are designed to quickly detect, destroy, and prevent malware. Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware is considered to be the next step in the detection and removal of malware. Only the most sophisticated anti-malware techniques can detect and remove these malicious programs from your computer. 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.
The Intego VirusBarrier Scanner works just as well as an on-demand scanner - and it's free.Īnd I actually do use and recommend the older "Malwarebytes Anti-Malware" program (v.1.3.1.628) It still works very well, much as it did when Thomas Reed originally developed it - a tight, light, free scanner for active infections - before Malwarebytes (the company) turned it into a bloated piece of expensive corporate crapware.Have you ever considered what makes an anti-malware application effective? We at Malwarebytes have created an easy-to-use, simple, and effective anti-malware application. I don't actually recommend ClamXAV though I do subscribe. And by the way, "Hanspoot," I don't get money from any AV vendors as you insinuate in one of your snarky comments below.
This is beyond inexcusable - it's disgraceful. It leaves bits and pieces of Malwarebytes junk all over the place. Now, if you want to see a useful review, scroll down to "Jimw's" comments on May 17, 2019, where he points out that not only does Malwarebytes cause instabilities (inexcusable in and of itself), but its so-called "uninstaller" doesn't actually uninstall everything like it should. This is something akin to what Malwarebytes does with it says that it "crushes the latest threats" and other hyped-up nonsense.
That's the point of "real-time" scanning, and why you pay a premium (in money and performance) for it.Īlso, please, be skeptical of reviewers who make silly, boastful claims that can't be substantiated. This is beyond irresponsible - it is appalling.įor that kind of money, you should not be getting ANY infections. You especially want to avoid a consultant who allows you to get 5 infections per month while using a "real-time" scanner like the paid subscription version of Malwarebytes.
My friends, if you are averaging 5 infections per month, while you pay both a Mac consultant, and also for anti-malware software, your Mac consultant is not only incompetent but irresponsible.Ī properly protected Mac, with a properly trained user (and a reputable Mac consultant should be a *teacher* for his or her clients, rather than leaving them uneducated and vulnerable in order to suck money out of them) should not get 5 infections in A YEAR. I would also say that quickie, one-liner 5-star reviews by people who purport to be Mac malware experts (I'm referring to "Hanspoot" just below) with "over 300" clients are EXCEPTIONALLY worthless.Įspecially when that 'expert' is claiming (it actually sounds like boasting) that his 300+ clients are averaging 5 infections PER MONTH. I have stated this before on MacUpdate but, since some people didn't get the memo, I'll say it again: Quickie, one-liner 5-star reviews on this site are WORTHLESS.
