Malwarebytes

Malwarebytes is a program that will help the user to get total control over PC security. The software is shareware. The Pro version differs from the free version only in minor features that are not worth paying money for, as the Free version already provides all the most necessary functions. Malwarebytes was originally conceived by the developers as a software capable of detecting and completely eliminating malware that other antiviruses and antispyware are unable to detect. But over time, it has evolved into a full-fledged antivirus software.

System scanning

There are quite a few languages integrated into the program. Malwarebytes can be installed on a PC with Windows operating system. System requirements:

• Windows version at least XP;
• 1/2 GB RAM (32-bit/64-bit);
• at least 20 MB of free memory.

The demo version is a full-fledged scanner with a large number of various settings that will help you keep your computer's security under control, prevent possible threats and eliminate them. A paid license will allow you to run protection in online mode. With the help of this software, the user can scan the system, view the results of scanning, and remove all threats that have been detected. If necessary, it is possible to quarantine files or create an exclusion list. Programs that are in this list will be invisible to the scanner.

Advantages

The antivirus database is updated daily, so you don't have to worry that Malwarebytes won't be able to fully counter new types of threats. You also don't have to worry that various virus software will prevent this software from running, as it uses a cloaking technology called "Chamelion". The scan will run under completely different names and extensions, so malware will not be able to detect and block it.
