The freebie version of it aint bad either. .

It fixed my computer when it got all locked up with ransomware.

You probably should cut down on those porn site imo.


But yeah, MalwareBytes is essential to have in the tool bag imo

I don't pay for the premium versions but routinely run the free scans for peace of mind.

I'm also a regular Malwarebytes user .....

Re: malware

I bought two lifetime licences under a special offer quite a few years ago. There have been a few new releases since then but the licences are still being honoured.

Re: malware

I got just one of them

Re: malware

A licence is for one computer and we bought one for Mrs mart's.

Re: malware

Yes, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit (both free versions, of course).

Re: malware

I also use "SpyBot - Search & Destroy" which is very good at keeping the baddies at bay!

Re: malware

Computer users, who are using the 32 bit version of Ccleaner, should be aware that a Trojan Virus was attached to a 32 bit Ccleaner update in August/September this year.

This is a nasty virus which sends much of your data back to a baddie website.

The latest level of Malwarebytes spots this and fixes it.

It spotted it on my 64 bit machine as the 32 bit update was there even though my 64 bit pc would not use it.

If you use Ccleaner you might want to search on Trojan.Floxif
