It is still king at malware removal and the free version does that just fine so it's probably worth downloading for that reason. I really could go on and on about Malwarebytes but the last straw was when it declared my license key was a fake when I bought the program fair and square, I could have contacted them and probably got it resolved but in the end i decided to say bye bye as most Anti Virus programs offer similar protection now anyway. Thankfully they cut down on the pop ups which were constant but the default settings are still a mess. I could also tell when it was performing a signature update as my PC would simply stop during this process, make sure you check one of the awful default settings to check for new signatures every hour or you will go insane. If you continue to ignore it then it takes matters into it's own hands and updates all by itself. What is with the nag nag nag to update to the latest version, you check the box to remind you later and 5 mins later it's back, nag nag nag. Scan times are so slow that a full scan will take hours to complete and forget doing anything whilst scanning as it will consume all the resources your pc has. Since they began their overhaul of Malwarebytes it just seems it's being developed by a bunch of chimps ! First off is the fact that the new versions are consuming double the power of the old version without much new in the way of features.

I never thought I would ever say that I am glad to see the back of Malwarebytes but I really am happy to ditch it !
