Hi there – I read with interest your review of this program and was puzzled by this statement – “it’s a program to fight against malware only, so it can’t be compared with the more serious software out there”. I can’t understand what you mean by this as, surely all viruses are malware, and this program does indeed detect and remove more serious threats such as trojans, rootkits etc. I am currently working on an infected laptop for a client who has a full, updated version of McAfee Security Centre yet the free version of Malwarebytes Antimalware detected and removed 42 infections ranging from PUPs to Trojans, Keystroke loggers and Rootkits. This, as I mentioned, is on a PC with a fully paid and registered version of McAfee. I used to use various protection in the past including Norton, McAfee, Bitdefender with varying results but I have used Malwarebytes Antimalware for a couple of years now, both on my own PCs and on clients PCs and it has never let me down once. So, again, my question is – what do you mean by this statement?

By saying “it’s a program to fight against malware only, so it can’t be compared with the more serious software out there”, we mean that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware still lacks some features in order to become a replacement for antivirus software. It can't be compared with anti-virus tools because it finds difficulties when eliminating sophisticated viruses, such as file infectors and similar. However, it can be a powerful additional program, which perfectly runs alongside antivirus software.

What other free spyware program will work alongside Norton, I kept getting PC mighty Max popping up, i Yogi, and I have used smilebox software for years but now people are saying it is spyware so I removed it. I have finally got rid of i Yogi and PC mighty max, I have no idea how they got on my system in the first place as I do not do much downloading except from HP and Microsoft web sites.
