Download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.0.3.1025
The final release of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware version 2.0.3 has been released. This program is aimed at fighting spy, ad and malware. Especially on the removal of malicious software that pretends to be a bona fide antivirus or antispyware solution, but in reality has less good intentions, such as ransom– or scareware. In addition to the free version, there is a paid variant, which offers additional functionality, including real-time protection.
In version 2.0, among other things, the user interface has been refreshed, Anti-Rootkit and the Chameleon driver are now included as standard and the module for blocking malicious websites has been considerably improved. As of version 2.0, a license is only valid for one year. Previously this was a lifetime license and the old licenses remain valid under those conditions. The changelog for version 2.0.3 can be found below.
