Download Malwarebytes 3.2.0.1959 Beta
Malwarebytes has released a new beta version of Anti-Malware. This program is aimed at fighting malware, such as 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.
Since version 3.0, the program has a new user interface and is now simply called Malwarebytes. It now also includes the Anti-Exploit and Anti-Ransomware tools, which were previously offered as separate programs. The manufacturer believes that the product can now also be used as a replacement for traditional antivirus software, where it previously recommended to use it alongside. This only applies to the paid version, the free version only functions as an on-demand scanner. The changelog for version 3.2 looks like this for now:
