Download Malwarebytes 3.6.1.2711

Version 3.6.1 of Malwarebytes has been released recently. 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 Anti-Exploit and Anti-Ransomware tools have been integrated, which were previously offered as separate programs. The manufacturer therefore 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 following changes and improvements have been made in this release:

Performance/protective capability

• Improved detection and remediation

usability

• Removed default monthly Scheduled Scan in Free mode
• Updated the installer to allow installation to standalone Business mode when certain conditions are met

Stability/issues fixed

• Fixed BSOD involving farflt.sys
• Fixed issue with exclusion involving short filenames
• Addressed other miscellaneous defects
