Malwarebytes is an anti-malware app for finding and removing potentially harmful files from your computer. This program, formerly known as Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, can rid your computer of any threat: spyware, adware, Trojans, rogue software, etcetera.

Using the free version of Malwarebytes is very simple. All you have to do is click once to start scanning your computer, which can last from a few seconds to a few minutes, depending on the size of your hard drive and your processor's power. Once the scan is finished, you'll see a general summary of all the threats it found. By clicking on the 'view report' button, you can access additional details.

It's important to note that while the free version of Malwarebytes can scan your computer for threats, the paid version offers many other features. The most important and useful of these additional features is real-time protection. Thanks to this shield, you can prevent all kinds of problems before they even occur. Another useful tool included with the paid version is a blocker for potentially dangerous websites.

Malwarebytes is one of the best anti-malware tools available online. This program has been a benchmark since 2006 and has one of the most important security databases in the world. In addition, it is by far one of the easiest security apps to use, making it perfect for all kinds of users.
