Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a dependable work-horse when it comes to eradicating malware, and definitely a recommended app for anyone’s security setup. This week Malwarebytes has released a new stable version that features a host of improvements, new features, and a redesigned interface.
The latest Malwarebytes release packs a punch in upgraded abilities and features as seen in the quote below:
From the Press Release: The new product brings together five powerful technologies in a lightweight 16MB download for the first time, the combination of which provides dynamic protection from advanced threats. At its core is a new heuristics engine, designed to detect and kill malicious software based on behavior. This means protection is not reliant on slow-moving signatures, providing defense against zero-day attacks.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.0 also integrates new Anti-Rootkit technology, which rips out and fixes the damage done by malicious software hiding at an extremely deep-level in the operating system. Malwarebytes’ Chameleon is also built-in, allowing Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.0 to brute force start-up and scan when malware is crippling traditional security software and other processes.
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware Premium, which replaces the acclaimed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware PRO, added updated malicious URL blocking and enhanced protection from unwanted programs such as aggressive adware and toolbars. A new user interface and ultra-quick threat scan ensure the product is easy to use.
Version 2.0 works on Windows 8.1, Windows 8, Windows 7, Windows Vista, and Windows XP (32-bit, 64-bit). If you find yourself still using Windows XP beyond next month for whatever reason, then this is definitely good news.
