What you see in the main dashboard, is, for all intents and purposes, what you get. Unlike ESET, Malwarebytes doesn't have any 'hidden' features stashed away in its sub-menus. Webcam protection, which carefully monitors which programs have access to your webcam, is also missing. Rounding things out, Exploit Protection identifies malicious software that takes advantage of weaknesses and errors in your system.ĭespite all of the above, the program lacks email protection: In other antivirus programs, you can set whether incoming and/or outgoing emails are scanned for threats or viruses. Ransomware Protection defends you against so-called extortion Trojans, which take your files or folders hostage (by encrypting them), only freeing them after you pay a hefty ransom. Malware and PUP Protection wards off programs that would harm your computer, such as viruses, adware, and other unwanted software. Web Protection alerts you to dangerous websites, phishing attempts, and other online hustles. This is where the Malwarebytes experience ends for free users since Real-Time Protection is limited to paying subscribers.

Real-time protection only for paying customers Reports from all scans are saved and archived allowing you to continually access and review them. With the Scan Scheduler, you can set scans from any of the three categories to run at specific times and intervals.

Malwarebytes is it good
