"Great product. Use care when downloading."
Version: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.75
Pros
Great product. I have saved more than one PC from the dreaded re-install sometimes required to get rid of viruses. Free version is adequate.
Cons
You need to read carefully when installing to make sure you check or uncheck the correct boxes to avoid the bloatware that will accompany this from CNET's site if you aren't careful. Do not accept the free trial of the PRO version or your free version will expire and won't work after a period of time. If you decline the free trial the free version does not expire.
Summary
A great product for ridding a PC of malware. Best one I have found. Easy to use and effective. You don't need the active protection offered by the Pro version. Just run it once a month or when you have a problem.

This anti-malware software is possibly the best free software to get rid of the most annoying bots and malware. Where other progams fails, this gets the job done. For free.

When upgrading it recommends you to disable firewall and antivirus.
In free version it does not run in background.Summary
If you (or somebody in family) happens to download some malware, this program can save your day!
If you are a standard user, you do not need to run this program every day or have it running constantly, but can make a scan every month or so. -

"A must to have on your PC."
Version: Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.75

Easy to use. Has three modes that can be run. Once you run the full scan, which takes some time, you can use the quick scan unless you encounter serious problems. The paid version keeps itself updated automatically and runs in the background. The free version needs to be run manually.
Cons
The full version seems a bit pricey.
Summary
Download and use to prevent issues or to get rid of them.
