    "Excellent Virus Killer!"

    February 15, 2009  |   By ddelga

    Version: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30

    Pros

    Very effective, quick and permanent virus killer. It is so easy and the results are great.

    Cons

    Nothing, everything worked great.

    Summary

    Very easy and quick software! The software scanned my harddrive in 20-30 minutes and zapped the trojan virus permanently that Ad-aware, windows defender and McAfee security center could not. Very pleased with the result.

    Version: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30

    Pros

    I like the way it gives you a web site for corrections

    Some of the programs can not make it out of the 'bad' no matter what you do.

    Summary

    This product does a lot better than most out there now.

    "Disappointed. After paying,codes given were "invalid"."

    February 13, 2009  |   By Ray-500

    Version: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30

    Pros

    Product "appeared" to do the job. Had no problem with trying the "free" product.

    Cons

    After registering, and paying fee, found my "codes" did not work. Could not actually "unlock" program. Working with "helpdesk" at this time. They seem to have a "database" problem. Will see what happens. Am not pleased.

    Summary

    At present, am not happy. Registered the product and found that the "codes" given me were inoperative. Registration fee handled by a different company..."Cleverbridge". They stated they "cannot answer specific product-related questions", and referred me to the help desk. Will wait two or three days to see what R&D comes up with, but at this time, my fee was paid for a registration that DOES NOT work. Am not a happy camper.

    "Loved it!!"

    February 13, 2009  |   By eternalgravity

    Version: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30

    Pros

    This program is quick, easy to use, and thorough. It was rec'd to me by bleepingcomputers.com when I had a virus I couldn't shake (XP). It took care of it. I've since been using this. I'll be trying this on my Vista and I seriously hope it works.

    Cons

    Haven't caught any cons yet on my XP.

    Summary

    Good program to dl for your regular antiviral/antispyware arsenal.

    "Very Effective But Not Completely So"

    February 13, 2009  |   By guruman123

    Version: Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware 1.30

    Pros

    After Spydoctor, Spybot and other program failed to remove AntiVirus 2009,Anti- Malware did a better job and got my system functioning . It's fast and simple to use. Plus, it doesn't interfere with other programs.

    Cons

    Once I got my system back up I went into the registry and system 32 files to do a search for bits of Antivirus 2009 and found over 30 pieces left. These were , I assume, lurking and waiting to repropagate. Malaware should have found them.

    Summary

    As freeware it's great and the paid version is probably worth the investment. Much better than competitor programs. However, the best use of theis program is along with advice from the Major Geeks web site.
