Malware scanners: MBAM is best of breed

TechRepublic members have been asking about malware scanners. Which ones work? Are they safe to download? I’d like to share what I consider my favorite scanner and why I like it.

As I see it, there are three axioms when it comes to malware removal:
1. Malware coders will be ahead of the curve at all times.
2. Malware is not important until it causes a problem.
3. Just because a malware removal tool worked once, doesn’t mean it will again.
That sounds discouraging doesn’t it? Well, I’m happy to say that I’ve found a product that’s become my malware fighter de jure. Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware (MBAM) is the scanner that keeps malware off my computers and the one that I immediately use when trying to wrestle malware from unknown computers.
