Quick Links to MalwareBytes Program and Definitions Download

We sometimes need to use the MalwareBytes product to verify that a system is clean.

That site has links to both the program download on a third party site as well as the definition update file that can be important if a malware infection is afoot.

Hi Philip,

Does this mean you sell a copy of the software with every system you check, as they have updated their EULA making it only free for non-commercial use (sections 9,10 & 11)

We have had to use alternative products where clients don’t want to purchase it

Andy,

Good point. In a business setting we should pay for the license.

With that change we will look at alternate products.

What do you use?

Thanks for the pointer.
