Customer Ratings & Reviews

Have used Malwarebytes for years. Easy setup, and I have had no problems with it.

Because of my new business, I need security that is reliable. Malwarebytes is just that!

Great antivirus , very fast doesn’t slow down your computer

Dependable. No stress, and always aware for my safety.

This Computer anti-virus program is a fantastic tool that fights viruses and malware & protects your computer.

seems to be working okay, I'm not sure its premium quality

Needed quickly, and nice to get a reasonable price.

The number one best Anti-Virus Protection Product that I ever had for my Laptops.

Malware Bytes is the " BEST OF THE BEST " in internet security! I rate this product five stars!

Purchased this product in store and received a card with instructions to download it from the website and enter the product key. When I did that, Malwarebytes refused to accept product key claiming it was invalid. This started me on a back and forth between Malwarebytes and Best Buy, neither one of which really wanted to take responsibility for the problem! I finally had to do a chargeback to get my money. Very unfortunate on both company's parts.

This item is very good it blocks out unwanted threats

Feel a bit safer when I’m online shopping and doing homework

It was a big disappointment to install this software on my computer and have someone hack into it and virtually shut it down. Computers are expensive.

very hard to intal it doesn't allow you to install it 100 percent. each time its getting more difficult. and there's no live presentative to walk you through.

Great product. Less than $10 per device per year. So cheap, I bought multiple and will use one each coming years.

Malwarebytes' new katana engine, offers increased speed and scanning depths, while using less of your system's resources.The new interface is very simple, direct and easy to use for users of all skills. Most of the time you will not even know that malwarebytes is running in the background until you need it.While advanced users can go into the settings and change most aspects of the software, to fit their needs.  Regular use of this software and scans can keep your device running faster, cleaner and extend battery life by removing PUPs, and ransomware that can hog your resources and charge you to remove their issues and malicious content.  The software Works best when it can scan your system on a daily basis. Not only does it look for signatures of known viruses and malware, but it also uses the daily scans to create a snapshot or profile of your system's natural processes. With this snapshot Malwarebytes can look for anomalies and determine if they are harmful.  Most of the scans I performed on my PC, Android phone and chromebook took less than 2 minutes. With the hardware acceleration option set, in the settings on my PC, scans were just over a minute. Malwarebytes is a great stand alone internet security option, but can also run alongside most other popular Antivirus and Firewall options for an added level of protection. The software scans all the locations in your system that typically harbor activity surrounding malware and viruses, like the memory, startup items, registry, and file systems.  On demand scans can also be done on any drive, folder or file, by right clicking the mouse over the item, and selecting Malwarebytes from the context menu. An entire hard drive scan can take much longer than the daily threat scan, based on your system hardware and size of the drive. It took my PC an hour to scan a 1TB hard drive.  With the Premium version of Malwarebytes you get real time protection for adware, malware, exploit attacks, ransom attacks, and malicious websites.I tried searching for some questionable websites that typically contain malicious items. The real-time protection kicked in by blocking the websites before the page even loaded in my browser. Plus, Malwarebytes identified the specific threat on each website. I had some pages blocked due to malware, PUPs, Trojans, and malvertising.One really cool feature of Malwarebytes, is the ability to show more information about anything and everything detected by the software. Just click on the item detected, and you will be taken to a webpage with more details and information about the item. The app's "allow list" can be propagated from scans, by selecting the ignore button on items that you want to keep, or by hitting the "add" button in the settings view of the "allow list". If you are serious about learning more about cybersecurity, the app will direct you to news and current information in the field. This link can be found in the settings, or menu based on the device being used.  The smartphone app gives you an app manager that lets you uninstall apps, and view the privacy audit, which gives a detailed list of every app on your phone, and what permissions it has been granted on your device. The security audit gives you a quick look at potential vulnerabilities on your phone. So far, I have been very impressed with the real time protection, scan results and small footprint this software takes up. I have seen new items found on my devices through threat scans, and have been pleasantly surprised at how well the real time protection works with any browser.

Does it’s job as advertised. But slows up my i5 Intel laptop on boot up . Very frustrating to have to have wait almost 5 minutes to use my laptop.

Seems to be working but have not noticed any bump in operating speed.

I love marlwarebytes. It's easy to use. I've used it on a PC for years. I recommend it.

Malwarebytes is good at detecting and removing unwanted viruses.
