MALWAREBYTES REMOVES 1 BILLIONTH INFECTION


It’s always nice to read some exciting news from the people who develop our favorite apps, and the team over at Malwarebytes had a big announcement in their forumsyesterday morning. In less than a year and a half, Anti-Malware has removed more than one billion infected items from users’ computers.

That’s an impressive figure, and a strong testimony to the quality of their software. Anti-malware has been an indispensable part of my technician’s toolkit since it was released and it keeps getting better. The app is so popular now that it’s hard to believe I considered it one of my “lesser-known malware apps” back in July of last year.

To get your hands on a copy of a truly great free application, head over to their site and download it now.
