This post can and should be edited by users like you :)
 
Will this replace my Antivirus?
No. You still need Antivirus (Microsoft Security Essentials is one example). This is Anti-Malware (Works better than any Anti-Virus). The two items complement each other and fills the gaps left by the other one.

Is this a lifetime license?
YES

How many computers can I use this on?
One. Buy multiple copies to use on more than one system

Can I move this to another machine?
Yes. Uninstall from the first machine and then install on the second

How is this diffrent from the Free copy?
Real time protection, Automatic updating, etc. Go read their website for more details

If this sells out, or you cannot wait for snailmail to get your license you can ALWAYS get this directly from malwarebytes for $15 by buying through this link:

Was about to ask the exact same question! xD

I'm currently using Avast, but I heard Microsoft Security Essentials is good, perhaps even better.

dealnabber 10-09-2012 10:35 PM

I've been using it with Norton 360 for a year and it's perfectly compatible. Been virus/malware-free this whole time.

Different opinions out there but I think the best antivirus one must pay for is bitdefender 2013. $90 for 3yr subscription for 1 computer. If your going the free route your best bet is MSE+noscript. Grab MBAM free edition to run a scan every so often if you feel the need.

It was $10 back in June. Wonder if I should wait for another $10 deal to pick up 2.

I use the free Microsoft Security Essentials ( It is actually really good!) with this. Have been using them for a year now and things looks flawless...

waveofdestiny 10-09-2012 11:07 PM

Can you install this to a thumbdrive so you can use it on multiple computers? Or is it one liscense only for one computer?

The new AVG Free 2013 is the best. I spent a half an hour of research on the various alternatives before downloading.

Microsoft Security Essentials + MBAM = success. I've not had a security issue since going to this format and far less resource intensive than AVG. Though I've only heard but not tested that AVG 2013 Free slimmed down to just the AV and no other components is extremely light. But obviously AVG without the other components is not exactly ideal for all.

micliu 10-10-2012 12:19 AM

I've got it paired up with a free after rebate copy of Kaspersky Internet Security 2013, which has excellent zero-day attack blocking and heuristic detection. Definitely wouldn't run the pair together if you're not ready to tweak many settings in KIS and a few in MBAM to make sure everything runs smoothly with no problems.

Prior to the 2013 releases I would have recommended running MBAM next to free after rebate Norton Internet Security. But NIS 2013 is super buggy right now. Not sure how it was given a thumbs up for release after having been a good product for the last few years.

Collapse 10-10-2012 01:04 AM

Run Kaspersky TDSSkiller (free to download [kaspersky.com]) for rootkits and Mbam will take care of the rest.

Slickd3aler 10-10-2012 01:06 AM

I don't know if I trust Malwarebytes like I used to. I had the dreadful Funmoods crap stuck on my laptop and several scans with Malwarebytes did not detect anything. Spyhunter was the only one that detected the crap and also spyware cookies on my laptop!

Yes, if you set the exclusions in Kaspersky and ignored files in MWB correctly. Running it alongside KIS 2013 now.

You remove it from the old computer and install on the new computer using the same key.

Also, the Wiki has been updated with the usual questions.

Nope. It has to be installed on the computer, free or pro.

If the machine is already infected, you may want to use the following to get malwarebytes loaded and scanning:

I use Avast!, I've had better experiences with that than AVG, and I hate Norton. I put Avast on all machines I work on. At the office we use ESET and that works well, too.

WalterJ187 10-10-2012 07:06 AM

Newegg to the rescue; checking out with Tiger Direct was a nightmare so I gave up. Maybe their site was getting hammered.

Some references say it is a great antivirus; others say it is not an antivirus. What is it?
I have scanned with the free version for several years and it has never found anything. Is that because MES does such a good job, or because it doesn't find much.

Not sure what you are referencing with "MES" but Malwarebytes won't find anything if you are not infected with malware... or at least that's the idea. If that's the case, it's kinda hard to criticize the program for performing correctly.

The free version of Malwarebytes has saved my butt a few times. I ended up buying the Pro version mainly to support the company that has helped me over the years. I run free Microsoft Security Essentials actively and only run Malwarebytes on demand. Honestly I feel like I don't need any of this software much these days, as I haven't had any problems for a long time. It's more for piece of mind I guess, and some assurance against getting personal info (like online banking) swiped.

I bought MBAM for $10 in June, but this is still a good deal for $13. Just buy it if you're thinking about it. Thanks OP, +4.

blacksoxing 10-10-2012 03:56 PM

It is now my belief that SD gets kickbacks for posting this....

Every month there's like 3 deals concerning the $10-13 dollar range of this...usually with something free too!

So it's no longer a "Slickdeal"....but just a great deal resumed! (or quite possibly something that should be the new retail price or it...)

I do not believe that is true in this case. At least I don't think that is SDs motivation in this case. $13 for software that normally costs $25 is slick!

:shake: Soooooo not true. Per their FAQ [malwarebytes.org]:

Quote:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is not meant to be a replacement for antivirus software. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a complementary but essential program which detects and removes zero-day malware and "Malware in the Wild". This includes malicious programs and files, such as viruses, worms, trojans, rootkits, dialers, spyware, and rogue applications that many antivirus programs do not detect or cannot fully remove. It is important to note that Malwarebytes Anti-Malware works well and should run alongside antivirus software without conflicts. In some rare instances, exclusions may need to be set for your specific antivirus product to achieve the best possible system performance.
