One thing that we and most computer technicians like about SUPERAntiSpyware is the portability. The heuristic is an advanced optio to analyze the files for suspicious code rather than just depending on their definition for detection. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware by default scans the memory, startup, registry, files and additional times against heuristic. Quick scan only scans the common areas where malware normally resides on the computer while the full scan takes much longer to finish because every file will be checked. There are three scan modes but only two options (quick and full scan) are available to free users. After installation, make sure you run an update check because the free version does not come with an auto-update feature. They offer a free version without real-time protection and automatic updates where you can use it on any home computer to scan and remove any found malware. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, short for MBAM is one of the most popular antimalware software available today. Instead, you can try out some of the free anti malware programs listed below which are much lighter and doesn’t conflict with an antivirus software. Antivirus programs are heavy that comes with over a hundred megabytes plus some malwares are capable of bypassing antivirus detection. If you suspect a malware infection on your computer, don’t be too quick to install as many antivirus software you can because it may create more problems and conflicts. Most of the malwares today are a combination of different malware categories so that it is powerful enough to achieve a high infection rate and stays installed for a longer time without being detected or discovered by security software.

You don’t find a lot of spyware nowadays which is why some of the well known antispyware programs such as a-squared Anti-Malware, AVG Anti-Spyware, Lavasoft Ad-Aware and Webroot Spy Sweeper which has turned into a full anti-virus software or some have renamed to anti-malware. Spyware is just one type of a malware that self installs on a computer and spies on what you do on your computer.

Scanning the infected computer from safe mode with Spybot and Ad-Aware is usually enough to remove most if not all of the spyware infection. Many years ago there were many antispyware software available to use when malwares wasn’t so sophisticated.
