install malwarebytes free without premium trial

I have yet to ever be able to get Microsoft’s System Restore working when I tried to use it and don’t even bother with it these days and immediately switch it off on all drives. In addition, if Microsoft stuffs your computer with a dodgy update you won’t be saved by Malwarebytes or any other malware protection if you can’t even boot up your PC. Sorry but the best protection against all malware is to image your computer regularly so that you can always return to a recent safe image.

This time, it installed the Free Version. One issue I did have before was that Malwarebytes would automatically install the Premium Trial Version without giving you the option to opt out during the installation. I currently have Version 2.x on my main computer and decided to install Version 3 (current as of this writing – 3.-10103) to see if there were any improvements. Eventually, I realized it was a legitimate program and decided to give it a shot. When I first heard of Malwarebytes, I refused to download it because there was a fake scanner program going around at the same time with a similar name. I stopped using it after that and never went back. I ended up fixing more problems caused by Ad-Aware than by the malware itself. A complete overhaul of the interface, and the program was never the same again. That is, until they came out with the 2007 version. In the beginning, my first choice for anti-malware was Ad-Aware.
