Interview with Malwarebytes' founder, Marcin Kleczynski

[malexous]

Malwarebytes started its life as a company in 2004 as a one-man operation, but it wasn’t until four years later that its star product was released, simply called 'Anti-Malware'. Since then the company has rapidly grown to establish itself as a serious player in the computer security industry.

Based on a successful freemium model where users can clean already infected machines for free or get real-time protection for a one-time fee, Malwarebytes Anti-Malware already counts hundreds of millions of downloads and over five billion infections cleaned.

We recently had the chance to chat with founder and CEO Marcin Kleczynski about the company’s early days, the evolution of malware, his views on the industry, and more.

I read the 2 webpages and then the Reddit AMA. I found the latter to be more interesting...and the dude is just 23. He also seems to be in favor of Avast..

I look forward to reading the interview.
I have printed it out for later.
Thanks, malexous.

PS - I seriously enjoyed the first line in the AMA, where the guy writes in, "I was doing my monthly parental computer fix and Avira wanted me to uninstall MB. Guess who ended up getting uninstalled instead?"
