Any one tried Malaware??

"Extremely small and ultra fast malware scanner"

 

So this thing only detects and does not remove? Why not just download their free version of their anti malware program scan and delete with that? Sure it would take a bit longer but hey its gone and not sitting on the PC still.

 

just 1MB download , U can either relax by knowing ur pc is clean or worried if it finds something.

 

i think its a good security addon
just like hitman pro

 

I used it on my friends infected PC.
It detected 14 infections.
Then I used Malwarebytes AntiMalware, it detected 49 infections and deleted it.
I used Malware again, it detected 1 infection.
I used revo uninstalled and ccleaner to get rid of junk and unused programms on his computer and it showed as clean.

But I am not impressed with Malware

 

Great name they've choosen

 

Malaware is superb
It detected many infections that other AVs couldnt detect even HITMAN pro couldnt detect anyone of those.
I uploaded it to virus total and got 4/40 with drweb, sophos, authentium, Fsecure.Another surprise is that a2 didnt detect this in virus total.

 

Hi Franklin, I executed that malware u PM me and scanned with MalAware
This was the result.

 

I assume it's always up-to-date?

 

Up-to-date in terms of what the signatures or the product's build(Version 1.0.0.4 - 12/15/2009) it always notifies if you are using the outdated version

 

Does it run in the background like A2's Free version?

Doesn't seem too useful to me if I can't clean straight away with it alone...

 

Thank you icr

Do you mean I need A² Free to clean what MalAware found?

 

What is this some new trend of "we'll find it, but obtain/buy our other products to get you running again!"? So it's a download-able advertisement...uh, thanks. Yes, I'm being a sarcastic pain, because I see no sense in this kind of thing. I don't even like Hitman Pro for this very reason. Either make a good free product that finds AND removes threats (whether real-time or not), and recoup your money with another of your products, or make a paid product that does the same.

 

It doesn't run in background just an on-demand
