Re: Adwcleaner vs Malwarebytes

Greetings,

AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes 3.0 do not always share the same exact detections "list".

Please take a look at this: https://forums.malwarebytes.com/topic/225289-announcing-adwcleaner-71/?tab=comments#comment-1230229

Thanks.

Re: Adwcleaner vs Malwarebytes

Malwarebytes is much better, they have good community support

Re: Adwcleaner vs Malwarebytes

I think Malwarebytes is better

Re: Adwcleaner vs Malwarebytes

Referring to the FAQ linked above.

Are both AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes needed?

  • Yes!
  • AdwCleaner and Malwarebytes are designed to work well together
  • AdwCleaner specializes in adware and PUPs removal and does not offer real-time protection. It does a more thorough job of cleaning the left-over traces, OS configurations, and system modifications caused by malware.
  • Malwarebytes focuses more on delivering both remediation and real-time signature-less behavior protection and attack vector blocking. A free 14-day trial of Malwarebytes 3 is available to all AdwCleaner users.
