Types of malware that Malwarebytes can remove

[rocco]

Hi. What type of malware can MALWAREBYTES remove? I know it can kill spyware, adware and rogue malware. But can it also kill keyloggers, hijackers, backdoors, worms, trojans, dialers ?

Yes, all those you named plus rootkits to boot. That doesn't mean it will catch every nasty of one particular type every time though, as all malware is updated and modified rather frequently to bypass detection, so it is always good practice to use a good antivirus and keep it up to date, a good firewall, and a good anti-spyware/anti-malware program. Keeping other freebie tools around that you can use as on-demand scanners to scan with at least once a month, if not once a week with is also a good idea.

MBAM does not go after malware by family type , it goes after everything that is either new or poorly detected by most AV applications . MBAM is designed to work synergistically with your existing antivirus software without conflicting with it .
