Hello! Can Hitman Pro detect and remove PUP's and Adware?
and should I get Hitman Pro + Malwarebytes?
People do not recommend this because apparently Hitman Pro is better than MBAM and if you get MBAM you will just slow down your PC. :/

Thanks! :D :D :D

If you're specifically trying to remove PUPs I'd choose Malwarebytes over HitmanPro. For removing actual malware, Malwarebytes would be the last scanner I'd use.

It can detect but depends on the type of PUP's variant; remember that Hitman Pro uses some engines that are likely to bypass adware and PUP's.

Although nothing wrong if you will use it, MBAM on the other can manage to detect PUP and Adware efficiently but also it depends due to signature database size.
