Discuss Malwarebytes expires. What antivirus should I install?

[numike]

My malwarebytes premium expires today and I am looking for a replacement. Please do not make it to complicated in that I am not computer savvy as many of you on here are. Any suggestions are appreciated. Thank you

Emsisoft, Kaspersky are good replacements. If you are only using MBAM, then these 2 are better and you cannot go wrong with either of them.
Note- please install only 1 of Kaspersky and emisoft as both are full anti-malware/antivirus/security software if you are planning to go with either of them.

No problem will be free and it serves to scan without any problem. Unless you are interested in keeping it in real time. But if you have an antivirus, I don't see it necessary.

If you were using Malwarebytes Premium alone.... that's bad. Test data indicate that it's pretty suckass.

So virtually any of the well-known AVs will give you better protection.

I recommend: Bitdefender, ESET or Norton.

Just in case you do not know,there is premium Internet security programs for sale on E-bay and Amazon,If your computer handled Malwarebytes without noticeable slowdown,pretty sure your computer can handle just about any program as Malwarebytes is a resource hog,I agree with stefanos Eset ,runs very light or Kaspersky {probally the best }, both are very good and better than Malwarebytes GL.

 

[Seyyed Akram]

F-Secure at its current state (i.e. very very light yet strong) is really recommendable. Or you can go with Eset.

 

[Digmor Crusher]

Don't use Malwarebytes as your main protection, it is perfectly fine as secondary protection which I recommend most people should have as I've yet to see a program that protects 100%.

Also, be very careful buying any software on Ebay, lots of cracked and/or fake versions.

If you were using Malwarebytes as secondary security a possible replacement is Crystal Security. Its developer is a member here, and it has done well over at the malware testing hub.
