Ad-aware and Spybot if they could be considered as such. MBAM more recently. Zemana currently.

**Please remember that this is your first or first few seond opinion scanners, NOT the ones you like or use now.**

MalwareBytes Antimalware. Was recommended everywhere so i gave it a try. With the ugly GUI.

I mean, back in the day it was great. When all softwares had that simple interface. Simply now, advanced then. Now, with all the material design stuff, and the designing softwares getting constantly updated, it's much more easier to create better looking UI's. And simple is seen as old. If i could correct myself, i'd remove "ugly" and say "outdated".

Around 10 years pass 2004-2014 and now I use MalwareBytes ! I also tried out Spybot Search and Destroy but currently use just one, MBAM free for scans and removal.
