The Malwarebytes announced the release 5.6.3.277 of its eponymous software which, as it turns out, is not only anti-malware but a fully functional anti-virus with real-time protection and much more.
Version 5.5 is designed as a solution that can "replace your traditional antivirus," the company said. So the new application includes all the features that were previously available separately: Anti-Malware, Anti-Exploit, Anti-Ransomware, Website Protection, and Remediation (recovery function).
In addition, the development team seems to have focused on the performance of the application, since they report that the 5.5 version has the ability to scan the computer four times faster than before.
What is also very important to mention is that Malwarebytes software still works very well with other security products, so you can install it as an extra layer of security on your computer.

Although the press releases will range from very select to rare, I said I'd pass...because sometimes the editors hide.
