Important Info on
Malwarebytes
It's important to remember when it comes to firewalls and
antivirus, that you can only have one of each type of program running at once.
Running multiple programs of each type can cause conflicts that make you less
safe. Unfortunately, not every security suite can catch every threat. That's why
your sheriff needs a deputy. For that I recommend Malwarebytes. It's capable of
finding and removing threats that other software misses. Plus, the free version
won't conflict with your existing antivirus. To get started, click the white
Free Download button on the Malwarebytes home page. You'll want to leave the
"Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" button checked after install. That way,
you'll be sure to get the latest version of the program when it's released. -

One thing to note is that the free version of Malwarebytes has no
passive protection. That means you'll have to manually run it when you want to check your system. I would do this
once a month. The paid
version includes a real-time protection module, but
the paid, pro version will conflict with
the antivirus you already
have. When you first install Malwarebytes, I recommend performing a full
scan. For later scans, a quick scan will usually do the trick. - See more at: http://www.komando.com/downloads/category.aspx?id=6151&utm_medium=nl&utm_source=asd&utm_content=2013-12-01-article_0_0-cta&page=2#sthash.R8q95TBD.dpuf
The free version of Malwarebytes won't update its virus list automatically, so make sure you
do that before you run every scan. The option can be found in the Updates
tab.
One more thing: The free version of Malwarebytes is a great tool
in the endless fight against malicious software, but if you're using the free
version make sure you have always-on antivirus installed as well. You never know
when a digital threat will strike.
