malwarebytes without the premium trial version

Most people are simply never going to find that unless they come on here and ask for help (as I did). Yes, I found out how to disable it, but it's REALLY hard to find (Settings > Account Details > 'Deactivate' button at the bottom). To me, this is exactly the kind of behavior I use anti-malware software to PREVENT! On more than one occasion now, when I've installed the latest version, it's installed a free trial of software, without even asking me! I am starting to find this program a bit of a nuisance - it's almost acting like malware itself! The 14-day trial is also useful in a pinch when you're sure something is lurking on your system but aren't quite sure what.Endpoint Detection & Response for Servers

With that in mind, you can grab a significant discount on Malwarebytes Premium licenses, cutting up to 25% from a two-year license, or just check out the 14-day trial to see what you think. One thing to note is that Malwarebytes Premium licenses are per-device, meaning you'll need to license each machine you have. There aren't many security brands that I'd call trustworthy, but of the rare ones that do exist, Malwarebytes sits up there with the best. Malwarebytes also runs a public bug bounty program where anyone can report software vulnerabilities and be awarded cash prizes between $100 and $1,000, depending on the severity and urgency of the reported vulnerability. For example, in 2016, they were privately notified of a few server-side vulnerabilities and had them fixed within days, then disclosed the incident on the Malwarebytes blog. Malwarebytes works quickly to fix issues and is transparent about any difficulties they may encounter. In addition, it's preemptive, so there's never a period of vulnerability.

Malwarebytes Premium offers real-time protection, which is always on in the background and actively scans files, executables, and websites for malware, ransomware, exploits, and potentially unwanted programs (PUPs), preventing infections from happening in the first place. Even if you scan every single day, there will always be a period between scans where your data and system are vulnerable. Malwarebytes Free only does manual scans, meaning it can only catch malware after you've been infected. When it comes to malware, it's safer and more effective to catch potential infections before they take root than diagnosing and cleaning an infected system. Investing in robust locks and alarms is cheaper than replacing everything when your home is burglarized. Taking care of your car is cheaper than repairing it when it breaks down. Exercise and good hygiene are cheaper than visits to the ER.
