How to Activate Your Download

Malware and Viruses — Real-Time Detection
Continuously monitors for malware, viruses, Trojans, worms, and other malicious software in real time. Detects and quarantines threats before they can execute — not just after infection. Malwarebytes finds and removes threats on 40% of devices that already have another antivirus installed.

Ransomware Protection
Stops ransomware attacks before they can encrypt your files. Ransomware is one of the fastest-growing threats for both home users and businesses — Malwarebytes's behavioural detection layer identifies and blocks ransomware activity in its earliest stages.

Spyware and Adware Removal
Detects and removes spyware programs that monitor your activity, steal passwords, and transmit personal data without your knowledge. Also clears adware that hijacks browser behaviour, inserts unwanted ads, and degrades performance.

Exploit Blocking
Shields legitimate software — browsers, PDF readers, document editors — against exploit attacks that use known vulnerabilities to deliver malware. Exploit blocking is effective even against zero-day attacks targeting unpatched software.

Browser Guard — Ad Blocking, Scam Protection, Tracker Blocking
All Standard plans include Malwarebytes Browser Guard, the ad and scam blocker extension. Available for Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari — it blocks ads, trackers, malicious websites, phishing pages, and tech support scams before they load. Browser Guard boosts browsing speed by up to 4x.

Phishing and Malicious Website Blocking
Blocks access to phishing websites, fake login pages, malware-distributing domains, and scam sites in real time — before the page loads. Protection applies across all browsers, not just the Browser Guard extension.

Scheduled and On-Demand Scanning
Run full system scans on a schedule or on demand to check for existing infections. Malwarebytes also scans on installation and can detect and remove malware that other security software has missed — even if your device is already infected.

Lightweight — Runs in the Background
Designed to have minimal impact on system performance. Malwarebytes runs efficiently in the background without impacting system performance, using minimal resources while providing real-time protection. No slowdowns, no pop-ups, no intrusive prompts.

Security Advisor Dashboard
Security Advisor is an all-in-one cyberprotection dashboard highlighting your security status in real-time, so you're better informed and empowered to act. See the health of your protection, review recent detections, and manage scan schedules from a single clean interface.

ARM Device Support
Expanded protection now supporting ARM devices — including newer Windows on ARM laptops and Apple Silicon Macs — ensuring full protection on the latest hardware platforms.

24/7 Human Support and 60-Day Money-Back Guarantee
Malwarebytes provides 24/7 expert human support — not just chatbots — and backs every Standard subscription with a 60-day money-back guarantee. If you are not satisfied for any reason, you can request a full refund within 60 days of purchase.

Compatible with Existing Antivirus Software
Malwarebytes Standard is designed to run alongside existing antivirus software — adding a second layer of protection without conflicts. Use it with Windows Defender, Norton, McAfee, or any other security tool already installed on your device.
