Hour one: Malwarebytes. Adam Kujawa, Head of Malware Intelligence.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware removes and detects malware that even the biggest AV apps fail to...in fact, all of the big AV company tech support departments recommend Malwarebytes to their customers in addition to their own AV software. That's because Malwarebytes is not a replacement for anti-virus technology because you need both to properly protect your PC. So, just like having a seatbelt to be safe on the road isn't enough anymore, you need two different technologies, the seatbelt AND the airbag, to properly defend yourself in your car. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware catches the zero day, polymorphic and malware in the wild that standard AV technologies were not built to handle.
