Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (MBAM) is a computer application that finds and removes malware. MBAM claims to be intended to find malware that other anti-virus and anti-spyware programs generally miss, including rogue security software, adware, and spyware. MBAM scans in batch mode, rather than scanning all files opened, reducing interference if on-demand anti-malware software is also running on the computer.
