Top 5 Anti-Malware programs for Windows

Introduction

Here we go, the top 5 anti-malware list. First of all, I want to tell you, what is Anti-Malware. Anti-malware – is a software, that protects you from malicious programs like viruses, trojans, adware, spyware and so on. You may say: “Oh, such as Kaspersky, Norton or McAfee”. No, those programs are classified as antivirus software, they are good, but against viruses, trojans, crypts. Here you can find out more about the best antiviruses. Anti-malware programs are more suitable for such types of threats as adware, browser hijacker, and spyware, which are popular nowadays. Those kinds of malware are not dangerous for your PC but harmful for your privacy and your purse. Moreover, adware and spyware can download viruses and trojans or leave them access to your PC. So anti-malware is more functional then antivirus.

Programs

In many removal guides, you can see, that the most recommended programs are SpyHunter, AntiSpyware, AdGuard. Also, I want to add two less popular anti-malware: Stronghold AntiMalware and Zemana. Let’s speak about each one separately.

SpyHunter

The first one will be SpyHunter, the product of Enigma Software Group. SpyHunter – is an anti-malware program, that mostly focuses on spyware, ransomware, popups, and adware. It can scan your PC, detect many kinds of threats (including viruses, trojans, adware) and remove them. Besides, WiperSoft protects your PC from the net attacks. This is a good anti-malware since it has got a good threat database, that updates every day. WiperSoft has got a free scanner, which you may see before on the banners, but it isn’t free at all, you can buy the full version for 39.99$.
