You'd be surprised at how many people don't know about Malwarebytes (even I was surprised). I think it's also good to partner with this very smart group of people who are doing good work. Also the partnership includes more than just a website.

Heck, I'll just say it: No AV company will catch everything. Not partnering is just doing a dis-service to your customers.

Oh, I just realized it's more than just marketing/advertising. It's a tacit admission by both companies that their own products might miss something. No surprise to most of us. From: Carl Houseman [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, April 22, 2010 10:11 AM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: RE: "Announcements" from our sponsor! Isn't Malwarebytes for scanning/cleaning already free? Is there any functionality here that wasn't easily possible before? Looks like not much more than a marketing/advertising partnership.

Does anyone know if the Malware Bytes download referenced on that page is truly free for all to use like VIPRE Rescue is? I'm specifically interested in corporate/business use.

As so many of us tend to use MalwareBytes in addition to VIPRE and other apps to deal with infested systems, it seems Sunbelt has intered into a partnership with them: http://www.sunbeltsoftware.com/Press/Releases/?id=346 -- Richard D.
