It looks like you get 14 days of Malwarebytes Premium for free; if you don't buy it then all the premium features are disabled and you're left with the free version that just disinfects: https://www.malwarebytes.com/trial/ - For 14 days, Malwarebytes for Window will keep malware from infecting your computer for free. After that, it reverts to a limited scanner. - TRIAL PERIOD Prevent malware from infecting your computer for 14 days with real-time protection, anti-ransomware technology, and malicious website blocking. - DO NOTHING Malwarebytes for Windows reverts to a manual scanner that detects and cleans up malware infections only when you run a scan. You can upgrade to the premium version any time. Did earlier versions of malwarebytes free offer any kind of protection or was it strictly an after-the-fact find & remove malware product?
