    Well, not here at NBR but at WildersSecurity.com.

    MBAM CEO RubbeRDuckY (also known as Marcin Kleczynski) has come up with a great 50% off deal for the first 100 persons who use the following code; WILDERS100. ( link)
    This discount deal has been made for WilderSecurity forum members, so this is a FYI for all those members who hang out here at NBR also. ;)

    Malwarebytes'Antimalware is one of the best, if not THE best secondary malware scanner for Windows systems.
    The full/paid-for version offers real-time protection and is supposed to be used besides your regular AV.
    MBAM costs you money once, they offer a lifetime license for consumers.

    A license normally costs $24,95/€18,18.
    Apply the discount code and you'll have an excellent program for only $12,48/€9,09.

    As some of you know, I only use free security software but this is an offer I immediately made use of.
    It's only for 100 customers so be fast if you want to make use of it.
    cheers.

    Won't the real-time shields of Malwarebyte's interfere with a regular AV?

    No it will not. MBAM's realtime aspects are not typical AV style. They are to be used in conjunction, neither is a replacement for the other.

    Someone correct me if I'm wrong. I don't use any paid products.

    Sorry not completely true...
    If your visit their support forum you see there can be some freezing issues with some AV's and then you have to set exclusions once:
    FAQ - Common Issues, Questions, and their Solutions - Malwarebytes Forum

    Still it is a great product, I'm using it and would recommend it.

    I'm with you. Why in the world would I pay for this stuff?
    Besides, MSE is more than enough.
