I am always afraid using any kind of anti-malware software as I have heard earlier that they themselves act as malware pop-ups and leads to system shutdown. Recently, my system was badly infected with virus and my antivirus software was not able to recover it. Then I take help of Click4Support and they along with other treatment install malwarebytes anti-malware tool in my computer. Then they ran a full-scan and since then my system is performing nicely. So, I want to ask should I remove that tool now as I afraid that they may affect the performance also or is it fine to have it on my computer.

It's totally safe. It doesn't have any impact on performance.( I use it myself )

A good setup if you get infected is to run malwarbytes, ADWcleaner, JRT, and your antivirus software.

I think Malwarebytes, Hitman Pro and ccleaner is enough.

while it is good yes, if there is any personal files or info on a pc that is infected would you not want to make sure that all possible traces are gone though.
