Hello all,

Malwarebytes or Hitman pro? With both having their positives and negatives, what would be best?
I have both of them installed as trial and I have couple of weeks to decide which licence I would purchase. Anybody who would share their experience with both products would be great.

Thank you very much.
 
Malwarebytes , because Hitman Pro uses the Bitdefender and Kaspersky engines.

An Malwarebytes removes infections that the others don't.

Apparently Zemana Antimalware is a hybrid cross between the two and showing a lot of promise.
