MalwareBytes is a great and respected anti-malware product.  The registered version is preferred as it offers real-time protection which is of paramount importance.

Even if you already have real-time protection and scanning through another security product, MalwareBytes free version can also be great alternate scanner.

Having multiple scanners installed can help with malware protection as some scanners may pick up malware that others don't.

Whilst having multiple products offering real-time protection should be done cautiously, having multiple (manual) scanners would be a good practice.

One of our employees got something on their laptop that prevented it from running or updating.  The exe wouldn't load at all.

There's a trick around this though, and it worked great.  Go into the program folder and rename the exe to something else.  Then you'll be able to run it without a problem.  I believe there's a different exe for the updates, so you can rename that one too if you need to update it.

If it won't install, rename mbam-setup.exe to something else.

I was surprised when it worked, but it worked like a charm!

Just a note for others here, this sometime may be a sign that malware is trying to prevent anti-malware from doing it's job.

Malware can try disable known anti-malware products, or prevent them from being installed by identifying the anti-malware installer program file name.

Renaming the anti-malware file name can help get around this, but should also be done cautiously.
