Malwarebytes’ is anti-malware, not anti-virus. I suggest you download AVG Free anti-virus. http://free.avg.com/
For spyware/malware/adware scans, Download, install and update and scan with the following free (you can have multiple ant-spyware programs isntalled, but just one anti-virus):
Spybot Search & Destroy from http://www.safer-networking.org
Ad-Aware 2008 Free from http://www.lavasoft.com
SUPERAntiSpyware Free Edition from http://www.superantispyware.com or http://www.download.com
Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware…
Valid downloads of Malwarebytes only come from these sites:
http://www.download.com
http://www.majorgeeks.com

Malwarebytes is one of the best anti-malware products in the business. I have it installed on my PC, real-time protection and its blocked junk. I also did tests and it removed just about every piece of malware I had on a virtual machine. Boclean is just a real-time protection program, there is no scanner.
One should never use MalwareBytes Anti-malware (MBAM) as your only anti-virus program.
MBAM is a specialised removal tool to deal with approximatly 1400 of the latest…and toughest to remove threats:

That’s 1400 out of the over one half million (500,000) virus and malware threats out there:

While MBAM is excellent at what it does, it is not a comphrehensive anti-malware solution and should only be used in addition to good general-purpose anti-virus and anti-spyware software.
From the horses mouth: Malwarebytes’ Anti-Malware is an anti-malware application that can thoroughly remove even the most advanced malware. It includes a number of features, including a built in protection monitor that blocks malicious processes before they even start.
