Emsisoft Anti-Malware can keep your computer safe from software threats. This application can not only scan your disks and RAM for malware but also performs real-time protection against them. Additionally, it has a built-in firewall to impede unauthorized applications to exchange data over the network.

The application has a nice multi-language interface. Its tab-based layout helps you navigate through the features easily. Besides, most of the operations demand minimal intervention of the user, as most of them are performed with just a click of a button. Luckily, there are various types of scans to choose from, depending on the circumstances. A quick scan examines only running programs and malware traces. Similarly, you can perform a custom scan for which you can configure parameters. Finally, there’s a malware scan, which I recommend because it inspects the whole system. Another way to use the program is to take the advantage of its integration into Windows contextual menu to scan a given file. Once threats are detected, you’re allowed to decide what to do with them, including ignoring, erasing or sending them to quarantine.

I mostly appreciate the possibility of creating a set of rules to govern this program´s behavior. Thus, you can tell the program to keep an eye on specific applications or simply block them altogether. Moreover, you can do the same for given Internet addresses by establishing surf rules that ban some domains in particular. more
