Malwarebytes Anti-Malware already was a great, sturdy product, and proof of this are the millions of downloads and high user rating all over the Internet. As such, its latest version, 1.60, does not come with too many fixes. Improvements, on the other hand, are plenty.

On the list of stuff newly introduced in this build there is a new technology (Malwarebytes Chameleon), which is designed to keep the application running even if an infection attempts to block it. Paying customers also get incremental updates and the ability to protect the settings of key programs with a password.
