Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware

I got infected by antivirus 360 recently. I keep getting damn popups and it changes my firewall and VirusScan settings everytime I log on. I simply wanted to know if Malwarebytes is a trusty spyware remover? I'm not great with that kind of thing.

    I've used it before to remove spyware and had no ill affects afterward.

    I've used it to remove our recent infections of AntiVirus 2009. While I hate the idea that I need yet another anti-spyware/malware program to keep my system clean, it does seem to work well.

    It's pretty good. I picked up some crap from who knows where recently and as part of the lavasoft forum recommended cure used Malwarebytes to clean up the majority.

    Actually, if you've gotten some malware or a virus on your system posting a thread in the lavasoft hijackthis logs forum is a great place to sort out help.

    Just to echo what everybody's been saying, MBAM is cool and a painless way to get rid of Vundo/Virtumonde/AntiVirusXP/2008/2009/whatever.
