What Malware tools should I use
Tesla uses a suite of different software tools to clean customer’s computers depending on the nature of the infection.
MBAM, or Malwarebytes is one of these pieces of software. it is a fantastic anti-malware product from Malwarebytes.
This software is very good in its freeware version, clearing up nearly all of the problems we have found on customers computer systems in the last few months.
Where it really comes into its own is if you buy a license to get the following features:
- Realtime protection – Stops these programs from getting on your computer in the first place, means you dont have to remember to scan the pc yourself
- Scheduled scanning – If there’s a “best time” for a scan to run on your machine, set it and forget it
- Scheduled updating – You dont need to keep checking you are still up to date, as long as you have access to the internet, the program will take care of itself.
The company also has a threat center, which you can visit to get a heads up of what is currently circulating, find it at this link. The site is very clean and loads quickly.
If you would like to purchase the software, please use this link so they know Tesla sent you. We can always come out and clean your machines of viruses and malware, but by having this software, you may save yourself callout fees and unnecessary dowtime.
