Software Update: Emsisoft Anti-Malware 2018.3.1

Emsisoft released version 2018.3 of Anti-Malware last week and a small update has since appeared. A license for Anti-Malware costs four bucks, which becomes cheaper if a license is purchased for a longer period of time or for more computers. The program is suitable for Windows 7 or higher and can be tested for 30 days. After those thirty days, it switches to free mode, which can scan and delete, but offers no real-time protection. In version 2018.3, among other things, the option has been added to make a self-starting USB stick, which can scan an infected system in case of emergency. In the update, some crashes have also been fixed.
