Er is een nieuwe bètaversie van Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 2.1 uitgekomen. Dit programma is gericht op het bestrijden van spy-, ad- en malware. Het is echter vooral gericht op het verwijderen van kwaadaardige software die zich als bonafide antivirus- of antispywareoplossing voordoet, maar in werkelijkheid minder goede bedoelingen heeft, zoals ransom- of scareware. Naast de gratis uitvoering is er een betaalde variant, die extra functionaliteit biedt, waaronder realtime-bescherming.
In versie 2.1.0 is onder meer de gebruikersinterface opgefrist, worden nu altijd voor een scan de laatste definities opgehaald en wordt er een melding gegeven als er nieuwe bètaversies beschikbaar zijn. Verder is het in quarantaine plaatsen van items eenvoudiger geworden en is het programma beter geworden in het herkennen en verwijderen van rootkits. Voorheen werd alleen een automatische update van de allereerste bèta aangeboden, nu is er ook een losse download, die echter één versie achterloopt. In deze update, die opnieuw als release-candidate 2 wordt aangeboden, zijn de volgende verbeteringen doorgevoerd:

- Updated user interface design that showcases a much cleaner look and toned-down color scheme
