What are the symptoms of a virus or malware infection?
If your device has gotten a virus or malware infection, there are some telltale signs, including:
Reduced Speed: Your device slows down significantly.
Pop-ups: You have started to see a lot of unexpected pop-ups.
System crashing: Your system unexpectedly crashes, either by freezing or by giving you a blue screen.
Loss of disk space: A lot of your device’s storage has been taken up unexpectedly.
Settings changed: Device or browser settings change without you changing them.
Files encrypted: Ransomware has locked you out of your files or your entire device.
Different types of malware use your device’s resources in different ways, such as making it part of a botnet to perform DDoS attacks, mining cryptocurrency without your knowledge, or other nefarious activities.
If you suspect your device may be infected with a virus or malware, download our free malware scanner and run a free scan to find and quarantine any malware on your device.

Is Malwarebytes Premium Security an antivirus?
Malwarebytes Premium Security is an antivirus and more. Traditional antivirus alone is no longer sufficient against today’s sophisticated malware threats. Malwarebytes Premium Security prevents threats in real-time, stops ransomware, defends against harmful sites, and cleans and removes malware.
