That's significantly more than Kaspersky (0.6%) and Bitdefender (1%), but much the same as Sophos Home (3.8%) and Trend Micro (4%), and you're unlikely to notice any difference in real-world use.

We were offered the chance to have a 14-day trial of Malwarebytes Premium, and although this requires handing over an email address, there were no other hassles of any kind (we didn't even have to confirm our email.)Ĭhecking the Malwarebytes installation folders showed a relatively lightweight package with around 400MB of files, and just a couple of significant background processes. Malwarebytes installs quickly and easily.
