Anti-malware

Software to detect, block and remove malware

Anti-malware software is a term used to describe security software that covers a range of malware and security threats.

While many people continue to use the term 'anti-virus' to refer to software that also detects other types of malware, many product vendors have relabelled their software 'anti-malware' to make it clear that spyware, trojans and so on are covered, as well as traditional viruses.
