Partnership to offer free malware cleaning tool for PC users
Clearwater, FL - Apr 21, 2010 - Sunbelt Software, a leading provider of
Windows security software, today announced that it has entered into a
strategic partnership with Malwarebytes, the makers of malware cleaning
tools to increase the security of the Internet.
Together, as an initial joint offering, Sunbelt Software and
Malwarebytes have created a dedicated Website portal to offer consumers
free tools to clean systems which have become so infested with malware
that normal PC functions and performance are significantly hindered. The
portal is available at http://vipre.malwarebytes.org. In addition to
this initial first offering, the companies are also working together on
a broad range of initiatives for sharing information on emerging
threats, methods to mitigate risk, and other joint efforts.
"Sunbelt is honored to partner with Malwarebytes on this dedicated
cleaning portal, as well as future initiatives that address new and
emerging threat patterns facing consumers," said Alex Eckelberry, CEO of
Sunbelt Software. "Malwarebytes threat cleansing functionality is a
perfect complement to our leading malware cleaning tools and we hope our
first joint solution will offer home users a powerful tool to ensure the
safety of their home PC."
