Emsisoft Anti-Malware Version 5.0 incorporates major changes. The one that is most relevant to the user: The user interface has been greatly simplified. This allows PC beginners to immediately start working with the software because it is now much easier to use. The scanner has also been integrated into the main window and can now be started even faster than before. Emsisoft Anti-Malware is also very light on computer resources and now uses only about 20 MB RAM in normal guard operation.

Other new features:

• A new file guard:
  To ease the load on the system, the Anti-Malware background guard previously only started when files in the system were opened or executed. The new file guard in version 5 has been written anew from scratch and now also offers the optional ability to scan files immediately after downloading and when they are copied or moved.
• Full support for Windows 7:
  Anti-Malware 5 offers full support for Windows 7, including new functions specific to Windows 7.
• 100% x64 compatible:
  Anti-Malware 5.0 works equally well without limitations on both 32 and 64 bit systems. This makes Anti-Malware 5 one of the first “complete” behavior-blockers for x64 systems.
• Extended behavior analysis:
  A new addition is recognition of manipulation of the system security policies. The false alert filter has been further refined and the design of the alert window has been optimized.
• Improved self-protection:
  The self-protection in Anti-Malware 5 has been greatly optimized. This prevents Malware programs from changing or disabling the protection program.
• Improved cleaning:
  The cleaning routines in the software have been greatly improved. This means that all Malware found by the program can also be reliably deleted.
• New game mode:
  Users can now suppress all popups and alarms per mouse click if they wish to remain undisturbed during a game or while working with any other type of full-screen application.
• No more need for registration when testing:
  Emsisoft Anti-Malware 5 can now be tested free of charge without prior registration.
• New freeware mode:
  After a license or test period has expired, Anti-Malware 5 can still be used free of charge without the guard features. You are not compelled to purchase the product in order to test and clean your PC.
• Hundreds of small improvements:
  Numerous features requested by the users, such as optional shutdown of the computer after completion of a scan or a new central whitelist, have been added during Beta testing.
