Malwarebytes Anti Exploit
Latest version 1.09.1.1235 / 28 October 2016
Download pagePopular software programs contain millions of lines of code. Bad guys exploit flaws (vulnerabilities) in the code to deliver malware. Except when they can't. Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit wraps four layers of security around popular browsers, preventing exploits from compromising vulnerable code. Not an antivirus, but compatible with most antivirus, Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit is a small, specialized shield designed to protect you against one of the most dangerous forms of malware attacks. And it's free.

Go to this postfor information of this re-release. It has to do with, when using Internet Explorer and right clicking a picture in the browser, MBAE will give a VBS script warning. I have been in touch with someone at Malwarebytes and they are working on it. My Email communication with them is posted at this LINK in Site Bugs and Suggestions, if you're interested.
Please note, after my initial Email to them response was very fast and very forthcoming, and they were interested in solving the problem. One of the reasons I swear by their products.
As a side note they are already working on version 1.08.1010.
For those who went to the Site Bugs link to see my communication with Malwarebytes, the case is now closed and the problem should be taken care of in the next version update(1.08.x.xxxx). And of course I will fill out the survey:Just remember if you have problems with a 3rd party software, go to that developers site and inform them, don't be critical, be factual, explain, send screenshots, and be patient.Cliff

Hi Cliff
Ok, great, all good news, thanks for your patience.
I’ll go ahead and close this ticket – please let me know if there’s anything else I can help with.
If you’d like to share any feedback with us, you will be receiving a link to a short survey soon. Please let us know how we’re doing, and thanks for choosing Malwarebytes!
In the Malwarebaytes blog, the question was asked if MBAE will have support for Edge Browser.
The answer received from the Malwarebytes staff was: "We're investigating Edge to see if/when we add protection for it."Being a WinRT app, it might not need it.
Version 1.07 was updated to 1.07.1.1015 today. See first post to download.
Microsoft Edge has been added to version 1.08.x , which is currently available in BETA (for testing).
If you're willing to EXPERIMENT with this version, see
Latest version 1.08.1.1044 MBAE
see first post
Thanks for the info Cliff. Something I noticed & I'll mention it in case others are running EMET, I'm running it & this time before installing the newer version I got a notice saying EMET is incompatible with MBAE. I might install it anyway to see what happens.
MBAE does not only the same as EMET but more(with the paid version). Check out Q&A here: Frequently Asked Questions - News, Questions and Comments - Malwarebytes Forum
Yeah, I know it's redundancy to an extent, but I have both running on my OS without any problems. They played nice for a while, so we'll see what happens if I decide to put it on.....I'll let you know if I do.
