Advantages: Powerful, effective and reliable

Disadvantages: None that I've found

After being let down by previous anti-virus software during an upgrade I found myself with a machine full of malware (somewhere in the region of 190 items found). The new upgrade for my old anti-virus would get halfway through a scan before crashing. I thought I was going to have to do a complete system reset in order to get rid of all the malware.

But then I found malwarebytes, another of the free downloadable anti-viruses. Malwarebytes was not only able to finish a system scan without crashing and find every single piece of malware on my system, but it was also able to remove them. Every single piece. I redid the scans three times to makes sure. Malwarebytes got every single piece of Malware first time. Because of malwarebytes I avoided having to do a system reset and losing all of my data on my laptop.

Since then the only anti-virus I have used is malwarebytes, and it has never failed me. I was even so impressed that, when I bought a new laptop, I bought the full version.

The full version is even better than the free one. It comes with real time protection and scheduled updates. And where other full version anti-viruses cahrge you hefty annual fees, Malwarebytes has a very reasonable, one time payment of about $25 ($15).

Summary: I wouldn't use anything else

Think their could be a bit of confusion here - Malwarebytes isnt an anti-virus package its an anti malware/spyware package isnt it? You should also use an anti-virus package alongside it.
