For those using MB all you have to do is click on update and it'll get it and install it.
I'm off to do a scan with this new version.

Is it worth getting this? I use ESET NOD32.

ESET NOD32 is a Anti Virus application, Malwarebytes is a Anti-Malware application (you could download Malwarebytes (free) and use it as a second opinion ... thats what I do

True, I mean, It won't hurt to use it

It is fine to use MBAM.

As WildCat pointed, the two programs target different things (viruses and malware). The data base or definitions for the programs are different.

I also use both programs.
