    Malwarebytes has recently made available the finished version of Malwarebytes Antiexploit.

    I had been using the beta version for a long time before it became incompatible with MS EMET.

    I don't know if the latest version is compatible with EMET or not. Any ideas ?

    Which is better ?

    Malwarebytes Anti-Exploit (MBAE) is a good additional layer against unpatched exploits. It works on Java exploits, EMET (Enhanced Mitigation Experience Toolkit) doesn't.

    Good thread here: Any extra benifits running EMET with MBAE

    hmm. Murphy strikes again.

    Working ok on my laptop but not on my desktop. Both IE & FF refuse to start on the desktop. Seems some old version file is lingering somewhere in the deep caves of Windows/registry.

    So its either MBAE or EMET for now & sine I have EMET installed already, I am going on with EMET.

    You're welcome. On your desktop, remove both MBAE and EMET with Revo Uninstaller, reboot, install MBAE then EMET? If you've got the time, might be worth a shot. <shrug> :)

    Interesting, thanks. Still haven't noticed any problems here yet though (W7U64).

    Update.

    Yesterday I updated Avast Free Antivirus on my laptop and after that IE refused to start, crashing repeatedly. After uninstalling MBAE, everything was back to normal.

    Seems like Malwarebytes jumped the gun on this one.

    They may complement each other but they don't play along nicely.

    As mentioned above, they're working great here.

    If they're causing a conflict on your setup however, as Pedro alluded to, MBAE is set'n forget.
