After support ends and unofficial SP4 (if you trust it) will be much depreciated unless you need to do a format and reinstall of XP. But all of that hassle would be greatly reduced if you already have a backup and recovery strategy and making regular drive image backups.

I guess even after the support ends, the old update packages will be available from Microsoft Update as usual.

Well SP3 would no doubt be available, but KBs issued after SP3 was released might be a different ball game.
e.g. Will the WU site still be available to XP systems in the way it is now to manually check for updates.

I took that for granted. Now I'm having some doubts, though.

MalwareBytes v2.0 RC 1

Known issues can be found here.

Beta testing was almost as smooth as silk.

Notes: Some issues remain while running a scan with rootkits enabled, scan have been known to hang.
           Other than that v2.0 RC 1 is very stable.
           
           Change in scan names...
           Quick Scan is now named Threat Scan
           Full Scan is now Custom Scan
           Flash Scan is now Hyper Scan

edit: MBAM Premium now requires a paid license.
        Licenses from v1.xx will work with this release. (Beta licenses stopped being accepted after beta 2)
