Here is free application called Hitman Pro which scans your system for malware using 8 different anti-Malware applications.
Important parts of Hitman Pro are created using flexible AutoIt Script.
The solution from Hitman Pro could be something akin to a multi-barreled approach. A combination of 8 anti-spywares out there for the dangers posed by cyber snoop tools preying on your computer.
The basic premise behind Hitman Pro is that a single anti-spyware tool is often insufficient to detect the sheer variety of malicious code in the form of spyware and /or trojans. It is not an anti-spyware by itself but it downloads some of the popular anti-spyware scanning engines to scan your computer.
The scanning engines include names like – Prevx CSI Free, Trend Micro, Lavasoft Ad-Aware SE, Spybot Search&Destroy, Webroot SpySweeper, Ewido AntiSpyware, PC Tools Spyware Doctor and Sunbelt Counterspy
The anti-spyware programs include trial versions of paid software like the Webroot SpySweeper and PC Tools Spyware Doctor. When the trial period is over, you will have to disable them or alternatively if you have the paid component then Hitman Pro recognizes and accepts them.
There are extra features like a behavioral scan, browser protection and an expert mode.
The “browser security” features (called ‘SurfRight’) allow for a safe surfing environment protected from trojan attacks.
The “expert mode” gives some control to the user to deal with the threats detected. The expert mode also retains a record of the earlier detections so that the user does not have to do a full scan again. At the end of it all, the program generates a single report file for your perusal.
Here’s a small rundown…
- An integrated all in one solution to take care of your ‘defense’ shield.
- It’s a great free solution for those who don’t like to be saddled with the individual complexities of an anti-spyware program.
- Simple basic control with a single click operation.
- Updates and patches are downloaded automatically.
- Uses the better known free anti-spyware software. Also has support for the paid ones.
