AVG Anti-Virus Free 2014 14.0.4259

AVG Anti-Virus Free 2014 14.0.4259. There are numerous users who prefer to rely on a freeware antivirus solution and, despite ongoing rumors, this does not necessarily mean that the computer is less protected than in the case of using a paid tool.

AVG Free Edition is one of the freeware antivirus software that should be taken into consideration when thinking about a freeware solution to protect one's PC. It only provides basic protection, but this should be enough for those who are not avid computer users who download tons of files from the Internet.

Extra attention should be paid when installing this application, since it offers to make some changes to your search engine and install a browser toolbar. Even if you refuse these offers, the software still functions properly.

The interface of AVG Free Edition pleasant, and packed with features that users would only expect from paid solutions, including modules such as LinkScanner, E-mail Protection or Anti-Rootkit.

The scanning process is really fast and thanks to Smart Scanning it can even allow users to work on the computer without noticeably affecting performance. Basically, this particular function starts a scanning process when the computer is idle and switches to a low-priority mode once it detects some activity.

In addition, the PC Analyzer mode will enable users to scan their PC and identify registry errors, junk files, fragmentation errors or invalid shortcuts. AVG Free Edition also comes in handy for proactive identity theft and privacy-related security.

To sum it up, users can stop searching for an efficient antivirus solution, and give AVG Free Edition a try. It might prove to be ideal for those who do not afford to invest in security software yet want to be sure their PC can detect and block malware threats.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.75.0.1300

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware 1.75.0.1300. Whether you know it or not, your computer is always at risk of becoming infected with viruses, worms, Trojans, rootkits, dialers, spyware, and malware of every kind. Malicious software is constantly evolving and becoming harder to detect and remove.

Only the most sophisticated anti-malware technologies can detect and remove malicious programs from your computer. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware combines powerful new technologies designed to seek out, destroy, and prevent malware infections.

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is an easy-to-use anti-malware application with over 100 million downloads, well-known for its detection and removal capabilities. Additionally, Malwarebytes offers a host of extra utilities as well as an approachable forum community to help you combat any piece of malware that exists in the wild.

Furthermore, users will be able to access the threats center where they can keep up to date with the latest discovered malware threats.

Note: Some antivirus and antispyware programs flag Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware as being infected/malware, although the application is perfectly safe and does not pose a threat to your system. This is called a 'false positive'. The term false positive is used when antivirus software wrongly classifies an innocuous ( inoffensive ) file as a virus. The incorrect detection may be due to heuristics or to an incorrect virus signature in a database. [Similar problems can occur with antitrojan or antispyware software.]

Features Malwarebytes Anti-Malware

Light speed quick scanning.
Ability to perform full scans for all drives.
Database updates released daily.
Quarantine to hold threats and restore them at your convenience.
Ignore list for both the scanner and Protection Module.
Settings to enhance your Malwarebytes Anti-Malware performance.
A small list of extra utilities to help remove malware manually.
Multi-lingual support.
Works together with other anti-malware utilities.

McAfee Stinger 12.0.0.585

McAfee Stinger 12.0.0.585. Having an antivirus solution installed on the computer is definitely a necessity to ensure that one's PC is protected against malware attacks and infections. However, this protection can be doubled by a specialized removal tool, such as McAfee AVERT Stinger.

This application is meant to detect and remove a number of viruses easier than a traditional antivirus solution, without needing any intricate configuration.

McAfee AVERT Stinger does not require users to install it on their PC, which comes in quite handy, especially considering that viruses often attempt to block installation of security tools. It is delivered as a stand-alone executable file that can be directly double-clicked for running.

The interface is minimal and no user should have any problems using it. There are only a few buttons at the top of main and only window, one of which is the Preferences one, window that gives access to several settings regarding the application.

McAfee AVERT Stinger is a straightforward tool that is developed specifically to fight against certain types of infections. It can detect multiple Autorun viruses, but also Generic Downloaders and FakeAlert infections.

The scanning process can take a while to complete, but it depends on the amount of data stored on the computer – a full hard disk might even require more than an hour or two for a complete scan to finish. The duration of a scan is also influenced by the sensitivity level set by the user for the heuristic network check, as well as the targets McAfee AVERT Stinger is meant to process.

The application is not quite friendly with computer resources and probably it was not even supposed to be considering its only job is to detect viruses and kill them all.

As a conclusion, those who are struggling to get rid of a virus that cannot be removed by any stand-alone antivirus solution, McAfee AVERT Stinger is a freeware tool that can be worth a try.

Avira Free AntiVirus 14.0.0.411

Avira Free AntiVirus 14.0.0.411. Avira only offers a bunch of settings, so advanced users should have no problem to deal with them, although beginners should too find the whole application quite easy to use.

The installation process is not that pleasant though. If you have Windows Defender installed, Avira advises you to remove it before continuing the installation. We chose “No” because it would make much more sense to use Avira together with Windows Defender, and not as a single solution.

Continuing the installation brings you to another important moment: you must decide whether you wish to install a toolbar, which is actually the reason why the app is marked as ad-supported.

Scanning is the kind of process that requires minimal interaction from the user. Choose the hard-disk you want to scan and let Avira do its magic. Scanning is not too fast though, and you may have to wait a little while to get rid of the worms. The speed of the scanning process obviously depends on the amount of data stored on your computer, so more files means more time.

Avira promises to protect your computer against viruses, worms and Trojans AntiDialer protection as well as against dialers and rootkits, spyware and adware. In addition, there are dedicated tools to provide mail and web protection, plus a separate firewall to make sure you're going to stay on the safe side.

In the end, Avira's antivirus solution seems just right for those who want nothing more than a software capable of blocking viruses and Trojan horses. The interface is more than decent, but a faster scanning process would be great. Still, what you pay is what you get, and Avira is clearly a smart pick.

Features Avira Free AntiVirus

· AntiVir protection against viruses, worms and Trojans AntiDialer protection against expensive dialers
· AntiRootkit protection against hidden rootkits
· Faster Scanning up to 20% faster
· AntiPhishing protection against phishing
· AntiSpyware protection against spyware and adware NetbookSupport for laptops with low resolution
· QuickRemoval eliminates viruses at the push of a button

Requirements:

Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ 11.0.4395.0

Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ 11.0.4395.0 provides two-way protection encased in an antivirus joined with an anti-spyware engine. This combination ensures a strong shield against Trojans, dialers, rootkits, bots and hijackers.

While the antivirus module performs detection and cleaning for the most popular virus threats, the anti-spyware solution protects you from cyber-attacks, all the while preventing your data and finances from being stolen.

Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ also blocks unsafe downloads, detects email threats, keeps passwords for social networks safe and monitors your network.

The application presents itself with a user-friendly interface that's simple to understand and explore. Performing a scan presents itself with three options: Quick, Full and Custom.

The Quick Scan module browses your system, but only in its most critical parts (e.g. Windows system files), while the Full Scan performs an in-depth analysis of the local drives. To customize the scan process, choose the Custom mode.

As soon as the software finds a virus or any similar threat, you have the option of quarantining, removing, ignoring, or allowing it ''to live''. Scheduling scans is also possible and they can even be activated at Windows startup.

The Game mode provides silent protection, thus allowing you to play without receiving Ad-Aware notifications. Don't worry, the antivirus engine is still on and running in the background, it just doesn't disturb you in any way.

When Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ is active, the available CPU is significantly reduced, but you are expected to stop doing any other activity during system scanning.

In short, Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ is a reliable choice if you require more than an antivirus product. By bundling an anti-spyware module, it provides multiple layers of security. Detection and removal are done smoothly, while the other components protect you silently, but efficiently.

Features Ad-Aware Free Antivirus+ 11.0.4395.0

Dr.WEB CureIt! 8.0.1 DC 2013.01.09

Dr.WEB CureIt! 8.0.1 DC 2013.01.09 is, just like its name suggests, an application designed to cure your computer and clean the infected files, regardless if we’re talking about spyware or viruses.

One of the greatest things about this downloadable software is that it doesn’t need to be installed.

There are three scanning modes available, “Express”, “Complete” and “Custom”, with a short explanation provided in the right panel right in the main window.

The “Express” mode for example will scan random access memory, boot sectors of all disks, startup objects, boot disk root directory, root Windows folder, Windows system folder, user documents folder, system temporary folder and user temporary folder.

It’s being delivered as an executable file that needs just a double click to be launched which, in some cases, is the only viable solution. Viruses and spyware are often trying to block installation of new antiviruses and security software, so this is indeed a major advantage.

On the contrary, probably the worst thing about Dr. WEB CureIt! is its interface. It’s boring to say the least, and the user is assaulted with multiple splash screens, as the software loads in the background.

During our test, the scanning process took a while, especially when we gave the complete scan mode a spin, but this way we got sure that the whole computer was entirely clean.

The application isn’t too heavy on computer resources, so scanning the drives and working on your machine at the same time isn’t a problem at all, although we won't recommend that until the scanning process comes to an end.

All in all, Dr. Web CureIt! is the kind of tool that struggles to impress, but there’s still a lot of work to do. Permanent protection is mandatory for such a tool, while a modern interface and stylish look would likely attract many more users.

Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool 4.16

Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool 4.16 is a malware detection and removal utility. It thoroughly scans your computer to identify infiltrated malware and if any, attempts to remove it. Keep in mind that it was not built to prevent malicious threats, but to detect existing ones.

Even though it’s available as a separate download, Microsoft also distributes it automatically as a part of the Windows Update service. In other words, you can run the tool without downloading it, using the run command or the cmd utility by typing ‘mrt.exe’.

Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool acts like a wizard and guides you through every step of the detection algorithm. In the first window you can view a list of spyware that the application is able to remove.

The next window allows you to select the type of scan you wish to perform. The quick mode takes only a couple minutes to complete, while the full scan is more time consuming, but also more effective. If you want to perform a scan on a certain folder, use the customized scan mode. When the process is complete, a detailed report is displayed, containing the detected malware, if any.

In conclusion, Microsoft Malicious Software Removal Tool is one of the go-to solutions in case your computer gets infected. It has been and is promoted as a top malware removal utility, but don’t take their word for it until it heals your computer too.

Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool 11.0.0.1245 31.12.2012

Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool 11.0.0.1245 31.12.2012. No matter how carefully one uses the computer, they are still exposed to online threats and malware attacks, so the importance of having a correctly-configured antivirus solution should not be underestimated. However, in case the infection has already reached the PC and the security software has been neutralized, there is one more tool that can be tested: Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool.

In most cases, when the virus is already on the target PC, there is nothing much one can do because the malware typically does not allow users to install or update any antivirus software. Kaspersky’s tool on the other hand has taken some protective measures: it can be installed on infected computers, even in Safe Mode, and it can automatically remove viruses, Trojans, rootkits, adware or spyware.

Installation is extremely quick and the scanning process is very fast, with the application remaining quite friendly with the computer resources. The interface of Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool is equally intuitive, and users can only press the Scan button and continue with their work, as the process will run in the background.

If the results of the automatic scanning are not satisfactory, one can also try the Manual Disinfection which performs an in-depth analysis of the computer, then generates a detailed report that can be sent to Kaspersky for further processing.

Alternatively, one can also choose the target type of data that needs to be scanned, thus restricting the area of analysis, and the time of the scan, but this is only advisable when users are aware of the location of the infection. Also, modifying the security level to High can result in longer scanning times.

Last but not least, Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool allows users to choose the action they want to take when a threat is detected, so experts can attempt to manually process the issue.

Overall, in case viruses and other infections have reached one;s computer, Kaspersky’s tool can come to the rescue. But one should note that keeping a computer clean comes down to installing a full version of an antivirus solution, with real-time protection and periodic updates.

Dr.Web CureIt! 8.0.1 DC 2012-12-31

Dr.WEB CureIt! 8.0.1 DC 2012.12.31 is, just like its name suggests, an application designed to cure your computer and clean the infected files, regardless if we’re talking about spyware or viruses.

One of the greatest things about this downloadable software is that it doesn’t need to be installed.

There are three scanning modes available, “Express”, “Complete” and “Custom”, with a short explanation provided in the right panel right in the main window.

The “Express” mode for example will scan random access memory, boot sectors of all disks, startup objects, boot disk root directory, root Windows folder, Windows system folder, user documents folder, system temporary folder and user temporary folder.

It’s being delivered as an executable file that needs just a double click to be launched which, in some cases, is the only viable solution. Viruses and spyware are often trying to block installation of new antiviruses and security software, so this is indeed a major advantage.

On the contrary, probably the worst thing about Dr. WEB CureIt! is its interface. It’s boring to say the least, and the user is assaulted with multiple splash screens, as the software loads in the background.

During our test, the scanning process took a while, especially when we gave the complete scan mode a spin, but this way we got sure that the whole computer was entirely clean.

The application isn’t too heavy on computer resources, so scanning the drives and working on your machine at the same time isn’t a problem at all, although we won't recommend that until the scanning process comes to an end.

All in all, Dr. Web CureIt! is the kind of tool that struggles to impress, but there’s still a lot of work to do. Permanent protection is mandatory for such a tool, while a modern interface and stylish look would likely attract many more users.

McAfee AVERT Stinger 10.2.0.933

McAfee AVERT Stinger 10.2.0.933. Having an antivirus solution installed on the computer is definitely a necessity to ensure that one's PC is protected against malware attacks and infections. However, this protection can be doubled by a specialized removal tool, such as McAfee AVERT Stinger.

This application is meant to detect and remove a number of viruses easier than a traditional antivirus solution, without needing any intricate configuration.

McAfee AVERT Stinger does not require users to install it on their PC, which comes in quite handy, especially considering that viruses often attempt to block installation of security tools. It is delivered as a stand-alone executable file that can be directly double-clicked for running.

The interface is minimal and no user should have any problems using it. There are only a few buttons at the top of main and only window, one of which is the Preferences one, window that gives access to several settings regarding the application.

McAfee AVERT Stinger is a straightforward tool that is developed specifically to fight against certain types of infections. It can detect multiple Autorun viruses, but also Generic Downloaders and FakeAlert infections.

The scanning process can take a while to complete, but it depends on the amount of data stored on the computer – a full hard disk might even require more than an hour or two for a complete scan to finish. The duration of a scan is also influenced by the sensitivity level set by the user for the heuristic network check, as well as the targets McAfee AVERT Stinger is meant to process.

The application is not quite friendly with computer resources and probably it was not even supposed to be considering its only job is to detect viruses and kill them all.

As a conclusion, those who are struggling to get rid of a virus that cannot be removed by any stand-alone antivirus solution, McAfee AVERT Stinger is a freeware tool that can be worth a try.
