UnHackMe basically flags every new browser addon as well, up to you to determine if safe. I ended up getting rid of Spywareblaster, being its Chrome and Edge browser immunization is minimal anyway. Each new update immunization gets flagged. However, it does NOT play well with like Spywareblaster immunization for either Chrome or Edge. Once you tell it it's a false positive it will remember in future. For me I set to every 10 minutes of monitor and 25 hours for scan.Ĭons: UnHackMe does give a lot of false positives initially, this is not for the novice user.

It's not truly realtime protection with UnHackMe, but something halfway in between, and you can set how often to monitor your system, as well as scan. UnHackMe does also have a pre-boot scan option.

Defender missed the malware, and Malwarebytes (paid version) also missed it. If I had had UnHackMe from the start I'm sure it would have caught it also, all of it. UnHackMe caught a remnant left behind of a bad piece of malware I had gotten that an install of Avast, and its offline scan got. It sometimes warns about false-positives.Pros: A great option to have if only just using Defender, even good option to have if using Malwarebytes.The application offers guided removal of malware.User has to start the programs manually.Īntirootkits often conflict with each other.Īntirootkits can not defend from Trojans and malware. There are a lot of PC configurations and the application authors could not test all of them for compatibility with their programs.Īntirootkits need time to verify all the hard disks, registry and memory. Rootkit will cause instantaneous BSOD (blues screen of death).Īlso, antirootkit can struggle with legitimate device drivers installed on the system. Other antirookits applications often cause the Microsoft Windows blue-screen-of-death during rootkit discovery.Īntirookits are using the kernel mode application and every error or variance with secret Their files are also encrypted and compressed in order to remain stealth.Īntirootkits try to find rootkits in the common Windows mode.īut if the rootkit works with DKOM systems, antirootkits will have a lot of issues with its discovery. The rootkits are undetectable by anti-virus solutions and are capable of hiding their registry keys, files, process names and network connections from your eyes. Then, the rootkit infects the computer with a backdoor application that will allow the hacker to obtain full control of the machine. The rootkit is installed on computer by exploiting a vulnerability, by cracking a password or by an user action.

A rootkit consists of a set of applications used by hackers to mask their intrusion and obtain administrator privileges on a computer or network. UnHackMe is a security solution that is capable of finding and removing a new type of Trojan malicious software: invisible Trojans, also known as rootkits.
