Malware Hunter download for pc is a anti-malware program developed by Glarysoft primarily as part of their popular Glary Utilities toolkit. Malware Hunter detects viruses and malware infections on your system and allows for their easy removal via Avira’s antivirus engine, while providing additional functions to remove junk files, optimize system performance and clean registry. Furthermore, Malware Hunter works seamlessly alongside traditional antivirus solutions without a hitch!
Malware Hunter offers three threat detection modes. Quick mode scans files located at key system locations, autostart entries, installed drivers and programs as well as registry security locations and items for potential infections. Probability suggests that all running processes and services will also be reviewed (although information regarding this aspect of testing processes on manufacturer websites, and no messages regarding analyzing processes/services within programs is currently lacking).
Full mode allows for scanning all available files on a disk; custom mode gives users more specific scanning controls based on volume or directory location. Settings allow us to decide whether compressed files should be included during scanning (with optionally excluded archives that exceed specified memory limits), with scan selected files/folders directly from Windows Explorer context menus. Suspicious files found are quarantined to allow removal from the data carrier or restore back to their previous position (useful for false positive detections).
Furthermore, this program download for mac offers a scan exclusion list where selected files and directories may be added as exclusions for future analysis. Additionally, an executable list has been published; however, as mentioned previously, real-time protection mechanisms are unlikely to be deployed as yet and therefore the malware signature database updates automatically. Suspicious files found are quarantined to allow removal from the data carrier or restoration to their previous locations (useful when performing false positive detections).
This program also features an exclusion list where selected files and directories may be added for greater efficiency when scanning is conducted. Additionally, an updated list of blocked executables was made public; however, due to ongoing development work real-time protection is unlikely yet; instead the malware signature database will likely be updated automatically. Suspicious files found are quarantined to either be deleted from the data carrier permanently or restored back into their previous positions (useful when false positive detections have occurred). Furthermore, this program provides a scan exclusion list whereby specific files and directories can be excluded from being checked out during scans.
Additionally, an executable list was made public; however, real-time protection functions have yet to be implemented and thus, only malware signature databases will likely provide real protection. However, as previously discussed, real-time protection features are unlikely to be implemented anytime soon; malware signature database updates occur automatically instead.
Malware Hunter for windows 10 full comes equipped with Speedup and Cleanup modules. Speedup allows users to manually disable/enable automatic startup of various programs, scheduled tasks and services as soon as Windows boots up, speeding up its starting up time while increasing system efficiency. Cleanup aims at cleaning registry data as well as clearing away junk files generated by system processes or web browsers as part of a faster startup time and improved running conditions for applications and web browsers alike.
Malware Hunter offers an attractive graphical user interface which is pleasing to the eye, similar to Qihu 360 antivirus software’s. Even less experienced users should quickly understand all rules associated with its usage despite not receiving help files or instructions when the description was written.
Limitations!
A Pro version is also available and provides extra features such as automatic scan scheduling and protection against infections from USB drives. Licenses for this can be obtained directly through the manufacturer website.
