yeah except that one but I have a question in some Malware Removal sites in their removal guide i saw that Hijack this was replaced by OTListIt  but still it is used even in that site it is some kinda confusing because we must learn how to read logs in HJT but in their malware removal guide they tell us that it has been replaced by OTL  :-\.
It is kinda confusing.
sounds like geeks2go...  Very good trustful site so it might want to be changed here too.

DDS is another one which could replace HJT.

    I know I'll take some flack on this one, but I've been using Stopzilla for the past six months and it's one of the best programs I've used.....Nothing seems  to get by it.....customer support is the best I've ever used, within minutes of an email there's a response......I downloaded the latest version and I think it performed well against the Spycar Suite, but I don't know whether I used the suite correctly...

    Kpac , perhaps you can run Spycar on Stopzilla and share your findings.....I found it worked well, but I'm not sure I did things right.


    Never argue with a stupid person, they'll drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.

    autoruns is my favourite Hijackthis-equivalent.

    It has some stuff HJT doesn't have.
    I was trying to dereference Null Pointers before it was cool.

    Yes, and evilfantasy and broni are the designated malware fixer.
