Hitman Pro Uses 1Anti Spyware Program 4Anti virus programs - A square ANTI SPYWARE(anti malware) Anti Viruses: NOD32 G-DATA Avira Anti Vir Prevx but they shud add Norton Or Kaspersky :D
@adythekiller you can right click on files to scan them, say on downloads if you want to check them before opening and don't just trust whatever on access protection you have. This is designed to be a second scanner, and only on demand, this is a very effective on demand scanner and worth having. Besides, real time protection, no matter who the vendor, misses way more than on demand scans.
I've changed my mind, sorta, about Hitman Pro. I now use the free version. It is extremely fast and overall great software. While it has it's limitations, it is fantastic as a second or third opinion app. Hitman Pro is largely reliant on other AV cos for their detection. They don't have a quarantine. They don't have a disinfection feature. If no internet connection is available, it doesn't work. It can't replace an infected file without the users install cd. It just deletes it.
This is honestly retarded there is litterally no difference just because there are four different antiviruses in it, I have 1 question have you ever heard of something called a crypter? When a virus is crypted depending on the detection rate it can bypass any antivirus while the stub is still fud. Antiviruses are never full protection antivirus is just a compromise its impossible for it to be 100% protection. As for norton products i extremely highly reccomend you dont use them.
this program detected SUPERantispyware as a risk should i delete it or is SUPERantispyware legit? also this program is so awesome i recommend it to anyone
@jerenator69 No don't delete superantispyware. It is legit... Unless you downloaded it somewhere else. If you downloaded it at the orginal site then report the result as false positive. Don't worry this happens to alot of av's.
@jerenator69 it worked great for me. after trying spybot, windows defender, malwarebytes, and mcafee, none found the rootkit but hitman pro found it in minutes
Safer? The 'bit' refers to what version of operating you have which depends on your hardware such as processor, and how much RAM you have. If you don't know then if you go to 'Welcome Center' if you have Vista or 7 and you'll see displayed.
I know what it means.. But I've been hearing that the 64bit is safer, because it is a new, or somethin' and also more viruses run on a 32, than a 64. Mine is a Windows 7, 64bit.
Hitman Pro 3.5 failed with removing a few pieces of malware.
I had 2 internet explorer icons, if you right click one of them,it comes up really strange letters,and and at startup it comes a popup if i want to run a file :(!
I recently had my 11 year old put malwarebytes on there and run it. It found all kinds of worms and trojans and removed them. computer is much faster now. Now that Hitman 3.5.3 is out there my son can button it up since hitman has 5 engines some with quality full av scan. To make a long story short, for what ever form of misperception someone would not want realtime protection on their pc, i definitely recommend MBAM and HITMAN for a good 1-2punch
For what ever reason (or lack thereof), my ex-wife refuses to let me put realtime protection on her computer. She had a bunch of really bad infections that disabled avg and spybot. I went ahead and removed norton cause at the time it was such a joke. i put avg on there and what ever malware she had crashed it. So now she is paranoid as to not let me do what i need to button up her system. It works but is super slow from all the infections.
I hear ya MrFreeBeezz. I use those with super anti-spyware, spybot s+d tea timer, threat fire and spyblaster. The only time I actually scan with sas or spybot s+d is after a really nasty infection as to make sure all malware is 100% toast! Threat fire is a great complement because it is strictly behavioral bases so it will not slow down avira or conflict with it at all and makes up for any loose ends pertinent to windows firewall. Give it a try you will like it. I like avira scan rootkits
whats a virtual machine i am new to computers even though i want to get into repairing them for i career i am actually going to kacc next year for high school
Typically, for an already infected PC, Matt uses SuperAntispyware. Other times he uses Dr.Web.
Also MBAM. Of all the New security apps out there, this one impresses me the least. Not that it isn't a serious malware killer, but that it relies on many other apps to help it achieve it's great results. SpywareDoctor w/Antivirus typically achieves the same results BY ITSELF.
So do other Antimalware apps that Matt has reviewed. Hitman Pro = Defender Pro!!
Purchasing it doesn't give you real-time protection. You get unlimited scans, however you only get a 30 day free trial to REMOVE infections. In other words, once those 30 days are up, it can detect infections, but won't remove them.
my friends pc has viruses and spyware and she cant even access the internet so i want to put this program hitman pro onto my flash drive to put it on her pc but can u tell me how to put this on my flash drive the correct way step by step please ? i have vista
@binary56: Just download the EXE and copy it to the flash drive. Make sure you check 'Scan for unknown suspicious files (Early Warning Scoring)' under Settings. In this mode you can use Hitman Pro without internet connection.
im like really dumb and i dont know how to to that i need like step by step i downloaded it and then it gave me an option where to install it i chose my flash drive and it finished but people say thats wrond so should i go to my c drive find the program folder and just drag it to my flash drive or no im sooo confused
1 download it 2 Put it in your Pendrive 3 renamed that file into something like Svchost.exe or 74873.exe 4 download the update file and put it in your thumb drive 5 Renamed the file into A ramdom Name 6 Unplug your pendrive 7 Shutdown your pc 8 Get into your car and drive to your friend house 9 Get out the car, open the door 10 Turn on the pc 11 if the boot fail boot up in safe mode 12 plug in your pen drive 13 Open the file and Start scaning check carefully continue below
Hmm, this looks like a pretty nice product. It's pretty cool on how it uses different anti viruses to detect all the malware. Might have to try this out later on my VM.
Whoever "created" this AV is just Lazy. They just compiled 6 of the best AVs out there and combined them and called it "Hitman Pro". With so many top AVs, it would be pretty hard NOT to detect all infections. Proves nothing about the code writing skills of the owners of the Co. Pass.
Me not understand, @pacorocks1. What do you mean MBAM had their database "hijacked" by iobit? Are you saying that iobit basically copied all of mbam's definitions and made them their own? Please clarify.
It could be me but take a closer look. This program knows EXACTLY which files are to be sent to the cloud! The 5 AV products in the cloud are just there to give the files a virus name.
This "program" relies ENTIRELY on OTHER AV Cos for it's detection and removal. Also for it's cloud based analysis. Apps like Prevx, Spyware Doctor w/Antivirus, Drive Sentry, etc are apps built from the ground up by their respective creators/code writers. When they were done, they had built a program that they could be proud of and built it IN HOUSE. Did a good job too. All three programs have excellent reps for detection, removal, etc. "Hitman Pro" just relies on other AV to get answrs.LAZY
Besides its extremely fast scan speed this program knows EXACTLY (and WITHOUT help from any other av) which files to send to the cloud for naming. I wouldn't call that lazy but the holy grail among virusscanners!!
The "Holy Grail" of scanners doesn't need to rely on SIX other AV companies to help them. Many Top antivirus/antimalware apps reviewed by Matt use only their OWN program and technology to detect and clean malware and do it expertly. Matt has had perfect or near perfect results in some of his tests with various AV/AM apps. A skilled team of code writers makes their own program and it stands on it's own as an A Grade app built from the ground up. I'll pass on Hitman Pro.
I would disagree. I would prefer 5 different opinions than just one, its like you are scanning your system with 5 AV's at the same time. What is bad about that?
Nothing's bad about it. My point was, in addition to Hitman using their own scanner, they rely on Other Cos for a complete/thorough job. Spyware Doctor, Drive Sentry, et al, do a complete job relying on their own product Only. Simply put, ANYONE can use Lots of other engines to enhance their work and then say Wow, look, a clean machine! To charge $ for that takes Gall. I cud do it free by using my AV, then SAS, then MBAM. Their product isn't original & shows NO code writing mastery.
master protection. What's wrong about it? nothing. So what if it uses other antivirus system, G-data does that same thing. As long as it detects virus
Basically, nothing is wrong with it. It is effective. Using so many OTHER AVs, how could it not be.
However, I for one would not PAY these ppl $ wen I could use any number of Free programs and get the same results. Wots more, these ppl spent much time making "Hitman" and wot did they come up with? A system that relies on Other AVs about 85%!! Hardly an accomplishment. Anyone could've done that. Design your own AV and build it from the ground up like evrybody else. That's code writing.
Although hitman uses five engines in the cloud, you should note, it uses only one (its own) engine on the PC it is installed on. If its own engine finds anything it thinks could be malware, it then sends the suspect file to the cloud where the five vendors scan it. It does NOT use seven engines as someone posted - I think they were counting A-Squared as having two engines - so it then being six in the cloud and also including the Hotman engine to make seven. This said, its one of the best AMs!
I would like to see an in depth review of security essentials when the pc is already infected with malware instead of just checking to see if it can stop it in its tracks.
hey i have a question for you right now i have avast free antivirus that has real time protection and iobit 360 security that has real time protection for spyware and then i off course have malwarebytes and superantispyware but should i get the microsoft security essentials instead of avast and iobit ?
Yea i heard about it too, it's sure a big blow to IOBit as it was once considered a reputable company. It is still not confirmed who is TRULY guilty but I really hope that both parties will resolve the problem soon. =(
It actually uses 7 anti-malware products in the so called Scan Cloud. Hitman Pro is just 5MB in size and does not install anything. It is an on-demand scanner. It uses cloud computing so there is no impact on your system performance.
Was anyone else distracted by the little animation on the side?

It could be me but take a closer look. This program knows EXACTLY which files are to be sent to the cloud! The 5 AV products in the cloud are just there to give the files a virus name.

This "program" relies ENTIRELY on OTHER AV Cos for it's detection and removal. Also for it's cloud based analysis. Apps like Prevx, Spyware Doctor w/Antivirus, Drive Sentry, etc are apps built from the ground up by their respective creators/code writers. When they were done, they had built a program that they could be proud of and built it IN HOUSE. Did a good job too. All three programs have excellent reps for detection, removal, etc. "Hitman Pro" just relies on other AV to get answrs.LAZY

maybe they have a partnerhip with those AVs and they have permission..

Besides its extremely fast scan speed this program knows EXACTLY (and WITHOUT help from any other av) which files to send to the cloud for naming. I wouldn't call that lazy but the holy grail among virusscanners!!
lance359 2 years ago
The "Holy Grail" of scanners doesn't need to rely on SIX other AV companies to help them. Many Top antivirus/antimalware apps reviewed by Matt use only their OWN program and technology to detect and clean malware and do it expertly. Matt has had perfect or near perfect results in some of his tests with various AV/AM apps. A skilled team of code writers makes their own program and it stands on it's own as an A Grade app built from the ground up. I'll pass on Hitman Pro.

I would disagree. I would prefer 5 different opinions than just one, its like you are scanning your system with 5 AV's at the same time. What is bad about that?
warwagon 2 years ago
Nothing's bad about it. My point was, in addition to Hitman using their own scanner, they rely on Other Cos for a complete/thorough job. Spyware Doctor, Drive Sentry, et al, do a complete job relying on their own product Only. Simply put, ANYONE can use Lots of other engines to enhance their work and then say Wow, look, a clean machine! To charge $ for that takes Gall. I cud do it free by using my AV, then SAS, then MBAM. Their product isn't original & shows NO code writing mastery.

But Hitman is also free lol plus it's easier for someone who has an infected machine already.

master protection. What's wrong about it? nothing. So what if it uses other antivirus system, G-data does that same thing. As long as it detects virus
h04ng000000000000000 2 years ago
Basically, nothing is wrong with it. It is effective. Using so many OTHER AVs, how could it not be.
However, I for one would not PAY these ppl $ wen I could use any number of Free programs and get the same results. Wots more, these ppl spent much time making "Hitman" and wot did they come up with? A system that relies on Other AVs about 85%!! Hardly an accomplishment. Anyone could've done that. Design your own AV and build it from the ground up like evrybody else. That's code writing.

He's using a virtual machine to simulate another OS for testing. If he doesn't, the malware would kill his system. XD

Although hitman uses five engines in the cloud, you should note, it uses only one (its own) engine on the PC it is installed on. If its own engine finds anything it thinks could be malware, it then sends the suspect file to the cloud where the five vendors scan it. It does NOT use seven engines as someone posted - I think they were counting A-Squared as having two engines - so it then being six in the cloud and also including the Hotman engine to make seven. This said, its one of the best AMs!

hey i have a question for you right now i have avast free antivirus that has real time protection and iobit 360 security that has real time protection for spyware and then i off course have malwarebytes and superantispyware but should i get the microsoft security essentials instead of avast and iobit ?

Yea i heard about it too, it's sure a big blow to IOBit as it was once considered a reputable company. It is still not confirmed who is TRULY guilty but I really hope that both parties will resolve the problem soon. =(

It actually uses 7 anti-malware products in the so called Scan Cloud. Hitman Pro is just 5MB in size and does not install anything. It is an on-demand scanner. It uses cloud computing so there is no impact on your system performance.
