Zoek.exe - Malware Scanner

Maybe another tool for the arsenal ?

This is a malware and general log creator. I was searching for a way to remove snap.do, and came across references to this.



It appears legit, and has been mentioned on the Malwarebytes and avast websites. It may be worth your perusal.

Edit 2: a little disconcerting that I can't find a homepage.

hijackthis.nl is a reputable enough of a source. Might be one of those times where the author doesn't have their own official page but distributes it through a better-known one.

Smeenk is an Admin of hijackthis.nl.

Checked it on Virustotal:

Qihoo-360 HEUR/Malware.QVM18.Gen 20140212

VT...Sophos, too. False Positive...

 

[Galdorf]

New version is out with check boxes as well as script best cleaner i have found to date.

Many legitimate antimalware tools get flagged by AV programs because the signatures in the antimalware programs trip the scanners resulting in false positives. Hard to really check such tools because of that.

hijackthis is a great program - have used it for years, now.
