Sniffs out Worms, Trojan horses, Cookies, Adware, Spyware and more
Nowadays computer users need what seems to be an entire team of security applications to be sure their personal information, Internet activities and files stored on their systems are safe. In some cases, there is a certain missing piece of the security puzzle, called WinPatrol.
This tiny utility helps you fight against malicious files, hijacking attempts and hidden system configuration attempts by keeping an eye on your data all the time.
At first glance, WinPatrol has a lot of options and so many features that you really don't know which one to click. However, all the functions are neatly organized in their own tabs, each with a particular set of configurations available.
First of all, WinPatrol helps you deal with startup programs in a very innovative way. Not only that you're able to view the processes that run every time you start the computer, but you can also set up delayed starts to be sure it won't take too much to boot the operating system.
More so, you can easily manage the running tasks through the dedicated tab, finding out information such as the file size and the module.
Of course, since it's so important in the fight against malicious files, WinPatrol also allows you to manage Internet Explorer or Firefox cookies with a single click. Plus, it provides access to hidden files, as some spyware attempt to hide their files as soon as they reach the computer.
The number of features bundled into WinPatrol is absolutely unbelievable for such a lightweight application. Also, it is so easy to use that even less experienced users will get along with it just fine.
All these considered, it's obvious that WinPatrol is one of the top applications that should be on the must-have list of every user out there.
WinPatrol will alert you to Spyware, Adware, & nasty programs that may infiltrate your computer without your knowledge.
Scotty the Windows Watch Dog sniffs out malicious "mysteryware" and parasites that may assault your computer. WinPatrol puts you back in control of your computer so you'll know what programs are and should be running at all times. WinPatrol is a security tool that protect you from worms, trojan, cookies, adware, spyware.
WinPatrol's goal is to help you better understand what programs are running on your computer, and alert you to any new programs added without your permission. Scotty lets you confirm any new programs set up to run on your computer.
WinPatrol uses a heuristic approach to detecting attacks and violations of your computing environment. Traditional security programs scan your hard drive searching for previously identified threats.
WinPatrol takes snapshot of your critical system resources and alerts you to any changes that may occur without your knowledge. You'll be removing dangerous new programs while others download new reference files.
Don't be surprised when you see programs not listed by typical Startup Program managers. WinPatrol has expanded the number of locations monitored to include many undocumented registry locations.
NOTE: While the free version is fully functional at detecting and removing spyware/adware we recommend WinPatrol PLUS for a complete WinPatrol experience. PLUS membership is a one time purchase and helps to support future development.
