I just ran a full scan with Dr. Web CureIt and I was surprised, and pleased to see that it completed in less than 8 minutes.

Wondering? If I disable/turning off the realtime on Emsisoft and Malwarebtye, if their would be conflict? Meaning, that I could run Dr. Web CureIt with causing damage on my Windows 8 X64 Operating System. Hmmm!

quite possibly so Moose.. I have read of both MBAM and Emsisoft having conflicts with CureIt, maybe CureIt! has built in toooo many protective mechanisms

A couple of months ago I tried Dr.Web CureIt and cause the to reboot and show error! After, I disable/turn off Emsisoft and Malwarebtyes. This is why
I am asking? Thank's for the information.

This is a great product. I have used this on a couple of infected computers I helped fix. I used it to get an infected computer to a usable state and finished things off with Malwarebytes. In my case, malware has yet to block Dr. Web CureIt from running.

I have always trusted it to be my AV, though it is not realtime. I run it every three weeks or so. It has it's own safe mode, which could come in handy.

Dr. Web CureIt is an excellent auto malware removal tool to treat live infections, it has the ability to put all running processes in suspense mode excluding Microsoft processes while it scans which makes it able to effectively remove infections without having to boot in Windows Safe Mode. Of coarse it is best to disable your real-time security products just in case there might pose a problem.

Of coarse it is always best to run any removal tool in Windows Safe Mode to make sure nothing interferes with it.

Thanks.:D
