[QUOTE="Cats-4_Owners-2, post: 662293, member: 15495"] Personally, I have had good experiences using HitmanPro since originally placing it on our now defunct XP system, & trying it, happily, around the same time as stumbling upon our Oasis of information (here) that is MalwareTips!:D As has already been shared, consider HitmanPro as primarily a secondary scanner, although HitmanPro Alert is additionally a realtime program that's always 'on'. It can be disabled as a startup program on Windows Task Manager. I like it and, luckily, have not deleted any valuable items ..that I'm aware of.. (yet) as Nikolay. As Fritz mentioned, it displays which traces, cookies, and possibly unwanted programs, you may be deleting, but it can often be easy to overlook things when our eyes:rolleyes: aren't paying attention to what our mouse <clicks> are agreeing to.o_O A bonus is "keyboard encryption" (included with HitmanPro Alert) although it is a good practice checking to see whether it is working at all times. As I did not see that it was, today, while logging onto MT using Pale Moon Browser, I fell back upon using Keyscrambler to encrypt my logon typing. Bottom line: Try it out, see how it meets your needs (or not) and decide whether it is, in fact, a program you'd like for your system.:) I do!:D [/QUOTE]
