PestPatrol defeats the threat by detecting and removing Remote access trojans
June 18, 2004 -- PestPatrol defeats the threat by detecting and removing Remote access trojans
PestPatrol is a powerful security and personal privacy tool that detects and eliminates destructive pests like trojans, spyware, adware and hacker tools.
It complements your anti-virus and firewall software, extending your protection against non-viral malicious software that can evade your existing security and invade your personal privacy. These pests often lurk silently on your computer until something - or someone - sets them off.
When that happens, you could lose passwords, personal data, credit card numbers, and - if you telecommute and connect to your office via a VPN - open up a back door for the hacker into your entire company network.
PestPatrol defeats the threat by detecting and removing:
- Spyware and Adware that "phones home" information about you, your computer, and your surfing habits
- Remote access trojans (RATs) that allow an attacker to remotely control your computer
- Keystroke loggers that can steal passwords and other confidential data
- Denial-of-service (DoS) attack agents that can crash or hang a program, or your entire system
- Probe tools that look for vulnerabilities on your system that a hacker can exploit
PestPatrol Main Features:
PestPatrol's easy-to-use interface, automatic updates and extensive on-line research center make it simple to keep your computer clear of unwanted pests. A 2002 PC Magazine Five Star Utility, PestPatrol allows you to surf with confidence, knowing that your personal information stays private and your computer stays secure.
PestPatrol can:
- Scans all or selected file types, including inside archives
- Scans memory for active pests and kills the process
- Zaps spyware cookies before they can phone home about you
- Stops known and unknown keyloggers from hooking your keyboard
- Quarantines or deletes any identified pest
- Checks and removes pests from registry and start-up areas
- Downloads and installs updates automatically on availability
- Tells you the specific threat level of any pest found
