HitmanPro 64 is the 64-bit version of the popular HitmanPro
anti-malware program. It's described by its authors, SurfRight, as a 'second
opinion' scanner designed to work in conjunction with your computer's existing
anti-virus and anti-malware software. It's an apt description because that's
exactly what it provides - a second opinion on the status of your files by
detecting malware, from viruses to trojans and more, that your main scanner was
unable to detect.
Maximum Protection
It's a well-known fact that no anti-malware program can detect all possible threats. At least two separate 'front-line' anti-malware programs would be needed to reduce the chances of infection to the barest minimum. In practice, however, that solution is likely to cause more problems than it solves as anti-malware programs are very likely to conflict with each other. That's where HitmanPro 64 comes in. It's designed to work with, and not against, your existing anti-malware program.
Scan Cloud
In addition to its own detection capabilities, another impressive feature of HitmanPro 64 is the 'scan cloud' that it can make use of when your computer is connected to the Internet. If it detects a suspicious piece of code, but can't decide whether or not it actually is malware, it uploads it to SurfRight's, scan cloud where the code is examined in detail using the scanning capabilities of five different anti-malware vendors. This virtually removes all doubt about any suspicious files.
Threat Removal
Scanning for malicious code is completely free with HitmanPro 64 at all times. If any threat is detected, you can pay to upgrade to the full service and have the malicious code removed. You can also take advantage of SurfRight's free 30-day trial before upgrading and have any detected malware removed free within that period.
HitmanPro 64 works on Windows operating systems, and there's no need to install it on your computer. It can operate from any USB flash-drive, network drive or CD/DVD.
