Hello,

yes WinHKI.

Do you have download the zipper. There are 4 programs.
The Anti-Virus is really good. You can use other Anti-Virus Scanner and this Checksums checker.

Based on the description of hki's antivirus HERE (http://www.winhki.com/en/winhkiav1.htm), it is in reality a file integrity checker. Quote-in-part...
-{ Quote: "What is WinHki Anti-Virus?
The program is the whole complement to your virus scanner. The great advantage is, that WinHKI Anti-Virus checks the background of Windows whether there are suspicious modifications. It works completely on system check in this case. If there is a virus or worm, which have overlooked from your virus scanner or haven't recognized, WinHKI Anti-Virus will join in. It examines files, which nest in the system or files, which change their size suddenly. For that are mostly Win32-PE-viruses responsible. The program only requires 0,2 MB of place on the hard disk. ... That you are able to use WinHKI Anti-Virus correctly, you only have to make your system to
calculate the checksums (press "calculate the checksums")..." }-

Are there any adventurous souls here at Wilders, to give this AV a trial? BC? FF? bigc? Anyone? 8)" }-
Hi,

I did and it is running..........it is looking at checksums only and will alert (I think) when something changes. I don't notice any strange system behaviour.

@Gerard- I was modifying my post during which time you entered your information. I apologize for the confusion. Thanks for giving hki a trial. I hope you will post more info later, as you have further experience.

Attached is a screenshot of the AVirus.
Scan interval is set in this case on 30 seconds which you can set by yourself to any number from 1 second.
When scanning in my case it uses about 43% CPU, however scanning time is not even 1 (one) second. So about simular to Bazooka.

Hi Gerly,

I dont know if it is good, I have nothing to check it. Stable? It just sits there in the systray and watch for any changes in checksums :-\. Furthermore look at the shots in my earlier posts.
I would say just try it, can't do any harm I can think of.
Regards,

Gerard
