Recommend some good and free on-demand anti-trojan software

Personally have not talked about your delphi projects. I have stated my experience with a-squared. Never tried to create something in Delphi or have something Delphi dev related installed, so I can't tell. For sure I respect your opinion and I agree that you have passed a bad experience seeing hundreds or thousasds of files flagged. But a txt file as a malware...this is hard to believe and never happened to me under normal usage. I'm curious about that text file. What was in it?

 

Having a useless service running all the time in the background for nothing in the On-demand free version was the reason for me. Otherwise it should probably be a decent on-demand tool when you need it.

 

I wish I had the hours back that I wasted checking into FP's with that program.

 

What does A-Squared pick up that MalWareBytes doesn't?

 

you mean this one?

I have SAS and MAM... so does a-squared have a place in there too?

 

Sure it's free

 

A-Squared free found about the same as PrevX 3.0 did but you have to pay for removal with PrevX 3.0 but A-Squared free finds it and removes it for free. I would recommend going into Safe mode and use the A-Squared and CMD scanners seem to fun faster and able to detect and more the hidden cloaked-malware for removal or quarantine. The ones listed below are the best to use. Rising Sun PC Doctor has ondemand scanner for USB devices can block them from loading. Still not bad..

 

Maybe its off topic, but regarding A-Squared:
A-Squared found 42 on my system, and 42 of that 42 are FP. How is that? An inexperienced user will let A-Squared remove the files and legal documents are gone...

Like shooting everybody who comes through the main door, because it might be a thief... too many FP in my opinion.

 

FPs 42 you say, interesting.. It only about 34 most it said was bad cookies and the high threat cloak-malware that was reported by PrevX. None of these programs are 100% but any user should read before they apply to fix or clean.

Have you come across the Recycle virus that makes accessing internal drives non-active.
