--- a-squared HiJackFree and a-squared Anti-Dialer 3.0 released! ---

The free tool for professional malware hunters and the free anti-dialer are available in a new major version now.

The most important news: Both programs are fully compatible with Microsoft's latest operating system, Windows Vista.

New features in a-squared HiJackFree 3.0:

* New multifunctional toolbar with search feature

The structure of the user interface has been improved and a new search feature has been integrated. In a similar manner to Vista Explorer, you can now enter a search term in the process list and all matching entries are displayed.

* New filter for benign processes

The toolbar provides a number of new filters. For example, you can hide all Microsoft files with a single mouse click. Another filter can be used to hide all signed program files whose manufacturer can be uniquely verified. This leaves only suspicious processes that you should examine more closely.

* Better coloring

Alongside the proven coloring of the processes, with green meaning "benign", yellow meaning "requires checking" and red meaning "suspicious", the new version also uses dark green to highlight "signed" program files. When a program has a code certificate then the author of the program can be uniquely identified. Worms and Trojans are not normally signed in this manner.

* Improved Autoruns section

HiJackFree could previously only display and manage the Autorun entries of the current user (Registry branch HKCU) and the system wide Autoruns (HKLM). The new version allows the Registry entries of all other users, and the system accounts, to be checked for suspicious Autoruns.
