are they including the virus total as of form of info in the gui?thanks

 

Hi jmonge,

I'm afraid that I am not understanding your question, sorry.
English is not my native language, neither is it the native language of the developer.
What exactly are you asking?

 

in the program it includes virus total to check for files to see if they are infected does it?thanks

 

Actually I wanted you to be more specific about your question, where, when, etc. RegRun is a "complicated" tool with lots of parts.
Anyhow, well, yes, it gives you the ability to check a file in VirusTotal.

I'll give one example on XP-home SP3 (Dutch) about a file from IEClean (from formerly PSC; Kevin and Nancy).

In RegRun I go to Start Control, Startup Group.
I see ietsr.exe mentioned.



At the right side I click on "Good or Bad?"
If I am connected to the internet, the file will be checked at VirusTotal.
I'll get a screen telling me something, depending on the results.



I want to know why it could be bad, so I click on it.
I get:



Hmm, I know for sure that it is good. Maybe it wasn't previous checked at VirusTotal. Let's let RegRun check it again. It does it again at VirusTotal.
I get:



I click on "Detailed View".



Well, actually the file wasn't known in the RegRun Application Database.
Can I do something about that? Yes, I can.

 

thanks fanJ

 

I can click on "Add to Application Database".



After I have done that, and checking it again, I get:



So, as I already knew about this particular file that it is safe, RegRun is now telling that too (well, I told it to do so!).

Even better is to submit that file to Greatis so they can add it generally into the RegRun Application Database.

Well, that's it.
It's just only one small example.

 

cool man thanks for the explanation

 

You're welcome, jmonge.
I hope that it answered your question.
It was just only a very small example.

(PS: please do keep in mind that no anti-x is perfect!)

 

yes i agree thanks
