Data protection is one of the main concerns of most computer users. With threats increasing in variety and complexity more and more, it’s no wonder that many want to use additional security-related applications alongside their permanent antivirus solution to help keep their PCs free of malicious content. Portable RogueKiller is one example.

As the portable counterpart of RogueKiller, this application requires no installation and will not affect the system’s registry during usage. You simply have to launch it, go through the license agreement, and you’re good to go.

Portable RogueKiller can start scanning your computer for malware, mainly targeting rootkits, worms, and rogues. It can identify potentially dangerous or suspicious files (PUPs), along with unwanted modifications of the system’s settings, which are mostly carried out without the user’s consent (one example is the change of the default browser’s homepage).

Based on two powerful scanning engines (a heuristics one and a signature-based one), this application thoroughly analyzes key areas of the system, starting with the system memory (running processes and services) and continuing with the scheduled tasks, the registry, the hosts file, the MBR section, and the configuration settings of installed web browsers.

Files that are detected as malware are removed and sent to quarantine, and a scan report is automatically generated by Portable RogueKiller. An external scanner can also be used by the application if you want to enhance its accuracy. Nevertheless, note that Portable RogueKiller is already equipped with a good anti-rootkit module to improve detection rates.

Portable RogueKiller is worth a try if you suspect your computer might be infected. It’s easy to use and, alongside rootkits and worms, it can also identify PUPs or unauthorized system changes, which makes it a valuable asset for any computer user.
