BhoScanner

BhoScanner is a simplistic and intuitive application aimed at identifying BHO items (Browser Helper Objects) on your computer or a PC connected via LAN. Its features can be seamlessly figured out, even by users with less experience in software programs.

After a brief installation procedure, you are welcomed by a standard window with a well-defined layout, representing BhoScanner's interface.

All you have to do is write your IP address and let BhoScanner perform a scanning procedure. If you want to scan a computer remotely, then you require the administrator user name and password to bypass the security measures.

Once the scanning operation is done, you can check out the ID, type, file path, description and URL for each BHO. You can get additional information on each object, copy a row or all items to the Clipboard, as well as save the list to a plain text document (TXT format) for further analysis.

The straightforward program runs on a very low quantity of CPU and system memory, so it does not interfere with the runtime of other active processes. It is very responsive to key strokes and mouse events, and finishes a scanning job quickly. No error dialogs have bee shown in our tests and the tool did not hang or crash. Although BhoScanner is not very resourceful, it offers users a quick and effective solution to detect BHOs on their systems.
