W32.Mimail.G Cleaner

W32.Mimail.G Cleaner is a small-sized and portable application designed to locate files infected with the Mimail.G variant of this worm, in order to remove it and restore stability to your machine. This malware agent infects computers through email attachments and distributes itself over the local network.

This program doesn't require previous experience with virus removal solutions. It performs most of the task on its own, requiring minimal supervision. System restart may be necessary to complete the removal operations, if the files in question are being used by the operating system at the time.

The interface is user-friendly, made from a basic window with a simple design and layout, where you can pick the scan scope between all fixed drives or just a particular one.

The scanning operation can be triggered with the click of a button, after which W32.Mimail.G Cleaner looks into known malware hiding spots, such as the registry and Windows directory. Any suspicious files are recorded in the task list, so you can examine search results on scan completion and pick the objects you want to get rid of, while keeping the rest.

The entire program's packed in two files, an .exe and a .sig with the fingerprint of Mimail.G, which can be saved anywhere on the disk or copied to a removable storage unit, in order to directly run the tool on any PC without setup. It doesn't create new files on the disk. In order to uninstall it, you just have to delete these two items.

It worked smoothly in our tests, without causing the operating system to hang, crash or prompt errors. CPU and RAM usage was minimal, so it didn't hamper the computer's performance. Just keep in mind that W32.Mimail.G Cleaner doesn't provide real-time protection from malware, so you still have to download and install an all-round security application.
