Computer botnets are extremely dangerous and are facilitated by rootkit infections. A botnet is a network of infected computers that can be used for sending out spam, stealing personal information, altering files, changing processes, cyber terrorism, etc.  Hackers use these for various illegal and criminal activities.  It is estimated that over 60 million computers worldwide are infected by botnets.  Rootkits are one of the most complex and insidious type of malware that are extremely difficult to detect and remove.  They can download updates to keep ahead of malware detection tools, as well as download new virus payloads that they install inside their encrypted folders to avoid detection.

Tizer Secure™ has done in-depth research on these botnets and rootkit infections and is providing sophisticated new tools developed utilizing proprietary technology for Windows users to combat them.   The most recently updated dangerous rootkits are Rustock, 4DW4R3, and TDL3 and we offer new tools to detect and safely remove them for free.

Tizer™ Rootkit Razor is our most advanced rootkit removal tool and the newest release is able to detect and safely remove rootkits Rustock and 4DW4R3.  It is compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and 7 (32-bit only) and the newest release is available for download at http://www.tizersecure.com/about_tizer_rootkit_removal.php.

Our team was able to come up with a newer technique to combat the latest version of TDL3 and we have launched a new free tool to detect and remove this particular rootkit called Tizer™ TDL3 Razor.  TDL3 is one of the most dangerous rootkits that will infect Windows XP machines.  It was updated recently over the internet by its developers, making it nearly impossible to detect or remove through traditional security solutions.    TDL3 Razor is able to detect and safely remove the rootkit TDL3 on Windows XP machines with Intel processors and hard disks that use atapi.sys or iaStor.sys drivers.  To the best of our knowledge, TDL3 Razor is the only tool available today that can detect and remove this nasty rootkit infection on both of these drivers.  Microsoft has a malicious software removal tool that appears to include a utility to remove Alureon (another name for the TDL3 rootkit), but in our testing it was able to detect but unable to remove it.  Tizer™ TDL3 Razor can be downloaded for free at http://www.tizersecure.com/about_TDL3_rootkit_detect_remove.php.

This week we have launched three new tools that are free for personal use. Over the years, computer usage has become part of everyday life and the amount of malicious threats has risen dramatically as users leave computer ports open while surfing the internet. These free tools are Tizer™ UnLocker, Tizer™ SysScan, and Tizer™ Rootkit Razor. All are compatible with Windows XP, Vista, and 7 (32-bit) and have been listed on all major free download websites.

Tizer™ UnLocker is a powerful tool that gives you control over locked files and folders that may be in use by an application. If you are faced with a situation where you want to use, delete, move, or rename a file and get an error message that you can’t, UnLocker is your solution. The advantage it has over similar products is that it allows the user to kill or unlock multiple processes, as well as delete, rename, and move files. It also does not require you to reboot your system after deleting a file like other freeware does. Click here for more details or to download this free useful tool. Tizer™ UnLocker has already been awarded 5/5 stars by soft82.com.

Tizer™ SysScan generates a report for you after it scans your system files, processes, DLLs, and registry. It shows you both legitimate software and unwanted malware and if you are not an expert you may save the log to ask for technical advice on a forum. You also have the option to send your log to the Tizer™ Secure support team for a free analysis. Tizer™ SysScan has a strong advantage over similar tools because it will display hidden processes, modules, drivers, and registry entries while others don’t.

Tizer™ Rootkit Razor will detect malicious rootkits on your computer through multiple methodologies. It will detect and remove them without damaging your system. Stop rootkits from altering files, changing processes, or stealing your personal information. Take advantage of our advanced rootkit detection technology and find out more details here.
