Tizer Secure™ Launches Three New Free Tools

by Shelley Koerber on Feb.18, 2010, under Computer Scan, Computer Security, Free Computer Security, Free tools, Malware, Rootkit, Rootkit Detection, Tizer Secure, Unlock files, Virus, X-Wire Technology

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. Click here for more details or to download.

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. It is currently the only anti-rootkit application compatible with the most common Windows operating systems.

Protect Yourself From Rootkits

by Shelley Koerber on Jan.21, 2010, under Free Computer Security, Malware, Rootkit, Virus

A rootkit is when malware, viruses, trojans, and spyware are hidden from computer users and even antivirus programs. They have malicious intent and give access to files and system information without your knowledge. A rootkit attacks your operating system while placing and hiding files. These hidden files are responsible for malicious activities.

For example:
1. A hidden process may indirectly run another process without the user knowing.
2. A hidden port, or a “back door,” may transfer some vulnerable data into your system or transfer some private data such as login information out of your system.
3. A hidden module loaded in a legitimate process may alter the normal behavior of that particular process.
4. Some hidden registry entries may be placed so that a virus/rootkit will start up automatically.

Rootkits alter files, change processes, and distribute spam. These can be attached to a trojan, file, graphic on the web, or spam email and they can tamper with computer files and processes that you cannot even see in the task manager. Only download software from trusted websites, delete spam without opening it, and avoid clicking on banners. Detecting a rootkit that has already infected your computer is easier than you think. Tizer Secure™ offers you protection to allow you to detect these hidden rootkits and easily remove them. Download the free Tizer™ Rootkit Razor removal tool at http://tizersecure.com/rootkitdownload.php. Clean and remove malicious objects that are on your computer today.
