ESET Online Scanner is an unpaid tool, is able to scan for and remove malware from computers. It employs the same ThreatSense technology and signatures as ESET Smart Security or ESET NOD32 antivirus security software. This allows it to be capable of detecting and eliminating all kinds of malware without the need for installation. It can also scan numerous areas of the computer, including autostart areas and boot sectors as well as the registry. It also has the ability to fix problems that arise during the restart of the computer or re-scan files which were previously thought to be infected.
Since this is a web-based program, it is accessed by anyone with access to the internet. Once it’s been launched users can choose which components of their computer they want to check for malware. It may take a while because the application needs to download the most current signature databases before it can begin scanning. After the scanning process is completed you will be able to view the results and any threats found will be removed. It is important to note that this software doesn’t offer continuous protection, but can be used to detect dangerous components before they have the chance to cause any harm.
Overall, it is a helpful tool to remove malware from your computer. It is especially helpful if it is not protected by other antivirus software. It may not offer as much protection as paid solutions, but it is still miles ahead of most online scanners that are free and can look over multiple areas of the computer.
