Shodan is the worlds first search engine for Internet-connected devices. The lack of a "quick scan" is going to be a problem sometimes, but if you mostly just need an emergency "second opinion" scanner it should be a great choice. Search Engine for the Internet of Everything. RogueKiller is a powerful malware hunter which uses a wide range of technologies to detect threats. Note this is the portable version of RogueKiller for 64-bit PCs. There's always the risk of legitimate software being flagged as malicious, though, so we'd recommend you check the report carefully, make sure you understand exactly what it's going to do. Plus, since the developers wrote Rootkit Hunter in the Bourne shell, its extremely portable and compatible with a huge number of UNIX-based systems. Rootkit Hunter uses the SHA-1 hashing algorithm to detect any malware.

The most dangerous threats are highlighted by default, so you could just click Delete and clean them all at once. Like Chkrootkit, rkhunter scans your Linux system for rootkits, backdoors, and other exploits.

The final report includes a great deal of useful information on possibly dubious startup programs, HOSTS file lines, proxy and DNS settings, drivers, shortcuts, MBR code and more. (You may have to wait a while, though, as there's no "quick scan" in the free build - it's all or nothing). It's also easy to use: just click Scan and wait. The program doesn't rely on virus signatures, which is good for detecting the latest threats. RogueKiller is a tool which aims to help you to detect and remove malware from your PC.
