SanityCheck: Detecting rootkits, malware, hidden processes

Do you notice your computer slow? Do you feel that is unstable? Is there something you do not finish painting? Probably, and if my calculations do not fail, you have some sort of malware on your system. How can you determine if you have malware on your system?

Easy: SanityCheck is a free program for Windows XP/Vista/7/2003, etc. In English, which allows the user (advanced clarifications) to detect malware and rootkits on the system. A rootkit is a type of malware that hides itself and other malicious processes.

SanityCheck has a simple interface to use as a presence in the screenshot above, it is clear that the program requires advanced knowledge for its proper use is not aimed at users with basic computer knowledge.

Something to be noted is that SanityCheck of basically what it does is analyze the behavior of any application, file or process, depending on what they discussed, I said if it could be harmful or not, then you recomendándote a nice antivirus.

Rather serves as a benchmark to have a clear idea if we have malware on your system. SanityCheck thus becomes a powerful tool to determine what we have in the system, because if this can affect the proper functioning.
