Dr.Web CureIt is an anti-virus scanner that is based on the Dr.Web Scanning Engine. It is not a full Anti-virus suite, but rather a scanning utility*. This being that case, it does have some limitations in it's performance capabilities in comparison with Dr.Web Anti-virus for Windows, namely; no resident monitor, no command line scanner, and no updating utility. That being said, Dr.Web CureIt is more than capable of effectively scanning your PC and then undertake the necessary actions for any detected threats.
Dr.Web CureIt detects and neutralizes the following key malicious threats:
- Worms.
- Viruses.
- Trojans.
- Rootkits.
- Spyware.
- Adware.
- Dialers.
- Hacktools.
- Riskware.
Dr.Web CureIt is a great solution when you cannot install an Anti-virus suite due to virus activity. It does not require installation and will run on both 32 or 64-bit platforms, from Microsoft Windows XP and to Microsoft Windows 8.1.
