Introduction

Spy-Killer

Imagine you own a small company that has a few high-profile clients. One day you discover that confidential data you store about these clients including credit card numbers, personal contact information, and promotional plans is being broadcast over the web for all to see. You have no clue how it's happening or how to stop it.

This means that someone could be:

  • Capturing and recording every website you visit
  • Capturing and recording every email you read or write
  • Capturing and recording every chat room you enter

Spy-Killer Quick Start

The Spy-Killer title screen shows five buttons which lead to different sections:

  • Scan Now For a quick start using your default scanning settings, click this button.
  • Backups Use this option to organize, restore or delete your backups.
  • Configuration Click this button to open the configuration menu.
    • Startup Settings This screen allows the user to provide a password and run software in stealth mode, and startup settings.
  • Shield Prevent certain types of spyware / adware from being downloaded
  • Remove Shield Allows these types of spyware /adware to be downloaded

Setting the scanning options

When you start Spy-Killer the first time, no sections to scan are specified. Select which sections you want Spy-Killer to scan in the list at the left side. Initially you should select the memory-scan, both registry scans and the drive where your Windows installation resides. It is not necessary to always scan all drives, but recommended from time to time. Your scanning settings will be stored and used the next time when Spy-Killer is started. If you have Spy-Killer autostarting with Windows, the same settings will be used.

Note: The only exception is if you run Spy-Killer from the explorer by right-clicking a drive or folder. In this case only the particular drive\folder will be scanned, but your scanning settings will not be overwritten and used again when Spy-Killer is started regulary the next time.

A grayed icon means that some, but not all subsections are selected. For example, check the "My computer" icon to quickly set Spy-Killer for a complete system scan. To start scanning, press the appropriate Button in the title screen.

While scanning...

Depending on your selection, the scan may take from a second up to a few minutes. The progress bar indicates the remaining time for the current operation. Watch the "summary" section while scanning, it gives you an overview about detected spyware components. Once the scan is complete, you should take a look in the log file Spy-Killer has generated. If spyware has been detected, it is recommended to save it to disk for later analysis. Click the "continue" button to obtain a list of all detected components (if any).

Note : To abort scanning, click the "Cancel" button to return to the title screen immediately.

Reinstalling components from a backup

If you wish to reinstall components you previously removed using Spy-Killer, open the backup-manager from the title screen, and choose the desired backup in the following list. After selecting the backup, click the "Restore" button to start the installation.

Editing the "Ignorelist"

Sometimes you want to keep an particular snoopware system remaining on your system, and don't want Spy-Killer to detect its components over and over again. For this purpose an ignorelist has been implemented in Spy-Killer. You find the ignorelist under configuration\ignorelist.

Any item in this list will be treated separately by Spy-Killer, it will still be recognized, but not show up in the scan-result list and it won't be able to be removed.
