Comodo "Cloud Scanner" (download)

Comodo Cloud Scanner (CCS) is an easy to use tool that quickly and accurately identifies malware, viruses, suspicious processes and other problems with your computer. It harnesses all the scanning power of Comodo Internet Security and Comodo System-Cleaner and packages them inside a lightweight and sleek desktop interface. What's more, instead of using your computers processing power to run a scan, CCS connects to Comodo's powerful online servers and gets them to do all the hard work instead. Put simply, there's never been an easier or more accurate way to diagnose potential problems on your PC.

Four Scanners In One
CCS isn't just about finding malware and viruses, it also helps you identify other types of files that might be causing problems. Here's the full run-down:

* Malware / Suspicious File Scanner
Comodo Cloud Scanner offers an extremely fast way of finding out whether your computer has viruses, root-kits, worms, suspicious drivers/services and non-trusted processes. Apart from using a locally installed white-list of trusted executables, CCS also uses a real-time file look-up service to identify malware and suspicious (untrusted) files. The scanner is also great at discovering any hidden processes that are running on your computer - processes which may have been started by malicious software.

* Registry Scanner
Whenever you perform a task such as installing or removing a program or modifying a file on your computer, Windows creates an entry in the Windows Registry to reflect this change. Over time, these entries become disorganized and cluttered and slow down your computer. This is because, as the size of the registry grows, it takes longer and longer for Windows to sift through it to locate and update the entries for any new tasks you are carrying out. In short, your system becomes sluggish and slow. Cloud Scanner identifies Windows Registry problems by running an in-depth scan to find any unnecessary or corrupt or malicious keys. After cleaning the registry, Windows will be able to access the information it needs from the registry much more quickly - meaning your computer will get an immediate performance and stability boost.

* Junk File Scanner
Over time your disk drives become cluttered with temporary Internet files, logs, needless archives, unused icons and duplicate files. These junk files take up valuable hard disk space and can have a negative impact on the performance of your computer. Examples include temporary files created by Windows, files retained in the Recycle bin, Windows log files, temporary Internet files, temporary files created by Office Suite and more besides. CCS will scour your system and identify all those files that you could happily live without.

* Privacy Scanner
Windows and other popular software keeps a record of your recent activities in the form of temp files, histories, cache files, cookies and usage records. This data represents a potential security threat because it might be accessed by hackers or other people that use your computer. For example, anybody with access to this information can know exactly what you were working on, which Internet sites you have visited and can read a full transcript of your instant messenger conversations. CCS helps to protect you from identity theft by comprehensively identifying all traces of personal data that may be lurking in Internet browsers, IM clients and many other applications.
