![]() AV database - Helps diagnose malware known to AVZ and removes it.The purpose of the application is as follows: The term “spy” provides the most fitting description for this class of programs. For such eventualities, a common category called “spy” was introduced to include both adware and spyware. Practice shows that very often a spyware application can be categorized as adware and the other way around, for the simple reason that targeted advertising is the purpose of spying in most cases. When files are being quarantined, AVZ prevents known files from being added to quarantine. Trusted processes are color-coded in the manager of running processes and SPI settings. In particular, the file search system has a filter for excluding known files from search results. This database helps to minimize the number of false positives returned by the heuristics analyzer while also serving a number of other purposes. In addition to the signature-based file search capability that is standard for programs in its class, AVZ incorporates a database of digital signatures of tens of thousands of system files. ![]() Such search methods make it possible to detect new varieties of malware. These checks include searching for rootkits, keyloggers, and various backdoor exploits against a database of standard TCP/UDP ports. For example, you can configure it to remove any viruses or trojans detected, while blocking the removal of adware.Īnother feature of AVZ is multiple heuristic checks that are not based on signature-based search. Classification methods and criteria are described in these help files.Ī feature of AVZ is that it enables the user to configure the way the application responds to every category of malware. ![]() Yet very often the dividing line between spyware and trojans is very thin, complicating precise classification. This means that the information they upload does not contain critical data, such as passwords, credit card numbers, or the like, while the downloaded data contains only ads or program updates. They spy on the user and download data and program code to the infected computer mainly for marketing purposes. It should be noted from the outset that spyware and adware applications are not viruses or trojans by definition. Its primary task is removal of adware, spyware and trojans. The toolkit is a direct analog of such applications as Trojan Hunter and LavaSoft Ad-aware 6.
