"SAVED ME WHEN A ZERO DAY VIRUS TOOK OVER MY MACHINE!"
Version: Rootkit Buster 1.6
Pros
I was attacked by what I later learned was a rootkit virus; disabled my antivirus program; couldn't access online scanners/websites. Download this to thumb drive. Ran it. It cleaned my machine and I was able to proceed.
Cons
How can I criticize something that saved me?
Summary
Download it; save it in a folder but change the name of the exe so bugs don't scan your machine to delete known effective malware exe files. Know where you keep it.
