Emsisoft Emergency Kit 2.0 consists of the following components:
Emsisoft Emergency Kit Scanner
The malware scanner uses the established Emsisoft Anti-Malware scanner alongside its GUI. The program detects more than five million parasites with its dual-scan engine.
Emsisoft Commandline Scanner
This scanner features the same functions as the Emergency Kit Scanner, but without the GUI. It is controlled instead by the command line parameters. Professional users can integrate the program into automatic batch actions in an efficient manner.
Emsisoft HiJackFree
Experienced users can use this tool to detect and remove malware in a targeted manner. It is possible to take full control of the PC to directly access all active processes, drivers, services, autoruns and open ports.
Emsisoft BlitzBlank
It is not always possible to simply delete malware during operation. BlitzBlank puts things right and removes files, registry entries and drivers while booting up before Windows or any other program is loaded.
Emsisoft Emergency Kit 2.0 is free for private users. For professional users, we recommend low priced helpdesk licenses as well as an emergency USB stick for 20 USD, delivery included.
