McAfee Stinger - Clean your infected PC

McAfee Stinger is a free standalone virus scanner utility to detect and remove specific viruses, malware, rootkits, running processes, loaded modules, etc, ideal if your PC is already infected.

It is designed as a tool for use by administrators and experienced users to deal with infected systems and not as a general purpose anti-virus program.

This free Stinger tool deletes dangerous worms and viruses from your PC. It doesn't offer comprehensive virus protection, but is useful for cleaning a computer that is already infected.
In the current version more than 6,000 Viruses, Worms, Trojans and their variants are detected by the freeware. Which pests the program deals with are under the menu item "List Viruses" on the official website, as well as in the release notes.

It scans registry and directory locations known to be used by malware to avoid long scans. It uses current technology and easily fits on a USB drive. It detects over 6,000 viruses, trojans and variants, including rootkits, a number that increases as threats are added.

Stinger now includes Raptor - a real-time behavior detection technology that monitors suspicious activity on an endpoint. Raptor leverages machine learning and automated behavioral based classification in the cloud to detect zero-day malware in real-time.
