I tried to install it on an XP machine and it did not work. I should have looked at the list of supported OS's before installing!
Save | Cancel
No issues. Program installed successfully, registered to Pro version and ran a successful scan on Windows 10 64-Bit. I hve never encountered any problems with GAOTD software. My only con is this is a 1 year license, which I usually do not install. I opted to install this to see if there would be any problems. There were none as previously noted.
Save | Cancel
Thanks for this program, William Harris. I installed it on my Windows 10 64x with no issues. The upgrade registration worked like a charm. I ran it to perform the threats scan with nothing found. I am now running a full scan on my C drive which will take some time. I hope it finds nothing :)

I tried to suggest an idea and it would not let me. It would be great to be able to schedule a boot scan.

Nancy Stoll, This program has been scanning for almost 20 hours now. The number of objects scanned has stopped at 4480418. I went to their website which is very unhelpful. An attempt to contact them via their own website contact results in "Failed to send your message. Please try later or contact the administrator by another method." There is no other method to contact them. I am getting ready to delete this program from my computer out of frustration. I have no idea if it finished scanning or not and with no report, I have no idea if the program is even efficient.

When I finished installing Secure Hunter, I was giving the option of opening the program and/or their website. I opted for their website and upon opening the page my WOT program lit up, you know, warning me of the website safety (has malware, untrustworthy for kids and adults). I know that GOTD checks for malware; is this a false positive or a true positive or something endemic to my computer?
Than you.

I've been malware analysis for about 10 years and i do know that secure hunter works ,i would give it a 5 starts because of its high dependability and lightness on the PC OS.

My full time security is handled by Bitdefender Total Security. For manual second opinion/security scans I use up to date versions of MBAM, Emsisoft, and Superantispyware. I'm also behind a router. So I'm well protected. But I decided to give Secure Hunter Pro a try anyway. Everything went well(download, install, update, etc.). Ran a quick scan without issue and no nasties found. On the surface, Secure Hunter performed just like one would expect. I only have a couple of complaints. I couldn't find a place to choose which drive/partition to scan. It automatically scanned C Drive. But I have two drives or partitions and would like that option just in case. My second complaint is that it doesn't place an option in the right click menu to scan a file or folder. With BD, MBAM, Super, and Emsi, any file or folder that I right click I am given an option to scan it with one or another of these. So that's it: List all drives and give a right click option to scan a file/folder. Aside from this, I like Secure Hunter. And I will keep it in my security folder as a backup manual scanner. Thank you Secure Hunter and GAOTD.

OOps. Read Williams post and learned that drive scan option is given after choosing full scan. Thanks. But now I can think of another minor issue. It needs a scan progress bar or something to give you an idea of time remaining during scan.

The concept of protection from "badware" is misunderstood by most of us including the developer. The known "badware" is not a threat and can be removed with myriad of other software, what makes is impossible to claim a protection from "badware" is the morphing of "badware" and in order to stop it, you need to know upfront the name, attachment or infected files, because there are so many ways a virus can attach itself to anything.
I have seen viruses split in many small parts and attached to several drivers and when these drivers are loaded when OS start, they combine and attack the host.
Removing it would be impossible unless you know the sequence of events that trigger the virus, therefore, do not believe in a protection without knowing the cause.

Morgan
I agree on some of the things
But ...
Anti-malware programs can combat malware in two ways:
They can provide real time protection against the installation of malware software on a computer.
This type of malware protection works the same way as that of antivirus protection in that the anti-malware software scans all incoming network data for malware and blocks any threats it comes across.
Anti-malware software programs can be used solely for detection and removal of malware software that has already been installed onto a computer. This type of anti-malware software scans the contents of the Windows registry, operating system files, and installed programs on a computer and will provide a list of any threats found, allowing the user to choose which files to delete or keep, or to compare this list to a list of known malware components, removing files that match. (Wikipedia)
That is what we do
Thank you

Secure hunter is supposed to be your PC’s hero. The vigilante who works in the shroud of darkness to get rid of malware and threats long before you discover them. In my opinion, this is what an antivirus does. But Secure Hunter insists that it isn’t. It claims to be a hunter who focuses on just identifying and dealing with malware.At a glance
I really couldn’t tell what to do next after launching Secure Hunter. I have to admit, the installation and activation process is simple and straightforward. But that’s just all about it.
I find the user interface a little bit cluttered. Too much information and features plastered on the main application pane. You will need a minute or two to figure out what is going on.
Save | Cancel
Doc
I notice you didn't respond to William's request for a link to this supposed review which you claim downgrades Secure Hunter's abilities.
And to quote you: 'I really couldn’t tell what to do next after launching Secure Hunter.' Well, I'm an elderly user yet I had not problems. The interface was very intuitive for me and I easily found the huge 'scan now ' button - at the top of the interface - and then chose the type of scan I needed and then which drives I wanted to scan.

Wendy just use Google and you will find the article in PC Magazine December 2015 that rated 10 spyware / malware applications i wrote the article with two others . And responding to an automated robot who does not speak english is silly . Also a company that uses nationally known computer resource reviews and then copies and pastes themselves into it like they won several awards is a company you do not trust . Ask others Wendy

Too many question marks with this (endorsed by no-one) giveaway for me.
Reading comments on other sites like:-
"ClamAV had a 87% rate while this had a lovely 18%"
"The fact that it doesn't even catch the EICAR test downloads is a red flag to me"
I'll pass even trying this.

Well, I tried hard to trust this giveaway, really hard. I'm sort of in the market for another anti-malware product and a free "Pro" version with a years free database access seemed like a real deal. Yes, I'd never heard of this product before and yes the developers could use another year or two of English instruction (at least their spokesperson here). I can get by with both of those "issues" and have before with other software. But........ then I made the mistake of going to their website. Stock, generic photos of their "employees" abound. The poor syntax of the writing continues. Much talk but little real information about , well....... anything. When you try to download the Company Profile, from THEM mind you, it returns a 404 Error. Not once but multiple times. Then.... lol well then I went to their Contact information. The residential condos that make up "The Blue" in Miami sure look nice! But I am extremely dubious that they allow ANY commercial offices there. Much less a thriving software development company. I have to decline whoever's peddling this software's "kind offer". Thank you GOTD for trying!

Loaded on W10 Home x64. Works but UPDATE might not? Starts a new window, says s/w up to date, then says starting service (Service shows it running), then closes. Main window still says "Anti-Malware, Please Update 2/14"???
Changes some settings, didn't want it to start with Windows or the Real Time Scanning running during the program test. Chose a FULL SCAN and it is running. Scan Progress Information is USELESS. Says "Full System Hunter Started...", OK, but that is NOT information in my book. I know that... Can tell it is running as START SCAN changed to STOP SCAN! In the Progress box OBJECT is just a number. Means NOTHING to me. Might if I knew the total number of objects to scan? When not show in Information the object (name) being scanned already?
So far been running for 22 minutes and I have no idea how much longer this will take or where it is at in terms of what drive it is on (assuming it is done sequentially through each drive)?

Hi
Thank you for the feedback
1. When you select Full system scan you can select what drives to scan.
2. Scan Location shows "Scanning Files & Folders..." change with progress like start up progress
3. "Running for 22 minutes " let it run if you have a big size drive
4. Use the in the PRO version "Scan scheduled" option will run automatically no need to wait...
Good day

1) Yes, you can select drives. Found by restarting after selecting them that it did NOT hold. Wished it did. Tried to enter a suggestion for this but it never appeared? Also shows my Card Reader slots which are empty, good, but I never really have anything in them. I'll always select the same 3 drives, so why isn't the prior selection held as a start?
2) Isn't really good enough. Rather see the file and path being scanned at this time in information. Tried to suggest that as well, never appeared.
3) Define big? I've got 1GB spread over 3 drives. Most of it is on 1 drive and that is BACKUPS with Symantec System Restore 2013 files.
Ah, just finished... over 30 minutes. No problems (which I expected as I frequently scan with other programs). Doesn't show much other than 4,877,567 objects scanned. Not much help... would like to see more status of the scan, like TIME, and maybe a breakdown of what was scanned, file count, folder count, process count, etc.
Why does it CONTINUALLY show me that I need to update with 2/14 showing which I assume is the date (Feb. 2014?) of the last update or signature file date?
Don't like the way it closes... the upper RIGHT 'X' does NOT close it. Moves it to the SYSTRAY. Not what I expected. The REAL WAY to close it is to use the EXIT on the lower right in the HELP US GROW box!!! Change that to an OPTION on what the 'X' does, exit or minimize to the Systray. Those of 'us' who like to run it manually and not have it resident all the time would like this option I think?

I decided to DELETE the program. Using Advanced Uninstaller so it can scan for left-overs. Well the program uninstall told me some items were left and I could manually uninstall them... would have been NICE if it told me what and where? Advanced Uninstaller then searched and found a Registry entry and a file under USERS... nothing big. Later I checked SERVICES and your service was NOT stopped nor deleted!!!! Found the MAIN folder was still there where I installed it AND the service file there too. Deleted that whole folder and removed the service. BAD form of removal.
I really wonder if this program was Beta tested at all?
I'm done with it. Thank you.

Wish I'd checked GOTD earlier; I had the exact same experience with this program a few weeks ago from another giveaway site and swore I'd miss no opportunity to spread the word about how bad it is. Both Software Organizer and Comodo Program Manager errored in removing the traces! Finally used Revo, checked processes and hope that it's finally gone for good.

Sadly, one glance at this developer's web page is more than enough to drive me away: citing household names like Sony, IBM and Microsoft in some blatantly clumsy pretense to endorsement is as desperate as it gets. This developer -- which is up against some serious, Grade A commercial competition -- needs to think long and hard about who it is trying to persuade, and how, because if it can't as a producer establish trust with a prospective customer it sure as heck is never going to establish trust in what it produces. Thanks GOTD, but no thanks.

Sigrid.DE To be honest, Sigrid, that particular review site is one which rates so low itself as to be hardly worth the viewing. Too often it has provoked concern about its objectivity and too often, its research findings have been highly dubious (have a look at the Malwarebytes PRO rating, evidently tested on a circa 1992 286SX running Windows 3:1.) In fairness to today's developer, I don't actually think it's mentioned at all: SpyHunter is from Enigma Software, which I'm thinking is a different developer even if it, too, seems to like Florida.

I made no reference to today's offer, simply want to draw your attention to the makers, regardless where you live, are regarded amongst the top-rankers in protection software.
You are free to look at AV comparatives, etc etc.
Re Malwarebytes Pro, imho not enough protection for a computer as the only shield. I give it a run (free version) maybe twice a month. No find ever.
My main security suite does quarantine downloads rated as suspicious or definitely malware-injected software, also warn of dangerous sites (links).
Practically always either software where the programmer includes backdoors or other nuisances or Chinese and Russian (incl. Ukrainean) sites.
I'm afraid cybercrime will be taking the fun bit out of PCs more and more and trusting a nobody has ever heard of company is imho downright silly.

I use the free version of AVG in my XP Mode VM, where it works OK, including with GOTD offers. I haven't tried it in XP, but McAfee seems OK in Vista, so that's another brand to maybe check into.
The problem I've had with current security software in XP [when I could still run it normally & not in a VM] & Vista, is the security software scanning or monitoring when Windows was starting up. Many [most?] brands that worked fine in 7 <-> 10 [e.g. Bitdefender] could cause extremely long start up times with XP & Vista, or cause them to not start at all.
