FreeFixer is a general purpose removal tool that will assist you when deleting potentially unwanted software, such as rootkits, adware, trojans, spyware and viruses. FreeFixer will scan locations where unwanted software has a known record of appearing or leaving traces. The scan locations include your homepage settings, the HOSTS file, the processes running on your computer, the programs that start when you reboot your machine, your browser plug-ins, etc. FreeFixer will also scan for programs that are trying to hide. FreeFixer doesn't know which the unwanted files and settings are, so the scan result will most likely contain many items you want to keep and perhaps a few that you prefer to delete. It's up to you to decide, please be careful! If you delete a legitimate file you may damage your machine. To help you decide if anything should be deleted you can find information at FreeFixer's web site for the items in the scan result. For example, you can see what other FreeFixer users chose to do in the same situation.
