HitmanPro is a second-opinion scanner, designed to rescue your computer from malware (viruses, trojans, rootkits, etc.) that have infected your computer despite all the security measures you have taken (such as anti-virus software, firewalls, etc.).



HitmanPro 32bit is designed to work alongside existing security programs without any conflicts. It scans the computer quickly (less than 5 minutes) and does not slow down the computer (except for the few minutes it is scanning). The program does not need to be installed. It can be run straight from a USB flash drive, a CD/DVD, local or network-attached hard drive.

It can also run right alongside your current security software if you’re looking for another layer of security or a second opinion on how that security is performing.

The “Antivirus Only” Problem
Software updates and antivirus programs use malware signatures to detect threats. Each time new malware is discovered that is not consistent with previously known threats, a new signature must be created. This can take security vendors hours, days, or weeks, leaving you vulnerable for a period of time. It uses behavior-based techniques, looking at programs and files that operate like malware despite their innocent appearance. This allows it to find and remove the new and developing “zero-day” malware for which antivirus program has no current detection signature.

Protection Before Booting Up
Rootkits embed themselves deep in the operating system to hide from antivirus software. These rootkits can infect the master boot record, allowing them to start before the Windows operating system boots up. This gives the rootkit an advantage over built-in security and traditional antivirus programs.

Comprehensive Remediation
Today’s malware piggybacks on critical system files to manipulate the Windows operating system. The program removes these threats and replaces the infected Windows resources with safe, original versions. Re-infection attempts are blocked during remediation.

No Installation Needed
Because Hitman Pro for Windows requires no installation and has a download size of only 12 MB, you can begin cleaning your computer immediately. It can start directly from a computer as well as a USB flash drive, CD/DVD, or a remote storage device. This is incredibly useful in infection situations where malware prevents the installation of security software. It automatically updates so you always have the latest, up-to-date version.

System Requirements
  • Windows 7 or higher
  • 512 MB of RAM
  • 500 MB of available hard disk
  • Internet connection (for product activation and updates)
PROS
  • Advanced scanning technology that can detect and remove even the most stubborn viruses and malware.
  • Cloud-assisted scanning for identifying new threats quickly.
  • Real-time protection keeps your computer safe at all times.
  • Behavior-based scanning detects malware based on how it behaves.
  • Ransomware protection that prevents ransomware from encrypting your files.
CONS
  • It is not a free antivirus software.
  • Some users may find it to be more expensive than other antivirus software on the market.
  • The interface can be overwhelming for some users, especially those who are not familiar with antivirus software.
Conclusion

Overall, HitmanPro 32bit is a powerful antivirus software that provides advanced scanning technology, real-time protection, and ransomware protection. While it may not be the most affordable option on the market, it's definitely worth considering if you're looking for an antivirus solution that provides advanced features and reliable protection. If you're not sure if HitmanPro is right for you, you can try it out for free with the 30-day trial and see how it performs on your computer.
