My Automated Malware Removal Script is now fairly mature and includes an html readme with pictures to help you set it up, currently the following applications are used:
- CCleaner does not run with scanonly
- A-Squared
- Mcafee
- Panda (generates false positive with antivir, see readme.html file for details)
- Trend Micro (select viruses)
- ClamWin
It has a "scanonly" and "clean" mode, the former just automatically scans and reports, the other automatically scans, removes, and reports. I suggest doing a "scanonly" first, reviewing the logs that popup at the conclusion and either manually remove the infections are run "clean" once you are sure nothing critical will be removed.
Alternatively, I now have a
very early and experimental alpha quality application called SAAMAL that I wrote over Christmas. It features:
- Small executable (250K big) written entirely in c++ (so no .NET framework, no java to deal with, should work on any stock windows 2K or above machine)
- Simple menu driven command line interface
- Accepts command line arguments (including /scanonly and /clean, similar to the script, and /build (to automatically download / extract the applications)) to automate tasks
- Automatically downloads and extracts applications (has built in unzipper, so no need to have a compression utility or even to open a web browser), unzipping based on work by Lucian Wischik
- Integrated support for CrapCleaner, A-Squared, Panda, and Mcafee
- Automatically parses the result files of Panda, A-Squared, and Mcafee into a single easy to read test file at the conclusion of a batch run
- Ability to select which of the supported applications to run (or not run) during a batch run
- Ability to add your own custom applications to the batch run via the menu interface (and to download / extract them if you have an address), although it cannot parse the results files (would have to custom write that)
- Ability to change, delete, disable, enable, or add arguments to the supported applications or your own applications via the menu interface.
- Saves / remembers your settings for each individual applications and the custom ones that you add to the batch run, automatically resets to default if your settings files are deleted
- Does not change or modify the applications themselves
But, SAAMAL is nowhere near being mature or polished and it is "probably" very very buggy and could easily screw up your system or just flat out not work. PM me your email if you want me to send you the executable (let me know if you want the source code as well, the source code is a mess and I probably need to rewrite it) or you can reply to the thread
here if your email is the same as in your profile and you want a copy. But,
SAAMAL should NOT be used on any critical machines (stick to virtual machines).
