Simsesys Antivirus

Simsesys Antivirus is a feature-rich and portable application developed to ensure your computer's security by getting rid of worms, Trojans and other e-threats. It comprises a user-friendly interface with intuitive elements, making it possible for less experienced users to figure out how to tinker with it.

As installation is not a requirement, you can save the program files in any directory on the HDD and run the executable immediately. Otherwise, you can move Simsesys Antivirus to a USB flash disk or similar removable device, in order to protect any workstation from viruses.

What's worth mentioning is that, in lack of an installer, no new entries are added to the Windows Registry, thus the risk of system errors is not increased. Plus, files are not left behind on the hard disk after removal.

At initialization, the antivirus performs a quick scan on the processes and modules, desktop, folders startup, services, Registry startup and recent files execution, thus covering all supported modules for e-threat checkups.

Starting a scan job requires you to select the directories to include. Aside from a custom task, there is also the possibility to authorize a quick or deep scan, based on the program's preset parameters. There are plenty of settings to ease the process. You can scan for new and unknown viruses, the system locations, or within compressed files.

Scan details show the total scanned files, found threats, fixed and deleted items, along with hidden files. These infected objects can be either deleted or send to quarantine. Plus, you can view a list of files that have not yet received any user action.

Simsesys Antivirus packs other interesting security options as well. For example, you can view a list of all currently running processes and terminate or freeze the selected ones, check out the current processor activity and memory usage along with other system information (e.g. average physical memoty, pagefile), and lock the autorun.inf file in your local or removable disks.

But you may also manage the applications which automatically run at startup to increase Windows boot, stop active services, view a list of viruses registered by the user manually (i.e. whitelist), perform Windows Registry tweaks (e.g. show user name) and manage the quarantine.

The app certainly comes equipped with many useful features to please the entire audience. It has a good response time, finishes a scan job in reasonable time and uses a low-to-moderate quantity of CPU and RAM. No error dialogs have been shown in our tests, and Simsesys Antivirus did not hang or crash.
