UtilTool Antivirus is a security application made to ensure round-the-clock protection against viruses and spyware. It features a real-time safeguard, multiple scanning modes and several scan settings that can be tweaked.

The program starts the real-time protection module right after setup. Before doing so, however, it is recommended to remove any installed antivirus applications, since the two are likely to cause Windows stability issues.

Wrapped in a clean and intuitive interface that allows even less experienced users to study the statistics overview, UtilTool Antivirus offers to run a scan as soon as possible, in order to establish the current security status.

The computer can be verified for malware infiltrations in quick, full or custom mode. The first one is the fastest because it only looks into critical areas of the PC where malicious agents are known to hide. The full mode take into account all hard drives with their files and folders, while custom mode gives users the possibility to specify the exact locations they want scrutinized.

It is possible to block items and unblock them later, manage a list of allowed files, examine log details, disable the real-time guard, schedule tasks, enable gaming mode to prevent notifications from popping up when working with full-screen apps, deactivate the behavioral analysis mode, and so on.

There were no stability issues in our testing because the tool did not hang, crash or display error notifications. It did not put a strain on PC performance either. On the other hand, we were not impressed with the malware detection ratio. Nevertheless, you are welcomed to test UtilTool Antivirus for yourself to see if it suits your preferences.
