I was wondering if it would be possible to install a variety of Virus/malware/spyware removal, Reg cleaner(s), defragger(s), etc on to a USB pen for a kind of handy “diagnosis and treatment” tool for suffering or crippled systems? I’m thinking: Anti-vir Anti-malware Anti-spyware Reg cleaner Defragger Junk files cleaner Process explorer Primarily for XP systems but maybe for Vista and 7 systems too. Any one know of any kind of "all in one" software or a project similar that I could use? It would help me no end when fixing friends/family PC’s that are infested with god knows what.
PC Repair system from daily cup of tech forms the basis of my usb toolkit, no longer available from the author but can be downloaded here. For anti virus/malware I've added Clamwin portable and Superantispyware. Portableapps.com is a good place to find other usb portable software.
I have considered this in the past but in the end of the day i would rather just have the most up to date version of each program instead.
The first thing is to prevent. So, an antivirus with real time scan and a firewall who block connections in and out is the basic and often,enough.I use avg antivirus and zonealarm firewall. Usually I do not use cleaners, defragment tools. Why to make your life harder? I use a software to make backup of C:\ and if I have a problem I restore the image and that's it.here you can find Easeus Todo Backup who is good and have free version.
