The free anti-malware program started a pre-scan as soon as we launched it and then gave us the option to accept or reject the license agreement before proceeding. Pre-scanning helps to stop any suspicious processes. Buttons for selecting desired actions are on the left part of the screen. Hovering over a button displays details about what it does, which is especially ideal for new users. Below the buttons are check boxes for enabling or disabling MBR scan, anti-rootkit and verification of fake items. The main part of the screen is divided into two with the upper portion displaying status and lower one displaying areas to be scanned. Once we selected an action, the program ran another scan after completing the action for verification.
