You can run a scan of all currently running processes by selecting File > Scan Running Processes. When this scan is carried out an Alert screen is shown for each running process detected, showing whatever information can be taken from the file.
If the file is detected as Malware, the name of the Malware will be displayed. Clicking on the Details will open the Malware Reference Database and provide details on the Malware, if any are available.
The following options are then made available to you:
Allow this process to continue running
No action will be taken on the running process and the scan will continue.
Terminate this running process
Trojan Remover will attempt to terminate the running process. If successful, a message will be displayed. If Trojan Remover is unable to terminate the running process, a warning message will be displayed. The scan of Running Processes will then continue.
Terminate this running process and rename the program file
Trojan Remover will attempt to terminate the running process. Next, the file will be disabled from re-loading by being renamed (the last letter of the file extension is changed to a "$"). If Trojan Remover is unable to immediately rename the file, once the scan of Running Processes has been completed it will offer to restart your system so that the file can be renamed during the restart process. Details of any rename operation are written to the logfile.
Click on the appropriate radio button to select the required option. Click on the OK button to accept the currently indicated option and continue with the scan. Clicking the Stop Scan button will stop the remainder of the scan and no action will be taken on the running process.
CAUTION: terminating a running process can lead to system instability. You should only terminate a running process that is confirmed as Malware by Trojan Remover, or on the direct instructions of Simply Super Software support staff.
