BHODemon 1
W9x/Me/2000/NT/XP
Free
Location on CD: software/windows/browse/bhodemon/

BHODemon protects you from Browser Helper Objects, or BHOs, which are tiny hidden programs often installed without your knowledge. A BHO is a small program that runs automatically every time you start your Internet browser. Typical BHOs are put there by adware programs such as Go!Zilla that tracks which advertisements you see as you use the Web.

BHODemon resides in the System Tray and when you run it, it scans your Registry for BHOs, and presents any it finds in a list. By highlighting a BHO in this list and clicking the Details button, you can see information about the BHO and disable it if you want. BHOs are disabled by renaming the DLL that houses them, so it is easy to enable them again if you wish.

Does not require installation û simply copy the folder as above to your hard drive and run the application BHODemon.exe from there.
