F.C.E. 365 Autorun Scanner PRO

F.C.E. 365 Autorun Scanner PRO is a fast and approachable Windows utility that scans the source code of an INF file to find out if it contains malware. As complicated as it may sound, the tool is very simple to use, even by those with no kind of experience in virus scanners.

Software requirements and interface

The program's not wrapped in a setup kit, so you can save the downloaded files to any part of the hard disk and double-click the .exe to launch. Otherwise, you can copy it to a USB flash disk to run it on any PC to always have the autorun scanner with you when you're on the go and protect the integrity of your pen drive and computers.
It doesn't modify system registry settings or create files on the disk without permission. However, .NET Framework must be installed.
F.C.E. 365 Autorun Scanner PRO is packed in a clean and attractive interface with a flat look, displaying all options put at your disposal.

How it works

An .inf file can be located and added to the main window using the file browser or drag-and-drop support. It's scanned for malware agents by auto-loading it in a sandbox, which is a virtualized environment isolated from the rest of the computer as a security measure if the virus gets activated on file access.
The application is capable of scanning only one .inf file at a time. This is a rather speedy task that doesn't need assistance. Once it's over, it displays a message that lets you know if the file is infected or clean.
Additionally, the tool implements buttons for cleaning the report page to load a new .inf, as well as for opening a webpage to visit Microsoft and download Security Essentials to remove viruses and secure your machine.

Conclusion

To wrap it up, F.C.E. 365 Autorun Scanner PRO facilitates an intuitive, speedy and safe solution for checking autorun .inf files for malware. CPU and RAM usage was minimal in our tests.
