Get ready for a clean computer!
HitmanPro is the expert's choice for clearing a computer of malware, PUAs, and tracking codes.
HitmanPro digs deep to rid your computer of any lingering infections. Quick, specialized scanning, with easy removal, gets your computer back to a pre-infected state in no time. It can also run right alongside your current security software if you’re looking for another layer of security, or a second opinion on how that security is performing.
The “Antivirus Only” Problem
Software updates and antivirus programs use malware signatures to detect threats. Each time new malware is discovered that is not consistent with previously known threats, a new signature must be created. This can take security vendors hours, days, or weeks, leaving you vulnerable for a period of time.
HitmanPro uses behavior-based techniques, looking at programs and files that operate like malware despite their innocent appearance. This allows it to find and remove the new and developing “zero-day” malware for which antivirus software has no current detection signature.
Protection Before Booting Up
Rootkits embed themselves deep in the operating system to hide from antivirus software. These rootkits can infect the master boot record, allowing them to start before the Windows operating system boots up. This gives the rootkit an advantage over built-in security and traditional antivirus programs.
Our proprietary technology collects hard disk driver information from clean computers and stores a representation of this information in the cloud. When HitmanPro detects a hook on the hard disk driver, it consults the cloud on how to work around it.
This allows HitmanPro to bypass the rootkit in the boot record and examine the actual infected areas to begin cleanup and remediation efforts. All of this happens in the background, not requiring any additional user interaction, giving HitmanPro a distinct advantage over standard antivirus programs or a completely manual removal process.
Comprehensive Remediation
Today’s malware piggybacks on critical system files to manipulate the Windows operating system. HitmanPro removes these threats and replaces the infected Windows resources with safe, original versions. Re-infection attempts are blocked during remediation.
No Installation Needed
Because HitmanPro requires no installation and has a download size of only 12 MB, you can begin cleaning your computer immediately. It can start directly from a computer as well as a USB flash drive, CD/DVD, or a remote storage device. This is incredibly useful in infection situations where malware prevents the installation of security software. HitmanPro automatically updates so you always have the latest, up-to-date version.

A homicidal cycling and running fanatic known for his meticulous nature in tracking his victims has been undone by location data from his Garmin GPS watch.
Police in Merseyside, in northwest England, announced that a jury last week found Mark Fellows, 38, guilty of two gangland murders: that of “career criminal” John Kinsella last year and gang member Paul Massey in 2015. Fellows was sentenced to life in prison without parole.
Kinsella was gunned down on 5 May 2018 by a masked hitman on a bicycle who was wearing a high-visibility vest with yellow markings and black tape that CCTV cameras easily picked up.

Steven Boyle, 36, also found guilty in the killing of Kinsella, gave testimony against Fellows and acted as his spotter in the slaying, according to the Liverpool Echo. Boyle received a sentence of 33 years to life.
GPS watch
As the Liverpool Echo reported in December, during a search of Fellows’ home following Kinsella’s killing, police had seized a Garmin Forerunner 10 GPS watch. A prosecutor pointed out that the seized watch matched one Fellows had been wearing in photos taken during a road race – the Bupa Great Manchester Run – on 10 May 2015.
Investigators had taken the watch to Professor James Last, an expert in satellite-based radio navigation, to see whether the gadget had ever been to the area near Massey’s home.
It had. Professor Last testified that the Garmin had been near the victim’s home on 29 April 2015: almost two months before he was gunned down with a submachine gun. Prosecutors said that the trip was Fellows’s reconnaissance mission.
The watch mapped out Fellows’s journey and his escape route: a 35-minute journey from Fellows’s home to a church where he had lain in wait for Kinsella to take a walk with his pregnant girlfriend, then Fellows’s return path across a field towards woods and a railway line.

The Garmin also provided useful evidence regarding its wearer’s speed. Professor Last told the court that the Garmin wearer initially traveled around 12mph, suggesting that he was on a bike.
Professor Last said that the Garmin wearer slowed down to about 3mph on the grassland area, consistent with walking. Besides the Garmin GPS data, Professor Last also examined a TomTom Start satellite navigation system that police found in a car, and that prosecutors say was strongly associated with Fellows.
The TomTom data – the “Tomtology report” – showed that it often set off from an area near Fellows’s home and visited two locations that the prosecutor said were of interest in the investigation: one close to the home of a man with a van that prosecutors said Fellows used, and another area in which a mobile phone tied to Fellows was used, as the Liverpool Echo reports.
Given that CCTV repeatedly caught footage of Fellows on a bike, clad in the luminous yellow markings and covered with the black tape of his high-visibility jacket, police had already suspected that they knew who killed Kinsella.
Kinsella’s killing had commonalities with Massey’s murder. But it was the Garmin data that tied the two together, the Echo reports: the location data provided “key evidence” in the Massey murder, said the local paper.
Other device-based convictions
Other convictions based on location data have included the pivotal Carpenter v. United States, which concerned a Radio Shack robbery and the privacy of the phone location data that got the robber convicted. In June 2018, the Supreme Court ruled it unlawful for law enforcement and federal agencies to access cellphone location records without a warrant.

The legal arguments in Carpenter have gone on to inform subsequent decisions, including one from last week in which a judge ruled that in the US, the Feds can’t force you to unlock your phone with biometrics, including your finger, iris or face.
