Yes, thanks, I meant to post this morning about the new build.
Love that Changelog. Only one change and it's a big one.
Certainly the only program I've heard of that's able to detect and remove the infamous new 64-bit Alureon rootkit.

Actually hitman pro is not the only or the first to detect and remove the infamous new 64-bit Alureon rootkit. Microsoft was one of the first if im correct, as u can see on this blog.

I see. Good thing I didn't claim it was the only or the first.

Hitman Pro 3.5.6 Build 113 released for 32bit and 64bit.

Changelog

* Fixed a compatibility problem with rollback and encryption software (thanks Avinash)


This release fixes the Master Boot Record (MBR) false positive when using certain rollback or encryption software like Comodo Time Machine or Sophos SafeGuard.

Hitman Pro tries to detect a rootkit on the MBR by reading sector 0 through both Windows API and direct disk access (RAW). When the read MBR's do not match a message is displayed that the Master Boot Record is compromised/infected. Rollback software behaves like a rootkit and serves a different MBR to Windows and hence there is a problem since the MBR's do not match.

Build 113 fixes this incompatibility.
