How to Add Dr Web’s CureIT to a UBCD4WIN Disc?

aquascapeusa emailed me a question yesterday regarding Dr. Web’s cureIT and UBCD4WIN integration.

Hi,

Thanks again.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and the YouTube videos.

You briefly touched on adding a plug in (Dr. Webb Cure It) to UBCD4WIN on your follow up to Windows Defender.  This was the video where you talked about removing the rootkit with Cure It.  Near the end of the video you touched on what’s needed to add Cure It as a plug in.  A video on how this is done would be greatly appreciated.  Yes, I’ve looked at the forums:  UBCD4WIN, Bart’s PE, and pages of Google searches and it really hasn’t helped.

In your video, you began talking about how to add the Cure It as a plug in.  I think something may have been left out – you said specify a folder for Dr. Web, how the exe was named, that it was 23 mb, and double click.  After that the rest of the process is a mystery.  I’m sure it’s transparent once you have done it (much like building your first UBCD4WIN).  And yes, I realize there is no one solution to adding plug ins.

I actually do NOT use any kind of plugin. I simply download the latest CureIT to a folder on my desktop called drweb. When I go to build my UBCD image I select the drweb folder as the custom directory. The randomly named .exe inside the folder is burned into the root of the eventual UBCD.

To use CureIT once you’re booted into the UBCD environment simply browse to the root of the disc and double click on the CureIT executable. This will start Dr. Web and allow you to scan anything you choose.

Hope that helps and check out the screen shot below.
