If regular computer maintenance is not in your routine, your machine will end up working slower and slower, due to the buildup of temporary data and malware infections. Of course, no one expects you to hunt down these items yourself. This is what software applications like WinZip Malware Protector are for. This piece of software can locate and remove malware threats from your computer without too much hassle.

The software is free to try, with some restrictions. It can be installed in just a few seconds, on any modern Windows platform and it supports both 32 and 64-bit operating systems. The hardware requirements are modest and you don't need to sacrifice too many resources to run the application.

The user interface consists of several tabs, on which you can start a scanning process, specify where to scan, manage a quarantine and perform some miscellaneous maintenance and security tasks. The controls are well organized and easy to spot, so you shouldn't have any difficulties, regardless of what you intend to do.

When scanning for infections, you can opt for a quick, deep or custom scan. The quick scan doesn't take long to complete, but if you want more results, you should go for the deep scan, which is a bit lengthier. Also, if you want to scan in a specific location, like a folder on your hard drive, then the custom scan is the option you want.

Scan results are displayed in a list and you can view additional details about individual items on a separate window. Simply clicking the large Clean button, in the lower right corner of the window is sufficient to remove everything from your computer. Alternatively, if you think you still need something, then you can deselect one or more items in the list.

If you want to get rid harmful data from your computer, you can do it on the fly, with only a few click, with WinZip Malware Protector.

Pros

You can set the application to scan in specific parts of the system. You can also select individual scan results, if you don't want to remove them. The software works fast and it is easy to use.

Cons

You can't clean up anything unless you buy the software, so an accurate evaluation of the product is impossible.
