Monitor potential attacks from malicious software with RUbotted

A handy piece of software for the detection of 'botnets'

RUBotted

RUBotted monitors and removes potentially malicious software

This is a simple piece of software that looks for potential infection from malicious files that can take control of your computer, known as ‘bots'.

Downloading and installing RUBotted was simple and quick, and the software itself is unobtrusive and runs in the background, requiring very little attention.

The interface is simple, with a ‘Status' screen informing you of any ‘botnet malware' and a log, which records what the software has detected.

Aside from that, there is little to say about this software. It didn't slow down the performance of our computer and was easy to use.
