What it is

Dr.Web CureIt! is a Windows utility for scanning and curing malware on infected workstations. It is suited to on-demand checks rather than ongoing protection: the free version supports one-time scans, and the program does not provide real-time virus protection. A download includes current virus definitions, but there is no automatic update feature, so home users need to download it again for a current scan. The free version cannot select particular scan objects or use command-line parameters. Dr.Web CureIt! Pro adds selective scanning of files, folders, drives, virtual drives, network resources, and individual processes, plus command-line use in scripts and scheduled or automated IT systems. Pro also includes quarantine management with export, import, and cleaning. During free scans, the utility sends scanning statistics and system information to Doctor Web; the company says it does not transmit personal information that reveals identity. Sending statistics is optional in the paid version. The free plan is free for one-time scanning; the Pro plan is listed for five or ten days, with no price listed.
