Dr.Web CureIt! full changelog

Doctor Web has updated its free utility Dr.Web CureIt! to introduce a unique feature—the ability to scan files and folders that virus makers add to antivirus exclusions lists. This is a major step in tackling more sophisticated threats that seek to disable information security software to ensure they operate unhindered in the system.
The new feature was inspired by the success of Dr.Web FixIt!—the product employed by Doctor Web's experts to investigate information security incidents and eliminate complex infections. Many malicious programs attempt to add their own executable files to the antivirus exclusions list as soon as they get into a system. By doing so, they deceive the antivirus and make it ignore malicious objects, which allows attackers to steal data, encrypt files or use the device as a botnet node.
How the new feature works:
When the scan is started, Dr.Web CureIt! will automatically examine the exclusions lists of Microsoft Defender or any other antivirus found in the system.
Then all files and folders found on these lists are thoroughly scanned by the Dr.Web antivirus engine.
If a malicious object is detected among the exclusions, Dr.Web CureIt! notifies the user and removes the threat.
This feature can be of vital importance for ordinary users who may be unaware that their security software has been compromised. Now, even if a trojan is hiding in plain sight, Dr.Web CureIt! will be able to expose and neutralize it.
