Cyber hijackers are working day and night to make some new malware which are hard to detect and are escaped by the usual detection procedure. So here I am going to discuss different ways to detect the presence of malware in your system.

1. Microsoft process Explorer
so first of all we may have to look at the Microsoft process Explorer to determine what processes are running on a computer. These Explorer also describe the functions of these processes. So with this you can create a baseline information that which processes are essential for your system and which processes should be running on your system and which should not be.
2. HijackeThis by trend Micro’s
this is again another process Explorer by using which you can set a baseline for your system. It is very essential to setup a baseline when you feel that your system is free of any malware and other harmful scripts.
3. Kaspersky’s GetSystemInfo
Kaspersky also offer GetSystemInfo a process Explorer or scanner and provide a very good way to scan what is going on your computer and what should not be.
4. Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer
MBSA is a vulnerability scanner which can detect insecure confederation in your system and it can also direct Microsoft products which have missing security updates.
5. Secunia inspection scanners
They tool is much similar to the one we have just discussed above. But in addition it can also scan the many different third-party applications and give this tool and upperhand when compared to the Microsoft Baseline Security analyser.
6. The choice of good anti-virus
Avast and Comodo on windows machine are seems to be better tools to detect malware in addition to the viruses.
7. Microsoft malicious software removal tool
the software have different features like it can automate the scanning and removal process for different malware.
