Outside of Hitman Pro (old versions at least) and Herd Protect (you can't use it anymore) there aren't really alternatives to Combofix. Not really.

Most recent Virus Total Scan of Combofix.

Combofix is considered a "Potentially Unwanted Application" or a "Hacktool" by most anti-malware scanners. If you notice, larger companies like Malwarebytes and Norton have already flagged the tool as being safe, because it is, under the direction of a professional.

Combofix and indeed, a lot of security software is going to show in antivirus scans. It is considered a Potentially unwanted application. It needs behave certain ways in order to remove embedded malware. ComboFix should never be used without the direction of a professional.

Unless you are using this under supervision (e.g. from forums like Bleeping Computer or MalwareBytes), do not use this software.

DO NOT download Combofix from combofix.org or combofixdowload.com !!! These are scams !

The only 2 official URLs for ComboFix are BleepingComputer.com and ForoSpyware.com

I am a computer tech and let me tell you a secret. This is one of the main tools in our arsenal for malware removal. It does a fantastic job. Like the disclaimer says, use with caution.
