Computer users that are afraid their memory has been infected through malware, can now download a free
forensic tool.
Memoryze is an analysis tool that checks the physical memory of the Windows system and can do an extensive analysis :

of the memory while the computer is running. Admins can establish what is running after an incident occurred and save the
output to establish there was an actual performed.
t is a tool with a purpose and that is malware forensics:
“Memoryze is designed to catch the most sophisticated of threats. It analyzes physical memory and even parses the paging files – bypassing the operating system’s APIs. In the lab, we have shown that Memoryze can find memory resident-only shellcode, that does not exist on disk. If the attacker is there, Memoryze can pull the malicious code directly from memory, so our malware analysis team can begin the analysis.”
Thanks Damien but that doesn’t really answer my question.
For the average user, is it something that should be used instead of or, in conjunction with
the memory checker included in avast! ???
