DeBank 1.0.0

DeBank is a simple portable tool that will quickly check your PC for the presence of the 5 most dangerous banking Trojan families: SpyEye, Zeus, CarBerp, Gozi and Patcher.

The program works by scanning the memory of all running processes, looking for chunks of code which belong to each malware variant. This means it's faster than a conventional hard drive scan, and should also be more accurate. (Conventional signature checks can fail if the malware is packed in a different way, but the underlying code remains the same.)

DeBank comes in the form of a Windows console tool, and is very easy to use. Just launch the program - running it as an administrator in Windows Vista or 7 (right-click, select "Run as administrator") - and watch. DeBank will keep you up-to-date on its progress, and either give you an all-clear when it's done, or name the suspect process if it's found something.

Please note, DeBank is a detection tool only: it will alert you to the presence of malware, but won't remove anything. If your system turns out to be infected then you'll need a more powerful package to clean up. Malwarebytes Anti-Malware is a stand-alone detector which should be able to help, or, if you need a full antivirus package, take a look at AVG Anti-Virus Free. And in the meantime, treat this PC as though everything you do on it is being passed to someone else: don't log in to any secure sites or enter any confidential information until you're sure the threat has been removed.

Banking trojans like SpyEye are some of the most dangerous (and common) malware variants around, but DeBank can often reveal their presence in just a couple of minutes. And so it's another tool you probably need to add to your portable security toolkit
