Supernovasky Posted July 23, 2010 ID:288899 Share Posted July 23, 2010 I noticed (a while back) that you guys request DDS logs in the initial post on the malware removal section. Why is this used over HJT? Is it simply more thorough and detailed to help understand the problem? Also why is that section of the forums still named hijackthis logs if they aren't really requested? I'm simply curious hah so I figured maybe I could expand my knowledge a little if I saw an answer to this. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted July 23, 2010 Root Admin ID:288900 Share Posted July 23, 2010 Malware has become much better at hiding and HJT has not kept up with the trend. Its a bit too difficult to just switch over forum names as it can affect a lot of things on the site and references on the Web. Almost all of the tools that are used still continue to use the basic structure format that HJT came out with many years ago. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Supernovasky Posted July 23, 2010 Author ID:288902 Share Posted July 23, 2010 That makes sense. I was just wondering about the section name as well because looking through peoples post there a lot tend to post a HJT this log and are immediately told to run DDS. But thanks AdvancedSetup for the info! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
