HijackThis opens you a possibility to find and fix nasty entries on your computer easier. Therefore it will scan special parts in the registry and on your harddisk and compare them with the default settings. If there is some abnormality detected on your computer HijackThis will save them into a logfile. In order to find out what entries are nasty and what are installed by the user, you need some background information.
A HijackThis logfile is not so easy to analyze. Even for an advanced computer user. Previously I’ve shared with you a few websites that is able to help you identify which startup program is good or bad but it’s still a tedious job because you have to analyze line by line. Today I am going to share with you 5 ways to automatically analyze HijackThis! log file. All you need to do is just paste your complete logfile into the textbox, wait for a few seconds and the report will give get recommendations based on that analysis.
Do take note that the results and recommendation generated by these hijackthis log analyzers are not 100% accurate and is to be used for reference purposes only. An automatic analysis should NEVER substitute an expert’s analysis.
1. HijackThis.DE Logfile Analyzer
You can either paste the log file to the text box or upload the log file from your computer to HijackThis.DE Logfile analyzer. This is one of the best automated HijackThis log file analyzer because the report is easy to read and it shows visitors rating. Instead of having the long analysis, you can opt for short analysis at the end of the report. Short analysis will only display the entries that it advice you to remove.

2. HiJackThis! Log Auto Analyzer V2
Everything is color coded to help you determine which category each item falls under. It uses Tony Kleins BHO DB + our its additions to find to help you figure out which items in your log are OK and which ones are bad! To display more information about the entry, just move your mouse over the line. This is also one of my favorite.

3. Help2Go Detective
Help2Go Detective is able to detect 11504 malware, including the Peper and CoolWebSearch trojans. It will only let you know the malicious, suspicious and suggestions. The safe ones won’t be displayed.

4. Prevx HijackThis Log Analyzer
Prevx HijackThis Log Analyzer is the worst among all. It only scans the filenames and path. I’ve tried analyzing a few log files from computers that is infected by spywares but it couldn’t determine anything bad in the HijackThis Log. Maybe this analyzer is fake, but I’ll include the link if you’d like to check it out.

5. HijackReader v1.03 Beta
The final one is a free tool (not website). HijackReader automatically searches Pacman’s startup list as well as Tony Klein’s Browser Helper Object (BHO) list. After scanning all entries from the HijackThis log that you pasted, it will create a HTML report file.

You can use all 5 methods for better accuracy to determine if an entry is good or bad. Again, I just want to make it clear that the 4 websites and 1 tool is to provide only an analysis on the log file created by HijackThis. If you’re looking for the HijackThis program, you can get it from the link.
