This is really awesome. Anything in the works for Windows 2003/2000 or 64-bit versions?

Hi Xidica,
Yes, definetely, future versions will be compatible with Windows 2003 and Vista. 64-bit is also a natural progression so we will have to support it. Glad you like the tool.

Unfortunately, while I love where it's going, I can't use it at the place where I work(very large ISP in Texas).

Windows 2000, 2003, and UNIX are about all we deploy. Furthermore almost all of our machines are also multiprocessor/core.

I can't wait until I can do some further testing on and with it. Keep up the good work guys!

Great!! Have been checking it out.

Only suggestion would be to add a report feature. The user would need to be able to post/email or attach to a post a copy of the report.

Terrific !!!!! Only suggestion I have for improvement would be to add a report generation feature in later versions. The user will need to be able to post/email or attach the report to a post.

I see an amazing product here, well done! I cannot use it yet due to HT and coreDuo processors but I will wait for the sign. Hopefully soon! I did read in the FAQ`s a mention of a comprenhesive manual. Where does one find this manual?
Thankx

I found Helios because of a rash of pc's I've been seeing which have all had rootkits on them, that I found by booting from floppies and cd's and seeing things that weren't showing in windows, so I dug a bit and isolated them and finally began to see the problems... I just wish I would have had this sooner. I have cancer, I get run down sitting at computers for very long, and I know a lot of people who rely on me to keep their systems running.

I work on a lot of units for disabled and elderly, and they seem to be the bunch who get the worse of the hackers apps spread though their systems.

Helios sure saves a lot of tedious steps...


Nice job...

Now all I need is to get something to feed 1 hackers persistence back down to him and his ISP over there in Russia, I got him hacking me since the first rootkit flooded pc came to me last month, twice a day about 4 hours at a time, he hammers my network trying to get in, searching for several rootkits, and even though I have him fully banned he doesn't stop trying....
