Hey all,

 

I used to use Process Explorer exclusively, but I now use Process Hacker.
It has a lot of features that Process Explorer doesn't have. One such
feature is the ability to highlight a process and have the executable sent
to VirusTotal..

 

Process Hacker - http://processhacker.sourceforge.net/

Yes, process explorer actually is one of those tools.  It shows processes
that have packed images in them.  Packed images are highlighted purple.
There are some cool features in process explorer.  Check out that link that
was posted earlier in the thread by Tim (
http://www.microsoft.com/emea/spotlight/sessionh.aspx?videoid=359 ).  The
video is an hour and twelve minutes which may seem long but its got some
really good information in it and Mark Russinovich (the author of these
tools) goes over some of the sysinternals tools he uses along with his
methodology for detecting and neutralizing malware (and even rootkit
detection).

Are any of the tools listed in this thread good for processes and services
that aren't playing by the rules and are attempting to hide themselves? They
seem like they are using all the Windows APIs that are used by task manager.

don't forget that you can change the output on some of those tools and dump
into a csv (i.e. psloglist).  you also can pipe the output into find or
findstr to look for specific items.  

You can create some great batch files to automate some tasks as well.

Another tool I like is streams.  You can use this to scan for alternate data
streams.  I found netcat on a box with this once.  On another note, has
anyone ever looked at any of the Windows Internals Books?  I am thinking
about buying the 4th (

Thanks for the link to the malware analysis video.  I started watching it
last night and what little I saw I liked.  Gonna finish it today at work.

For those who forget your USB drive of tools while on the job

Also if you like the tools - I came across this Malware Analysis video
from Mark Russinovich (author of the sysinternals suite) a couple of
years back. For those not familiar with the tools , its definitely
worth a watch.

My personal Fav tool/feature would be the dumping of strings from
volatile memory using process explorer

Here's the video
