Hallo, sorry for the question but i have tested the "HDDSCan V2.08" an when i start the Program, it connecting to my DNS Server via UDP (why?). When i start the Program with sysinternals tools (Filemon / Regmon) i see that the Program looks at the Norton Internet Security (2007) Program Directories, Files and Services Entries in the Registry from Windows XP SP2. Is this normal??

When i start the Program on a Computer with XP SP2 and Kaspersky there is nothing like this behavior. It makes no connection via UDP (Kaspersky don't ask me) an it dosn't seek any Registry Entries from Kaspersky?

That means that the Software from the HDDGuru-Site is an Trojan?!

Yes, but why makes an HDD Tool a UDP Connection and scans for Security Suites? I have send this file to Kaspersky, F-Secure and Microsoft and look out for an answer. Also i ask an German Website to check their Toolset "PC Repair Set" especially HDDScan in this toolset.
Is this not the forum from the programmer of this tool?? Can he don't declare why his tool make this things!

Here are some lines from the Regmon Log:

OpenKey HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\MSVCR71.dll NOT FOUND
OpenKey HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\ASOEHOOK.DLL NOT FOUND
OpenKey HKLM\Software\Symantec\InstalledApps SUCCESS Access: 0x20019
QueryValue HKLM\Software\Symantec\InstalledApps\Common Client SUCCESS "C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Symantec Shared\"
QueryValue HKLM\Software\Symantec\InstalledApps\Common Client SUCCESS "C:\Programme\Gemeinsame Dateien\Symantec Shared\"

OpenKey HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\ccL40.dll NOT FOUND
OpenKey HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Image File Execution Options\MSCTF.dll NOT FOUND

A external Programm can start over this entries when you declare it as debugger in the
"Image File Execution Options" Section.

Common guys there is not a trojan
The reason why it is trying to reach DNS server is e-mail component (I used Indy 9 component for Delphi)
As you know HDDscan could send e-mails with results and this is why I used Indy component
Probably that network activity is Indy component initializing

Hello Doomer, this says Kaspersky also :
//
Hello, yes it's clean. It has functions for send mail and it uses with -mail key in command line.
Best regards, Sxxxxx Dyyyyy

Apology for this suspicion, but I am surprised over the Registry looks for the Symantec entries.
For the winsock entries i have a similar behavior with a Programm in Delphi with Indy Components when it's opens a connection.
But why the program doesn't open the connection only on request?

O.K., therefore again apology for this suspicion.

It supposed to
I think it's just component start up init not opening connection to send e-mails
