Experienced computer users usually have an understanding of what is going on in the background of their computer system. This includes the processes and files that are running on the computer which makes identification of unknown files easier. But even those users have a hard time keeping up with all the processes and dll files that are loaded.
Automated software like Process Explorer, Autoruns but also SpyDLL Remover aid the user in analysing and protecting the computer system from malicious software.
The filename of a process, dynamic link library or generic executable file can hint at problems but it does not have to be thanks to rootkits and spyware injection which can turn harmless files into spyware spreading time bombs.
SpyDLL Remover is a portable software program that concentrates on the running processes and especially the active dll files that are linked to them. It scans and analyzes all the dlls and displays the result of the analysis in a color coded table sorted by threat level.
Dll files that have passed the scan are not displayed in the program’s interface, only dangerous, suspicious and those that need further analysis are displayed.
The detected files can then be processed by the user. The spyware remover supports removing the dll, killing the process and removing all which will remove both the processes and dlls.
The software program suggests to research dlls online that need further analysis. This can be done by selecting a dll in the interface and clicking on the Check Online button.
This opens up information about the dll at the Process Library website. The website is a vast resource for file related information. We did experience some “not found” messages on the other hand when trying to check some of the dlls running on our computer system.
The only option in this case is to perform a manual research in a search engine.
Reports about the findings of the application can be exported as html files to the local computer system for further analysis and archiving.
SpyDLL Remover is a solid security software for the Windows operating system that combines a fast scan with good results. Its portability makes it an ideal candidate for a user’s repair CD or USB stick.
The software can be downloaded from the developer’s homepage over at Rootkit Analytics (via Rarst)

Been a while since I found something you hadn’t posted about. :)
btw you can set in settings which threat level to display. I think earlier version had only displayed threats and skipped rest by default, upgraded in place for review so don’t know current settings.
