Hardware tools and software

You have to have good pry tools also. Spudgers are great and I use the iSesame tool more often than I thought I would. It is a really great pry tool that can be used in different scenarios.

I never saw the point in Tronscript, it takes for ever and half of the scripts are no good on systems beyond XP.

You've broken a few of them recently haven't you Wink

TronScript is basically the same as Combofix, they both take a long time to run, and it can break stuff. They are just last resort tools that you can run when you determine that the system needs to be Nuke & Paved (After backing up important data of course). Backing up data and reloading a system is much faster...

Fair enough.

I agree that backing up and reinstalling is pretty much the way to go, but just like anything in IT you'll have people telling you otherwise.

I try not to wipe the computer system unless I really have to because it inconveniences the customer too much. Also if the person has loads of programs, plugins, setting etc they will all be gone.

Of course, wiping should be the last resort, but honestly it's the least painful one.
