OSHI Unhooker is a computer application that finds and removes hooks. It is distributed under freeware licence.
Overview[edit]
OSHI Unhooker compares executable image in computer's memory and on disk to find other application hooks which potentially can be used by malware and allows used to remove selected hooks (i.e. overwrite it with the original bytes from disk).[2] OSHI unhooker claimed to be effective against Google hijack and other search redirects[3]
OSHI Unhooker has no real-time protection so if hook was set again during run-time or restart it will not be prevented unless scan and remove are done again.
Although OSHI Unhooker supports 64-bit Windows systems it is unable to clear kernel hooks on those OS due to Patchguard
