KnockKnock overview

KnockKnock shows you what's persistently installed on your Mac.

Malware installs itself persistently, to ensure it is automatically executed each time a computer is restarted. KnockKnock (UI) uncovers persistently installed software in order to generically reveal such malware. If the item is an executable binary, KnockKnock automatically queries VirusTotal with a hash of the binary in order to retrieve any information.

What’s new in version 3.0.1

  • Bug fixes (e.g. #34)
  • (minor) UI improvements

Won't run on Mac OS 10.13.6 even though it says it'll run on Mac OS 10.11 and higher. Launches and crashed immediately.

Actually this is a note to the developer, Patrick Wardel, since I did not find a way to contact you thru your app. After opening the zip file, I went to slide KnockKnock into my Applications folder in the HD. I got the OS notice that moving it there required an admin PW. However, I accidentally clicked "Cancel" instead. So I slid the program back to Applications and was ready with my PW... BUT I didn't need it this time. KnockKnock nestled itself among my other Apps without the Admin PW. I seriously believe you should look into why this happened. BTW, the scan found no problems. Thank you for your program.

Not working. When launched, I click the scan button and instead of running it opens to the developer's web page: objective-see.com so does not run at all. Tested on an OSX 10.8.5 mac as indicated it runs on
