Get Rid Of A Virus!

Posted by Scott at 11:28 AM
Even though it might seem like you can never get rid of the virus that you have, a virus can always be removed. It might not be the easiest way to get rid of it, but you can make it go away. I you do not know if you have a virus, follow these signs here "5 Signs You Have A Computer Virus."

The first thing you need to do is have virus protection software. Their are many free versions of virus protection that work just as good as the ones that you pay for. Here is a list of highly recommended FREE virus software, choose one along with #4:

1. AVG Anti Virus
2. Anti-Vir
3. Bit Defender Free
4. Super Anti-Spyware

Now that you have some Anti-Virus protection, update the software(usually there is and update tab to click) and do a full system scan with your Internet connection disconnected!

Having the Internet disconnected helps you out tremendously because that virus is being told what to do by the hacker over your Internet connection. If there is no Internet connection the virus does not get the command to steal any of your files.

After you have done a full system scan and deleted or put into quarantine whatever the program found, clean out your temporary Internet files by doing a disk cleanup. If you do not know how to do a disk cleanup look at my first post "Make Your Computer Faster".

That should just about clean-up your PC from the little viruses , check back for more information on how to get rid of the viruses that lock up your whole computer!

If you have any trouble getting rid of a virus, post a comment on what you have done, and I will do my best to help you remove it.
