The way to get rid of this virus is to basically perform an “uninstall” on the program. This can be done by basically getting rid of all the parts of the virus which are causing problems on your PC – which can be achieved by first stopping the program from running and then deleting all the parts of the virus by either manually removing them or using a reliable “anti-malware” tool to get rid of them for good. Which ever method you use, it’s vital you get rid of all the parts of the virus completely because it will have placed a large number of “backup” files onto your system which will work to load up the infection again if it’s not properly removed.

your computer for viruses and worms at least once every week should be considered a
necessary task depending on your habits as a user. The first thing you need to consider is how
much you browse the web. Don't think of this in terms of hours because you could spend all day
on a trusted site like Facebook.com and never get infected with malware. However there's no
saying where back-links lead, and a disguised URL or advertisement could help you fill out your

Magnitude of usage, and therefore of risk, should be measured in terms of the 'discovery
quotient', or the new places you visit on the web in a given time frame. Then you need to
calculate how many of these have you been prompted for by your browser or internet security
software. This result could put you in one of three categories for the kinds of internet users
there are. The first is users who generally stick to trusted or known sites, or at least those
recommended by trusted ones. These users will rarely face a crash, unless it's a targeted attack
or a botnet within the network.
If you are the kind of home PC user who has antivirus and internet security enabled the year
round, probably with antivirus installation from a certified technical support online company,
and discover new websites every so often, you've minimalistic chances of blue screen errors
or disk drive corruption. If you are the third kind of user, low protection and greater risk threat,
then consider getting an online tech support team to scan your computer and install an updated
antivirus right away.
So how did your computer really get infected? Here are the causes. Remember, to remove the
virus or malware, you may need help depending on the level of infection.
Running programs with default settings is the prevalent reason for malware infection. Default
settings are easy for spyware to locate, and these can be easily taken advantage of. For
example the Flashback malware that has infected Mac OSX, was downloaded by most users
because it looked like a Flash update. Similarly, browsing the web with javascript enabled or
using Adobe Acrobat or Reader with default settings can make your PC vulnerable.
Opening email or following email links without firewall and email protection installed is the most
common reason for successful phishing scams. Spam filters and internet security is needed
even for the most cautious users and people who store financial information in their mailboxes.
Forums and chat rooms are other places where your email could be harvested and later
spammed using spyware. Remedially clear browser history, cache, and cookies.
Even the most well protected home users fall prey to socially engineered web attacks.
Behavioral protection is the best way to ensure that no bundled malware executes a malicious
attempt on your data. Online antivirus support can help your computer perform better with
customized settings, run faster with tune up utilities, and defend against any corruption or
accidental deletion with backup and recovery support.
