Detecting and removing malware/spyware

[Bob]

If I suspect a computer has several malware/spyware
programs on it how do I identify them and remove them?

Thanks

Hi Bob
Download "Spybot search and destroy" or "lavasoft" Sorry I don't have the
url's to hand
But you can google for them

you can get both as a double check , Both are free

Remove spyware with Spybot Search & Destroy from www.security.kolla.de
and Ad-aware from www.lavasoftusa.com. Be sure to update these programs
before running them. It is best to run antivirus and spyware removal
tools in Safe Mode.

To deal with issues caused by any sort of "adware" and/or
"spyware," such as Gator, Comet Cursors, Xupiter, Bonzai Buddy, or
KaZaA, and their remnants, that you've deliberately (but without
understanding the consequences) installed, two products that are
quite effective (at finding and removing this type of scumware) are
Ad-Aware from www.lavasoft.de and SpyBot Search & Destroy from
http://security.kolla.de/. Both have free versions. It's even
possible to use SpyBot Search & Destroy to "immunize" your system
against most future intrusions. I use both and generally perform
manual scans every week or so to clean out cookies, etc.

You can have peace. Or you can have freedom. Don't ever count on
having both at once. -- RAH
