Review of computer virus removal::My PC Has a Virus How Do I Get Rid of It








The               latest               computer               virus               scare               has               computer               users               in               a               tizzy,               sending               them               hurriedly               rushing               to               anti-virus               websites               in               preparation               for               battle.

I               include               myself               in               that               dizzy,               worrying               horde.

The               computer               virus,               called               the               Conficker               Worm,               has               been               infecting               Windows-based               computers               (Mac               and               Linux               systems               are               safe)               across               the               globe.

Though               the               virus               has               been               around               for               quite               a               while               terrorizing               computer               experts,               supposedly,               it               will               receive               "new               instructions,"               naturally,               on               April               1st.
               Having               only               recently               done               battle               with               a               particularly               nasty               virus               that               masquerades               as               the               Anti-Virus               360               program,               I               feel               that               same               tension               rising,               especially               after               reading               about               just               how               tricky               the               Conficker               virus               really               is.
               The               trouble               with               Conficker               is               that               there               aren't               really               any               warnings               indicating               that               your               computer               has               been               infected.

Up               to               the               Minute               Computer               Consultant               John               Quain               told               CBS               News               that               those               who               have               been               infected               don't               experience               a               slow               computer               or               pop-up               virus               warnings               from               anti-virus               software.

This               isn't               because               the               anti-virus               is               failing,               but               because               the               virus               can               stop               your               computer's               anti-virus               updates.

If               your               anti-virus               software's               "automatic               updates"               have               been               turned               off,               you               may               be               infected.
               Another               way               to               tell               if               you're               infected               is               to               check               your               web               browser.

The               worm               has               the               ability               to               block               certain               websites               that               could               be               your               saving               grace,               such               as               Microsoft.com,               Symantec.com               and               McAfee.com.

If               you               can't               get               on               these               websites,               it's               likely               you've               been               infected.

If               you               are               a               Vista               user,               you               won't               be               able               to               access               the               Defender               program.
               If               you               are               infected,               Quain               urges               users               not               to               despair.

The               easiest               thing               to               do               is               to               visit               a               Microsoft-run               website               to               run               a               scan               with               free               malware               remover.

One               such               website               is               www.OneCare.Live.com.

Quain               also               suggests               shutting               off               the               "Autoplay"               function.

"Autoplay"               occurs               when               a               program               automatically               starts               and               installs               on               your               computer               when               you               put               in               a               disc.

Turning               it               off               will               stop               the               spread               of               the               virus.

He               also               encourages               taking               advantage               of               virus               protection               software               for               further               precaution.
               Though               everyone               should               definitely               prepare               for               the               virus,               according               to               experts,               they               don't               think               April               1st               will               bring               about               Doomsday               for               computer               users.

According               to               Eric               Larkin               at               PC               World,               a               lot               of               the               April               Fool's               Day               threat               is               just               speculation,               much               like               the               greatly               hyped               Y2K               phenomenon.

Security               researcher               at               SecureWorks               Joe               Stewart               says               that               there               won't               be               an               outbreak               on               the               1st,               but               most               likely,               the               worm               will               start               using               a               new               trick               that               will               allow               it               to               better               evade               defenses.
               If               you               are               already               infected               with               Conficker,               it               will               try               to               update               itself               on               the               1st               and               could               do               some               damage,               but               Stewart               believes               that               this               is               unlikely.

But               for               those               paranoid               users               like               myself,               Stewart               provided               some               alternate               links               for               virus               removal.
               Microsoft               Malicious               Software               Removal               Tool
               F-Secure               removal               utility
               McAfee's               removal               tool
               While               I               understand               that               the               April               Fool's               Day               Conficker               update               may               just               be               hype,               I'm               not               going               to               take               any               chances.
               Eric               Larkin,               April               Fool's               Conficker               Threat               is               Likely               Hype,               PC               World
               The               Conficker               Worm,               CBS               News
