Computer Virus Remove
So you got your computer infected and you want to know to remove a computer virus. Generally speaking, a virus is a computer program that’s auto multiplying and infecting the computer without the user’s will. Many times these programs produce a lot of damage on the host computer by deleting folders, wrecking programs or even hard drive formatting. Other times they can auto multiply in order to fill the computer’s hardware and slowing the other programs, or can display various pictures or messages.
Most of the times, the viruses are attaching to some files, called host files or infected files, and when those files are ran by the computer user, the virus is automatically ran also and can use that opportunity to infect other files. Technically, a computer virus can be considered to be a different category type rather than a worm or trojan. So, only those programs that move from a computer exclusively by sending it along with the infected file are considered viruses while the worms can reach other computers without being a part of an infected file.
A trojan is a computer program that appears to meet an useful function, but in reality it executes hidden harmful commands. So a trojan can be a worm and a virus at the same time.
Today, along with the internet spreading, email services, chat messengers and file sharing programs, it’s pretty hard to distinguish viruses from worms and some use the term “virus” to relate to any harmful program that’s auto multiplying. So in order to keep your files protected from all these kinds of viruses, worms or trojans, you are advised to use a good antivirus on your computer.
If you already have a virus or worm on your computer, don’t worry, go to your nearest IT shop and buy a CD with a licensed antivirus. Install it on your computer and look for it’s “search and destroy” feature. An antivirus searches your computer for all kind of malware. Today are billions of types of viruses and not all of the antiviruses have the full virus database in order to remove your computer’s viruses.
Some of the greatest antiviruses are:
- BitDefender Antivirus 2010 – starting price: $24.95
- Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 – starting price: $39.95
- Panda Antivirus Pro 2010 – starting price $49.99
- Norton Antivirus with Antispyware 2010 – starting price: $39.99
- McAfee VirusScan Plus 2010 – starting price: $39.99
- CA Anti-Virus 2010 – starting price: $49.99
- Trend Micro Antivirus plus AntiSpyware 2010 – starting price: $39.95
If you scanned your computer files with an antivirus and still have problems, you should contact a PC service in order to get your hard drive formatted (saving your files first on other hard drive). After that please use an antivirus on your computer to avoid in the future similar problems. Don’t think that the cheaper antivirus is the lowest, actually BitDefender Antivirus managed to stay on top of others for many years, keeping the best quality for the best price so that you don’t need to empty your credit card in order to keep your computer safe.
