Computer Virus Removal

Does your computer have a virus infection? Don’t feel bad, it happens to everyone eventually. You open an infected email or perhaps browse to an infected web site. There are many ways for your computer, or rather, Windows 10, to become infected.

There are usually some common indicators that your PC is in need of computer virus removal.

The annoying pop-up or other unexpected onscreen ads are a typical sign of a computer virus infection. Not only are they annoying, other malware might lurk inside Windows 10 poised to cause more mayhem.

Your web browser becomes sluggish and your home page has changed or your browser is redirected to websites you did not intend to go to are all warnings of a malicious computer malware infection.

If programs open and close without your input, if your computer freezes, locks up or shuts down for no apparent reason, or if you see strange error messages, then a malware removal is in order.

While it is common for Windows 10 to occasionally start up slow because of an update, if your PC is taking longer than usual to start up and if there is no screen indicating you should wait, or if programs are taking too long to open, then your computer might need a malicious rootkit removed.

Computer background activity is a lesser recognized red flag because computers regularly perform tasks in the background. However, receiving messages about a lack of hard drive space or hearing your hard drive making thrashing sounds or spinning constantly, even though you’re not using your computer nor have any programs running, could mean the malware has taken control of your computer.  Another similar problem is when you’re connection to the internet is is very active even when you are not using it, a virus may be busy sending your private information across the web.

There are some important facts you need to know before anyone performs a virus removal.

1. Every Virus removal is an attempt. There are some malware infections that are so deeply intertwined into the Windows operating system that it becomes more expensive to remove the malware than to reload the Windows operating System.
2. No person or software can absolutely guarantee that every trace of malware has been eliminated unless the operating system is reinstalled and even then, in very rare cases, it’s possible firmware is infected .
3. Reloading the Windows operating system may also require reinstalling all of your programs, your favorite websites and your data. If the computer is part of a networked system, this process will be even more involved.

The best medicine is prevention. We use and recommend Avast Premium suite because it has proven to be effective at preventing ransomware, Trojans, spyware, rootkits, viruses, worms and other types of malware. Malware infections tend to enter the computer operating system via email or web browser. Avast excels at protecting your computer’s most vulnerable vectors of infection with Mail shield and Web Browser shield defense systems.
