Best answer:

Answer by noknojon
You have been infected with a rogue that will not just go away -
1/ Turn off System restore
2/ Restart in safe mode with networking
3/ Download Malwarebytes and Spybot (Type them into your Google search engine and it will give you the results)
4/ Update both programs prior to using them
5/ Run full scans and delete any infections you find
6/ When completed restart in normal mode and you should be OK
Some people prefer SUPERantispyware to Spybot but I use what works for me – Also install AVG as a “running” anti virus and update it every week

I am looking for a good solid antivirus / firewall package if possible, or noted separte ones if better.

I am running a server and looking to get some secutiry.

I looked up Kaspersky Anti Virus and ESET Anti Virus and they got good reviews? Are these any good?

Get the ESET NOD32! I heard people saying it is really good. Besides a little glitch once in a while. I might buy it on newegg once it is black friday.

Question by vmj51: Should I get an Antivirus with Spyware protection or get them separately?
I was wondering which is more effective.
I am planning to get ESET Smart Security 4 with Antivirus and Spyware Protection but I am also wondering if I can get Ad-Aware/Spybot/Malwarebytes.

Best answer:

Answer by drJackel
I would get an anti-virus program, but get separate ad/spyware programs like Malwarebytes, spybot etc.

In my experience, the ‘all in one’ programs never do as good a job as the program dedicated to a particular kind of malware.

1. For your Anti-Virus……(Always use only 1 A-V…You must NEVER use more than one anti-virus, Even an expired anti-virus can cause a major conflict… did I mention that you MUST uninstall any old anti-virus products?)

For your anti-virus needs, I would suggest Avast, the newist version 4.8. Avast now includes anti-virus, anti-spyware and anti-rootkit components. And all for the low low price of free. You can get it here:

http://www.avast.com/eng/avast_4_home.html

Avoid an anti-virus called AVG (free version). It is wildly popular with children and the computer illiterate but has poor virus detection rates.

———————————-

2. For your Anti-Adware and Anti-Spyware needs……………(use at least 1 anti-spyware, but 2 is OK). Do a scan with it on a regular basis.

Answer by classic
Your pc IS INFECTED WITH ADWARE. uSE THESE SCANS TO REMOVE IT, BOTH ARE FREE.

pybot – Search & Destroy detects and removes spyware, a relatively new kind of threat not yet covered by common anti-virus applications. Spyware silently tracks your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile for you that is transmitted without your knowledge to the compilers and sold to advertising companies. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you haven’t intentionally installed, if your browser crashes inexplicably, or if your home page has been “hijacked” (or changed without your knowledge), your computer is most probably infected with spyware. Even if you don’t see the symptoms, your computer may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging. Spybot-S&D is free, so there’s no harm giving it a try to see if something has invaded your computer.

Question by Esmy: What is the ideal number of Antivirus a laptop should have?
Hey everyone, that reads this.
My question is what is the ideal number of antivirus a laptop should have.

My laptop has Kaspersky Anti-Virus 2010 installed when I first got it. Best Buy had installed it.
And I just installed Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, mostly because I have this installed in my desktop and its really good.

Im just pretty much wondering if those two are ok.

Thanks.

Best answer:

Answer by RANGARAJAN S
I would prefer having 2 virus programs, reason is that even if one of them is not able to detect the virus the other would certainly detect it.

Hope I have answered your question.

Try this…. right click the desktop and in the menu click Display Properties, then click the tab Desktop, then click Customize desktop, then click the Web tab, and uncheck what ever is there.

Or go to control panel to add/remove programs and see if its listed then, remove it

good luck
