Virus, Trojan or Worm Check and Removal:

  • Viruses (Virii) are a well know cause of problems, yet surprisingly many people use dated, outdated or no anti-virus software.
  • Online Anti-Virus scan are available here:
  • Download Anti-virus software. Our favourite pieces of free software are listed below.
  • Install the software
  • If software does not install, then try installing it in safemode with network support (To get updates)
  • If possible try and run software without rebooting your system as a virus infection may disable it during reboot
  • Update software, until no more updates are available.
  • Now run a full system scan (This may take sometime, possibly hours)
  • If viruses are found Quarantine or delete them.
  • If a file can't be deleted you will have to boot to safemode and then run another scan from there.
  • If you still cannot delete infection try searching google for a fix, stating "Virus name" and "Removal"
  • Its worth noting that many company's release specific tools to remove viruses, try searching google once again for "Virus name" and "Removal tool"
