Hey Guys

So I get a lot of comments and emails from you guys about viruses that won’t go away.  The fact is, some of these viruses and trojans are NASTY, and they don’t want to go away at all.

Now, if you have a virus – and you haven’t followed my initial Virus Removal Steps, DO THAT FIRST!  It works most of the time.  Only if you can’t get rid of the problem using those steps should you continue with the rest of this post.

(Note: This area might change from time to time based upon different options and available fixes!)
Removing the PESKY Virus
Assuming you have already gone through the inital Virus Removal Steps, and you still can’t get rid of the virus – here is your prescribed Next Step:

  • Open up your browser and go to http://www.combofix.org/
  • Follow the directions at the bottom of the screen.
  • Make sure that you disable any virus and malware programs that may be running (check your system tray by your clock!)
  • If it asks you to install system recovery, do it.

It usually takes about 5-20 minutes to run depending on your pc.  Don’t worry, it’s easy to run!

In most cases, I have found that this cleans up most of the really pesky viruses that I encounter. 

If you have any questions, leave a comment!
