Handling Viruses with PC Support Provider

Way back into earlier years of computer, when mostly used was DOS command to operating system, viruses on these days has some ways not to be detected. Specifically the “Stealth” virus, which it is capable of hiding itself from the computer users, and most likely to the anti-virus. Through intercepting to the system calls which are responsible for the file reading. They can successfully give you fake information which is becoming legitimate codes for the computer system. Anti-viruses were useless then.

Evolution of the computers comes. With the presence of viruses, Technical Computer Supports don’t stop discovering solutions to this problem. They come up with the discovery of Windows. They replaced the use of DOS command to Windows. Bur of course with the computer evolution of computers comes with the evolution of the virus too. Some viruses still have the capability of hiding themselves even with the presence of Windows. They can efficiently hide themselves and can work with the Windows this virus are called “rootkits”

Technical Computer Support used some tricky actions to overcome the rootkits and to save computers from menace. Rootkit mainly attacked the system, install it there and hide itself. The work of anti-virus then was to detect the virus, but before they can detect the virus, they are already moving actively to the software, and after they knew it, the rootkits already intercepted with the programs used to detect them. Using anti-virus then doesn’t guarantee a complete protection of computers, especially if rootkits virus was the one intercepted with you software.

Rootkit Revealer was invented. But cannot totally eradicate the rootkit, can only detect that something is hiding within your system. This program was designed to destroy the rootkit, but fails to do so. This was called Microsoft Rootkit Revealer. It does gives a little help, further management with the Technical Computer Support is necessary. UnHackme or other anti viruses with rootkit detection was advice by the Technical Support Group to be installing in computer because it does help. UnHackMe are designed compatible with other anti-virus and also designed not to fight with the rootkits so it can work nicely with another anti-virus. Sort of back-up to each other so system can be of less exposure to viruses. UnHackMe should be installed before anything else, serves as a guard to the system and it watches the system process, taking all controls to the system before others. It can maliciously fools the virus, can detect and destroy rootkits attempts. That’s what Technical Computer Support was suggesting during those days.

By blocking the rootkits before it gets loaded to the memory and passing the control to the anti-virus, the attempts of the viruses becomes easier to detect and remove any further intrusion. UnHackMe are capable of removing rootkits who tries to intrude the software. A nice work-up with Technical Support and installation of UnHackMe and other anti-virus was the remedy before in order to prevent viruses from further intrusion, for experts can’t find a way to directly fight the rootkits before.

Automatic Manual Virus and Spyware Removal

Does your computer seem to be functioning slowly? The system is locking up and stops responding from time to time? Does it restart on its own and then fail to run normally? How about unusual error message or you are unable access your disk drives? These symptoms all add up to one thing, your computer has been infected with a virus. Here are two ways in which you can try removing viruses and spyware infections from your computer.

A virus is a type of malicious software that is designed to wreak havoc on your computer system. Spyware, on the other hand, pretends to be useful software but is actually designed to get bits and pieces of information from a user’s computer. Did you know that the experts at Sophos Company said that about 40,000 computer viruses are now known to exist? The experts even claim that about 200 new computer viruses are released into the Internet each month.

Automatic Removal

If all else fails and your computer is infected, do not panic. There are things that can be done in order to remove the infestation from your computer. Your anti virus or anti spyware program like MacAfee, Avast, Norton can also serve as automatic virus removal tools, all you need to do is run the anti virus complete PC scan. More often than not with infections, your computer will still start up okay but will perform very slowly and will have a hard time running the anti virus or anti spyware scan. To get around this, start your computer on safe mode and run the virus or spyware scan from there. It should automatically detect the virus or spyware and it will give you an option to do nothing, delete or quarantine.

Manual Removal

There are situations where anti virus or anti spyware will not do the trick of removing the infection automatically. This is where manual virus and spyware removal comes in. This is normally the last resort for computer users that did not do any file backups and want to avoid reformatting that will erase everything on the hard drive. Depending upon the severity of the infection, the approach can greatly differ.

If the computer can still at least start up to the operating system, the tricky part is moving inside since the system will be sluggish with multiple layers of pop up advertisement or error messages. What we need to do is log on to safe mode. Logging into safe mode will do two things – disable programs that we do not need for the troubleshooting like error message pop ups and also disabling some of the infection that slows down the computer. Once the computer is working fast enough, you can download process explorer and autoruns. This program will detect programs running on your computer that you do not need, just be careful using it since it also can mess up your computer even more. After that you can restart your computer and you should be all set.
