Malware removal

[Spiezels]

Just used malware pc docter or something to check my comp, said i had like 5 high risk threats and a load of other minor ones. But you have to pay to get them removed.

Anyone know a good malware removal...free ones

I already have the yahoo anti apy toolbar thing, AVG and Zonealarms.

Spybot - Search & Destroy

gets my vote every time

I did a scan and it came up with like 30 all red ones so immunized them, does it delete or just immunize.

When i did the scan with that malware docter it said i had a few trojans will an AVG scan get these or spybot.

I dont have any problems on my pc but it said they were there.

 

[Spiezels]

another thing, with AVG it says i have a trojan in the vault which isnt healable.

What do i do with it, wipe it or just leave it there or find the folder its in.

Im confussssed. cheers

Depends what they are fella, some programs bombard you with hysterical warnings, Spybot doesn't tend to do that so if its thrown up a list of problems to fix and its fixed them all I wouldn't worry too much. If AVG can't heal a trojan then i'd bite the bullet and scrub the lot and start again (depending what it is, check the net) - pain in the arse I know but I don't take chances with any s**t like that, touch wood Firefox, Zone Alarm, AVG and Spybot have kept me free of problems.

Yeah i have all of those too hope so anyways.

It says i can get rid of the file its on and its in the vault so should be fine.

Hmmm. cheers bud.

You don't need to pay, when a scan has been completed, you will get details of the infections, including their locations in your pc, all you have to do is manually remove them.

Also try - Malwarebytes' anti-malware, spyware doctor and ewido online scanner.

I know the file with the trojan in so i can just get rid of the fucker then.

Nice one.
