Title: Tips for Spyware and Virus Removal


1
  • Five Tips for Spyware and Virus Removal from Your
    Business Machines

2
Regardless of many preventive steps, from written
internet user policies to automated scans and
gateway protections, spyware, malware and virus
threats sneak through multilayered defenses to
our PCs, laptops and workstations. Even though we
understand the seriousness of these threats, many
of us still arent willing to invest in
anti-spyware software. As for solution, some of
us simply wipe out systems and reinstallation the
Windows, while others just give up letting the
bad guys to win. Here are some safety measures
that we find most effective for virus removal
from your business machines. Isolate the
Drive You probably dont know, but many root kit
and Trojan threats are masters of disguise that
hide from the operating system as soon as your
Windows starts. Even some best antivirus and
antispyware tools struggle to remove such
infections. Pull the hard disk from the offending
system and fix it to the dedicated test machine,
and run multiple spyware and virus removal scans
against the slave drive.
3
Remove Temp. Files While the drive is still
slaved, browse to all users temporary files.
These types of files are typically found within
the C\Documents and Settings\Username\Local
Settings\Temp directory within Windows XP or the
C\Users\Username\App Data\Local\Temp folder
within Windows Vista. Delete everything within
the temporary folders. Return the Drive and
Repeat the Scan Process First run a complete
antivirus scan and then execute two full
antispyware scans with recently updated
anti-spyware applications. Return the hard disc
to the system and run the same scan once
more. Test the System Now boot your system,
open the web browser and delete all offline files
and cookies. Then, go to the Internet Explorer
Connection settings to confirm that a malicious
program didnt change a system default proxy and
LAN connection settings. Visit some random
websites and look for any redirected web
searches, hijacked home pages, popup windows and
other issues.

Check for Remaining Infections Use utilities
such as Microsoft's Process Explorer, Trend
Micro's HijackThis and Windows' native Microsoft
System Configuration Utility to locate remaining
offending process. After these 5 steps, if a
system still proves corrupt or unusable, then
its time for you to take help from IT
consultants and their virus removal services. We
