Clean viruses quickly
It always happens to me, and probably you too - A friend, or family member calls you over to look at their computer. Good luck for you they have no virus protection, and their computer is screaming signs that it is infected with a virus. I know there are a lot of free anti-virus solutions out there, but I always like to start with a free utility from McAfee called stinger Download this baby and let it rip. It even works on systems that are seriously in trouble because of a virus. Now I admit that it does not always clean the virus in question. But once you identify it, you can always find a free clean tool for any virus at Symantec. Just do a search in google:
If I wanted to clean the 'SoBig' virus, then just search for:
Symantec clean tool sobig
I almost always get the clean tool from Symantec on the first hit, and they usually work better than most of the antivirus products themselves, because these clean tools were specifically engineered to clean the virus.
So go forth and be the computer hero you were ment to be - and fix that system without spending a dime.
