Taking action to prevent malware infections is essential, as your computer will otherwise quickly become unusable. You should have antivirus software installed (and have it set to automatically update) and have a firewall set-up. Unfortunately though, even with these precautionary measures in place, your computer can still become infected.
Just deciding to leave the malware on your computer should not be considered an option. As well as significantly slowing it down, you will also have to deal with frequent error messages and will need to constantly restart it due to it freezing up. Then there is a major security issue too, as all of your documents and personal information will be accessible to third parties.
Deleting, and then reinstalling, everything on your hard disk will solve the problem, but that is hardly convenient. Even then, if even one of your essential personal documents that you save on a CD or USB before deleting your hard disk was infected, then, when you copy it back on to your newly cleaned hard disk, the malware infection will spread again.
Enlisting the help of a professional is the only solution that is guaranteed to work. The people who provide antivirus and spyware removal services can clean your computer of all types of malware without having to delete any of your programs or documents. They do this through a combination of manual detective work and specialist software.
As a result of their vast experience of dealing with malware, they know precisely where to look for it. Having found it, they then clean the infected files that normal antivirus software is unable to. Even infected system files are no problem for them as they have fresh copies of them which they can use to replace your infected ones.
It does not take antivirus and spyware removal services very long to remove all malware from your computer, with a day or two being the normal time frame. Most also offer a guarantee that no payment is necessary unless they are able to completely solve the problem. So, if you want a quick, stress free solution to your malware problem, then try an antivirus and spyware removal service.
