Anti-spyware

A simple way to remove Spyware

When it comes to spyware most people suffer through hours of scans and re-search and downloading special tools just to remove the spyware on their system. If you have ever had to remove spyware before then you know the feeling.

Not all spyware programs are the same. Often times a special tool is needed. For instance Virus Heat removal can be hard. This is a fake anti-virus client that is installed on your system normally through a fake video codec. Try as you might un-installing it can be hard. Many people go into their Add and Remove Programs option from the control panel and try to uninstall the software. While the program is often times un-installed the pop-ups continue and the Virus Heat program is often re-installed again.

So what is your simple remove spyware option?

If you were infected just a few days ago or even around a month ago you can do a system restore. Not everyone has this on and some have it set to only keep the system restore functions for a week or so but by default it’s keeps them until a certain percent of your hard drive is used. The system restore function is a great way to un-install software, including viruses and spyware. Pro’s use it all the time to help in the removal process. This is not the end all method but it will help to save you lots of time.

When using the system restore function you need to go back to a date when your computer did not have the spyware installed. You will not loose any documents but any software installed after the date selected will be removed including the virus software. It will also undo registry settings and that really helps you out as well. Once the system restore is complete you still need to run you anti-virus and anti-spyware software to clean up any left over traces. This time however your security software should be able to remove the traces because they should no longer be active. It is very important to do the scan right away because you most likely will get re-infected if you do not.

Having a good firewall and security software is a must. Free programs on the web do not do a good enough job. If this does not help you or if you’re just not up for the task you can always have a pro remove this for you right online. Online computer repair is a great way to have your computer fixed then and there without the high cost. View our Online Computer Repair site for more information.
