I’ve tried a AVG free and A Squared free but they don’t get rid of the ‘zlob’ virus. What are some cheap/FREE antivirus/anti-trojan software that are effective?(and I don’t mean "free scan" then you have to buy the software to get rid of infections..)… PLEASE help!!
Download and scan with Malwarebytes and/or SUPERAntiSpyware.
Malwarebytes and SUPERAntiSpyware are the best anti-spyware applications available (you can have more than one). Other free anti-spyware programs would be Spybot Search & Destroy, Adaware, AVG Anti-spyware (formally Ewido), A-squared, Spyware Terminator and SpywareBlaster.
If you do not have an updated anti-virus program always running, you need to get one. Install only one, but you can get AVG, Avast! or AntiVir for free.
Running virus removal programs in Safe Mode (tap F8 as the computer boots up and choose to boot to safe mode) can be more effective. The idea behind the Safe Mode is that the operating system would only load your essential programs and drivers to the memory and hence there is a “high” chance that the virus-infected file is on the drive but not loaded into memory.
I strongly recommend using Firefox as your primary Web browser, It is safer and beter than Internet Explorer. Get the add-on NoScript for Firefox to prevent click-jacking. The AdBlock Plus extension will allow you to surf virtually ad-free.
avast antivirus for antivirus, and super antispyware for antispyware, do scans with both
Avast or Avira free. Bit Defender, Kaspersky and, Nod32 all offer free trials of the full version software.
Avast home edition is totally free, and is a very good virus scanner. You can get it here:
http://www.avast.com/
You will need to register it so they can send you a code that is good for 14 months. If you don’t it expires after 60 days. After your 14 months is up, you can re-register and get another key, still totally free.
Avast does a better detection job than many pay-for virus scanners, and has excellent spyware detection built in.
Avira is a really good product, but its free edition has no spyware scanning.
AVG is garbage.
i use ad aware, but definately try spybot search and destroy.. it free for the FULL version
