How can i get a virus removed for free?
i have an hp computer and it has both spyware and adware..i would take it somewhere but we don’t have the money to..does anyone know a website that can do it for free? i’ve tried looking, but everyone of them has a catch where you do end up having to buy it..thanks for your help!
I have a HP Laptop, it has Windows Vista, its about a year old and its in great condition. I want to make sure my laptop stays this ways so I have been looking around for a good Anti-Virus software to prevent any type of virus, spyware, malware, etc. from damaging my laptop. I do not have a lot of experience or knowledge when it comes to the difference between Spyware, Malware, virus, and all the other stuff that we need to protect our computers and laptops from, so I am hoping that someone would help me choose whats best for me at this point.
What are the top 2 Anti-Virus programs that I can look at? Do they all protect from the same issues? Do they all protect from Malware or Spyware and all the other dangerous things that can damage my laptop?
I would appreciate as much help on choosing the right anti-virus software for my HP Laptop, money is not really an issue but if there is a software that doesn’t cost so much and it does the same job I will look at that as well.
Thanks for your help fellow Yahoo’ers
I have a virus, but no money to pay for a state-of-the-art removal system. I’ve downloaded NoAdware, but that isn’t good enough. Are there any FREE downloadable spyware/adware removers that will get rid of my viruses?
Im really getting upset. My boyfriend is an idiot and got adware spyware and viruses on my computers from bad websites. I do not have the money to go buy spyware doctor or anything like that. Everytime a program says its free, it does the virus scan for free but to remove the infections it actually found it says I need to upgrade and buy the package. Any free programs or even trials that will actually remove some of the bad stuff? Thanks

Because I don’t want to waste my money every year just to buy Norton or Spyware stuffs. I’m looking for a free and can use forever without warrant amd I don’t want a trial version.
If you help me, I would really appreciate it! ^ ^
My computer was infected badly by 48 or more viruses, It said worms, spyware, adware, malware, ect and I could not get an add to buy virus security protection off of the screen. I am not very computer savvy nor have alot of money, and need my computer back as I am having to borrow a friends computer. What is the easiest way to clean off my computer. Do I neefd to buy a new hard drive? Can not afford the 100 to 150 staples wants to charge me to clear the virus. Please help me, simple instructions please. I still have the cds that came with my computer.
I dont have money to renew the subscription and now i intend to download the free avira antivirus software. Is it possible to do so? If yes, how to do it?
Ok the current laptop I’m using is 5 years old, the disk is full, and is running slowly. I tried getting rid of some things on my computer. Still slow. Checked for viruses. None. So you would think that my dad, a computer networker engineer, would say "Ok I’m going to get a new computer, because its old and its not like we are cutting back on money and stuff." Instead he keeps procrastinating and I’m getting tired of it because this is our only computer and I need it for school and surfing in general.
So my question is what is a good laptop I can buy (0-350) that is good for internet surfing in general? I’m thinking about the 0 Dell mini but I don’t know.
dont even say AVG that is not detecting it, niether is my windows Defender or zonealarm idk what to do. i had twister and that rocked but it expired. it looks like im goina have to just pay up the money to buy it b/c nothing else works
I have read questions regarding virus removal but I am posting my issue so I can give details and get the correct help. I had McAfee installed when this happened. My computer started getting strange error messages at start up such as Error loading c:\windows\system32\calc.dll the specified module could not be found. Also when I Google something then click on a link I get redirected to some other page that has nothing to do with what I clicked. Now when I shut the computer off and turn it back on everything on my desktop is gone except for the tray at the bottom which keeps showing a bubble telling me to open the security center and when I click that icon in the tray it proceeds to scan the pc, tells me I have 40 known threats and gives me the option to remove them or proceed unprotected when I click remove it shows me a screen where I have to pay. When I use my mcafee to scan the system it says there are no known threats. I also have been receiving popups for what claims to be a "make money with google" site and my popup blocker is on and I haven’t received a popup in years. Does any one have any idea what is going on and what I can do. Also I don’t hav the Windows XP disc because my pc had it already installed when I purchased it.
When I reboot the pc so I can start in safe mode I get a blue screen message whenever I chose safe mode. It says a problem has been detected and the computer is shutting down. The reason I came here to get help to do it on my own is because I’m not able to take it to someone to pay for it getting fixed. So I reeally appreciate evryones help.
I went to the help forums suggested by Sly_Old… and MrGrump and was not able to download the programs that I need to start the halp process because it says my security settings won’t allow me to download it. What could be causing that I have not changed any internet security settings and even when I check everythings the same as I left it. I don’t know what else to do I’m getting kinda discouraged.
the other day i downloaded zango and by the end of the day a message came up saying my laptop was under treat and it said i had like over 500 trojans on, when i tryed to fix it with the virus program it tryed to get to pay like £50.00 for the virus program. i used my free virus program i had, adaware, but with a full computer scan it came up with very few virus’s and only a few trojans. i then tryed to download some other free programs, i downloaded treatfire which with a full system scan said i had no more virus’s and then pc tools antivirus which came up with hardly any, also i tryed AVG but that cam up with very few to. again another program personal antivirus did a scan and found trojans within seconds and found many many trojans but i had to pay money to be able to get rid of them. and things keep coming up from personal antivirus saying theres another trojan or worm and vulnerability highly critical and trojans are being downloaded, and it keeps coming up all the time that different trojans and worms are coming in but if i press block it just tries to get me to buy the program, i can’t delete this prgram as when i go on uninstall the program it isn’t there. i don’t understand why the free ones are coming up with very little but the ones you have to pay for come up with tonnes, i don’t know whether this is just one big scam, but the virus things i use do keep coming up with trojan found and foxed from time to time so that shows there is some on here. i just don’t know what to do, please help as i fear im just going to lose the use in my laptop completely
i would be eternally grateful for any help, and my email is chrisjennings91@hotmail.co.uk
thankyou
My birthday is next month, and I am looking into purchasing a new laptop. I have narrowed it down to the two companies who can offer the best for the money: Sony and Apple. I know that both companies are fantastic in their success, but both the Vaio and Macbook have everything I need. The only thing about the Vaio is that it uses Microsoft’s Windows Vista, and I hate Microsoft. I would rather not have to worry about viruses or hacks, since Apple has great security. I have no idea! Please help me! Btw, I want a newish model (nothing old) and I love black and/or glossy products.
Earlier today, my laptop got a virus. It made it so that nothing worked, and an Antivirus program has appeared that promises to fix it after I buy the full version for a lot of money. Obviously this is a virus, but I can’t fix it! It won’t let me download anything that can stop it, as it blocks my internet. And in safemode, and even networking safemode, I can’t seem to get internet either. I currently have it shut down and am using my families main computer, but I would definitely like to use my laptop again.
Two things you should know: I tried to use a flashdrive to download an anti-virus program, but it wouldn’t install. It said there was an error and couldn’t continue.
Also, I have looked for the Antivirus 2008 or 2009 file in Program Files, but it isn’t there.
I have tried all the methods that people have given for similar questions, and nothing is working. Please help! And, as I’m not very computer smart, I would appreciate it if you specified what modes I have to do things in (Safemode, normal, Networking Safemode, etc).
Thanks a lot!
Well, I’ve now manage to download malewarebytes, and after a scan in SafeMode the virus still exists. Also, I feel I should add that in Normal Mode. Task Manager also does not work.
The virus seems to call itself "SWP2009". It also calls itself Antivirus System Pro.
I don’t have a lot of money to buy antivirus software and I want to be protected. Is there a legitimate site where I can have PC checked and get free antivirus software?
i have the past version of kasperskey but the license has expired, and i don’t have the money to buy more software. so whats a good anti virus i can use that’s free and is as good as the leading brands?
I need it to be a free program because i do not have the money to pay for one.
I have about 23 threats on my computer right now and i need them off! its messing with my computer. i don’t have the money to actually buy flat out an anti virus software. but are there any good free anti virus software that will REMOVE these threats off of my computer?! i really need this stuff of. i can already see it doing things to my system. oh and what is a good one to "buy" once i have the money anyway?
So Norton came with my new computer and my trial is going to end in a few weeks. Is it worth buying it? Can I go to the store and buy a CD so i don’t have to continue to pay or something for years? I’m just trying to take care of my computer. Is there any free antivirus software that works well and that I can rely on that I can download off the internet (now I’m more conscious about downloading things if I’m not sure the sites legitimate)? I kind of always trusted AVG (free edition) but I’m not so sure anymore since my last computer died and the person that recommended it to me got a virus on the first computer and their current computer is slower than a turtle. I want to do what’s best for the computer so it can be among us for many year down the road yet money is tight. What do you think is the best thing to do?
When I get my taxes back, I am planning on purchasing a laptop. I am currently a student. I will be using the computer for recreational purposes as well though such as e-mail, itunes, photos, Internet, etc. I am looking for something convenient that works fast and is durable. Any input would be much appreciated. I also would like tips on the best security systems to protect my computer from viruses and such. **I do have a budget, but I would rather the input be based on the notion that money is no object. I would rather know the best computer, not the best computer under a certain dollar amount. Thank you for your help.
separate program to do what the operating system should do anyway. Who cares if Norton or whoever the heck makes anti-virus software loses money, we shouldn’t have to buy their product to be protected online. Plus, the anti-virus companies have a vested interest in keeping viruses out there, because, if viruses ever ceased, there goes their business model. Who knows, they could be responsible for some of the viruses that are plaguing our computers.
I read some negative reviews about iolo antivirus. I have avira free which is good, but I’d like to get my money’s worth with this iolo package deal.
I think my computer may have a virus and I don’t have the money to buy something. Is there such a freeware that actually works to get rid of viruses and such?
