It’s handy to have them all in one place when you have to clean a PC (most likely belonging to a family member or colleague)
Download these 5 and go to town…
- RKill by BleepingComputer (Kills known spyware processes)
- TDSKiller from Kaspersky (RootKit detector)
- Ad-Aware from LavaSoft (Spyware cleaner)
- The free version of AVG Antivirus from AVG (Free Anti-Virus)
- MalwareBytes (Another Spyware cleaner)
Use another computer and download these 5 utilities. Save them on a thumb drive. Boot the computer that’s having problems. I would NOT connect it to a network or the internet yet.
Run the RKILL utility first. Then install and run each of the other utilities as they are. If you have to reboot for some reason, run RKILL again before you start running the others after it boots up.
Connect the computer to the internet and update and rerun each of the applications again.
