That Dam Virus…

It happens to all over us eventually your just surfing the net or opening an email and bing theirs the pop up, you just got a CTD or computer-transmitted diseases.  Will first you should have been using protection there are lots of good antivirus you can you to keep your pc clean and safe, but most of the time when it gets to this point you can do little to stop it with most antivirus programs.  I am going to walk you through removing some of the most stubborn viruses/ malware out there the way that normally works for me.  Follow the steps a they pertain to you.
1.       Dose the pc turn on and boot in to windows even if only for a few moments until the popup comes out, if yes skip to next step.  If you unlucky to get one of the bad ones that stops windows start-up don’t give up hope you may not need to reformat just yet.
       a.       1st try booting in to safe mode with networking if that works download two programs the 1st one    is RKILL, next you need malwarebytes by far in my opinion one of if not the best antivirus/spyware/malware programs.
       b.      Run are RKILL it will kill the processes of any active miscellaneous software, after it is done it will show you a notepad file with details of what was done. Next install MALWAREBYTES this is strait forward.
       c.       So now you have malwarebytes installed, if it did not do the update automatically you will need to run it yourself by opening the program and going to the update tab and hit the check for update button.
       d.      Once up to date got the scanner tab and run a quick scan this the quick scan will check the most common areas that malicious software hides, when scan is completed click show results check all files in they are not checked off then click remove selected.  It may ask you to restart; do it and don’t boot in to safe mode this time.  Go to #6 and continue
2.         So you have logged in your pc, download two programs the 1st one is RKILL, next you need malwarebytes by far in my opinion one of if not the best antivirus/spyware/malware programs.
3.       Run are RKILL it will kill the processes of any active miscellaneous software, after it is done it will show you a notepad file with details of what was done. Next install MALWAREBYTES this is strait forward.
4.       So now you have malwarebytes installed, if it did not do the update automatically you will need to run it yourself by opening the program and going to the update tab and hit the check for update button.
5.       Once up to date got the scanner tab and run a quick scan this the quick scan will check the most common areas that malicious software hides, when scan is completed click show results check all files in they are not checked off then click remove selected.  It may ask you to restart, do it.
6.       After restart don’t run RKILL this time because you want to cache the files that it killed off
7.       Run quick scan until no malicious files are found and you should be good.

This normally works for me if you need any help just message me, and good luck.
