Need help with this....??

Question

ok, my computer says i have a virus. And all these anti-spyware things pop up and scan my computer, but when it says to clean it it says i have to pay. Is there any free virus removers i can get on the internet?

thanks

Answer 1

Yes. There are many.

here, take your pick.

I have heard good thigs about Avast, and Avira. I can personally vouch for AVG, but I think version 8 is bloated.

Answer 2

Firstly, antivirus programs will NOT remove these as they are malicious codecs.

This works:

Malwarebytes Anti-Malware:

Download, install, update and select Quick Scan

Answer 3

Yes, there are. There are free antiviruses, free firewalls and free anti spyware. I recommend Avira AntiVir for your anti virus. Many people on here recommend Avast! and AVG and I've used them as well, but Avira AntiVir went above and beyond the others. For your anti spyware, I recommend SuperAntiSpyware. It is also a free program that I use as well, and I recommend it to everyone. It has worked wonders on my machine. I'll provide the links to download these programs in the source area beneath my post. Good luck!
