What is the best antivirus program that will remove all the viruses on my computer?

Question

I used an antivirus xp 2008 trial and it said that it could remove about 3,000 viruses after it scanned it and when i tried other programs, they only say that they can remove like 100... so is there a program that will remove ALL my viruses??

Restart your PC in safe mode with networking

Download, install and run a full scan with Malwarebytes

Run a full scan with Micro Trend House Call

After the scans, restart the PC and update your anti-virus, remember to only have one anti-virus installed on your PC

Answer 3

Hello,

-Antivirus xp 2008 is a rogue antivirus program, that displays false information stating that you are infected, when your not infected, while not allowing you to remove anything unless you first purchase the software. It's from the makers of Power Antivirus 2009. It also displays fake alerts on your computer which is just another tactic to scare you into purchasing the program.

--Now the best Free Anti-Virus is--

Avast Home Edition- http://www.download.com/Avast-Home-Editi...

--The best Pay For Anti-Virus is--

Eset Nod32- http://www.download.com/ESET-NOD32-Antiv...

Next time check to see if the software you want download is on download.com, if it is, its safe.(As Antivirus xp 2008 is not)

-Also, Avoid a antiVirus called AVG, everyone only thinks its good because its widly popular, but it has bad detection rates.

GOOD LUCK ^_^

Answer 4

XP 2008 is rogue software full of viruses and trojans... to clean your PC use a combo of AVG Free, A-squared free edition and Spyware terminator then immunize your system with Spyware blaster and use Firefox instead of IE7
