No Problem. It's pretty easy to obliterate the virus in your computer by following the below instructions:

1) Download and Install Free Version of Avast -

http://www.avast.com/

2) Download Trial Version of Malwarebytes Anti-Malware and Install.

https://www.malwarebytes.org/

3) Some PUPs and harmful data could still bug you even though antivirus and antimalware softwares show positive results in full system scan. Download this .exe file and scan your system (no installation required)

I use the same tool that saved my computer where traditional antivirus betrayed me.

Scan your computer and get back to me.

will normal free antivirun able to remove that bitcoin mining malware ?
 


Say it's a 50-50 chance. That's why I want you to use all 3 together in your system.

Avast + Malwarebytes Antimalware = 80% Deduction and Removal Rate

When you include the Adware Removal Tool = 19% Deduction and Removal Rate.

In total, 99% protection :)
