Howdy,
Last night Windows Defender gave me an alert that it had detected the Skeeyah malware. I've actually had this malware before on another system, and Windows Defender was able to detect it but not able to remove it. In this case though, Defender seemed to immediately quarantine and remove the threat, and I've since run frequent deep scans with Defender, Microsoft Safety Scanner, and Malwarebytes and there doesn't seem to be anything on my system.
Can I be sure that this malware was actually removed despite it's infamously stubborn nature? Or am I better off once again reinstalling the OS?
Thankyou.
