to remove malwiwaire, rootkits, rogues,those programs that make you buy the damn program pop ups that u cant get rid of. just outta curiousity if i get an infection. do i use malwairebytes?is it good to detect hidden files or do i need other programs. do i ever need to go to safe mode, or can ii do it in normal mode considering i can access the software in normal mode. do i need to download rkill from kasparsky site, and do i do that in normal or safe mode. also, is quick scan enough to get rid of the infecion, or is full scan the only way to go. i ask because its a long time to wait an hour without having a computer to use to wait for a full scan to finish.

i have read online that avast, m.s.e. dont detect and delete those things well.

Its not that easy, I wish it was...

I remove viruses/spyware in my shops every day.....

There are thousands of viruses/spyware and almost as many ways of removing them....

When people ask me what I use to remove them, I usually say "whats directly between my ears"

The better answer is to NEVER get them in the first place....

Be careful on the net and use Norton Internet Security 2013...I DO....

All the best Brett
