The best Malware removal tool that I have ever worked with is Super Antispyware. Is your computer starting to bog down, do you have pop up windows that don't make sense, is your computer asking you for credit card information so you can purchase virus 'protection'? If so, then give this tool a spin! Usually you can run this as a normal application in Windows. However, if your system is really jacked up, then you may need to boot into safe mode and run it from there. Getting to safe mode is easy, just press 'F8' while your Windows machine boots up and it will let you select which mode to boot into. Safe mode just loads the bare essentials needed to run the system, thus avoiding loading Malware that can take control of the environment. Another method that I have used is to physically take the infected hard drive out of a computer and hook it up to another PC. Then I can run Super Antispyware on that computer while accessing the connected secondary drive. No matter how you decide to run it, more often than not it will get the job done.
The interface for the program is smooth, it detects most infections, and the scans run fairly efficiently. Not too sure what else you could ask for out of a FREE Malware detection program. Below, I am running a scan on an externally attached infected hard drive.
As you can see, the computer had quite a few problems with it. Well... if you browse a lot of porn, illegally download music, and click on every email link that comes your way; this can happen to you! Super Antispyware isn't the end all for every situation, but it sure can help if you are in a pinch. Head to their web-site to check it out!
