I am infected how to protect themselves

Contact
  • Think you're infected:
  • This is due to a slowdown of your computer.
  • Your anti virus keeps repeating alerts.
  • If you think you are infected you must know what type of virus it is.
  • Is the software side (eg pop up)?
  • Do you have multiple alerts
  • Is this a warning not serious (eg cookie alert)?
  • What not to do:
  • install another anti virus: you lose time.
  • Formatting the hard drive: to do as a last resort.
  • Delete files: especially when we do not know where.
  • Restore the system: this does not remove the virus.
  • What to do:
  • Make an effort of memory to remind you if you went on the internet, what file you downloaded ...
  • If you know the infected file you can delete it in safe mode.
