Use Spyware Sweeper to remove Malawares

This highly regarded antispyware tool, while not free like the first two, is still a welcome addition to any spyware-fighter’s toolbox, and can often remove malware that the others miss.

So, armed with proper antivirus and antispyware software, there are four things you should do to protect your computer from malware:
  1. Place a router between your computer and your Internet connection.
  2. Scan your system for viruses regularly, and don’t rely entirely on your antivirus program’s auto-protect feature (see the next section). Run a full system scan at least every two weeks.
  3. Scan your system for spyware regularly, at least once or twice a month. Do it more often if you download and install a lot of software.
  4. Use your head! See the previous section for ways that malware spreads,and the next section for some of the things you can do to reduce yourexposure to viruses, spyware, adware, and other malware.
