Different Ways to Tell If Your Infected

According to most PC magazines 80% of all computers have spyware on them.It's not all bad news, Many of these programs are very inisent.  That means the vast majority of these programs really do nothing to harm your computer.  In fact many of these programs such as games come installed on PCs right from the store.

You still need to make sure you are not infected.  If you have a free anti-spyware client chances are you are infected.  Free scanners do little to pre-vent the most common forms of spyware.  Read a bit more about some popular threats at on this Virtumonde Removal site or this Remove Vundo site.  Both sites provide some good detail on spyware and how it affects your computer.

You can still scan your PC for free using many free trial programs out there.  I’m not talking about using a junk client.  Check out the sites highlighted above for a free trial of Spyware Doctor.This is the main tool we use to repair peoples commputers when they are infected with Spyware.This bad boy keeps winning awards because it is one of the best out there.Like many other programs out there you can get a free 30 day trial to see if it's for you.  You really only need one day because the first scan will let you know if you have infections or not.  If not then don’t worry about it.  If you are infected with spyware then you need to take action.

Another good resource is this vundo
site.  It’s a blog about viruses and spyware and worth a look.  Remember do not purchase any spyware software or virus software without getting some feedback on it.  The other thing to remember is no free client on the market provides enough protection.  Most of these programs do not give you protection.  It’s only after you have been infected that they kick in and by then it’s often too late.
