Detect windows virus

You can use 'Safe mode with networking' (press F8 when computer start few times in 1 second interval, and menu with this option will come). Going to ESET (Nod32) Online Scanner:

Scan computer with recover-cleaning option on.
Some viruses are hard to clean, and one of option is using live CD linux (Mint) and share partitions, and than connect with network cable and clean with antivirus from another computer.

You have free good AVG antivirus (for home users).

Windows without antivirus is very bad thing.

For that purpose, I use linux Mint (based Ubuntu and Debian). And don't need antivirus software.
Good luck!

Im real picky about antivirus software. Sometimes they take up alot of rescources on your computer and cause you to run slow. But there is a free one that will detect the virus (i checked into it). This antivirus is 100% free. You never have to pay a dime or anything. It runs in the background of your computer, and automatically updates itself forever for 100% free. Download the antivirus from the link below, then run it on your computer, and when it prompts you to delete the virus DO IT!!!

Click this link....... scroll down to the middle...... and click the green download button. And install the antivirus. You will like this one and it will get rid of your problem. Good luck!!!!! Any questions contact me!
