How To Remove Spyware From Your Computer

By Rosella Campbell


While the only way to prevent spyware from invading your laptop or desktop computer is to prevent it from being downloaded, the method is not the best for most people. Learning how to remove spyware is important because it will help you to stay keep away from malicious coders who take advantage of the security loopholes to fulfill their own agendas from stealing information from your computer. The problem is that spywares not only interfere with your privacy but also affect how your computer system operates.

Use Google search engine to search for the most appropriate spyware detection and removal software on the internet. There is unlimited software available for download including the Spybot Search and the Windows Defender. There are trusted websites on the internet from where you can get the software and the good thing is that they are freely available for download.

You know your computer has very important files that you do not want to lose, so you should back them up first before you start using the software you just downloaded. When you start using the downloaded software, you may lose data by accident or because of misdiagnoses so you need to make sure important files are safe. Do not ignore any file or think any of them is irrelevant because you may need them in future, so the best thing to do is to backup all of them.

Your computer obviously has official files, personal data, work related information and important programs you will never want to lose. The best thing to do therefore would be to have an external hard disk for all your data so that once you store the most important data then you will have nothing to worry about at all. Make sure you go through each file and folder to get the important data before you can start using the anti-spyware solution.

Once you complete backing up all or the most important data from your computer system, disconnect your computer from the internet and then reboot it. Do not start windows normally as you would when you want to use it, instead, reboot in Safe Mode. Proceed to the next step once your computer system starts.

The next thing to do is to scan your computer using anti-spyware software. This software is useful because it will help you remove infected files and folders from your computer system. You can also uninstall the infected files or programs using uninstall utility program that come installed in the control panel section of your computer.

You should restart your laptop or desktop computer and see if this has solved the problem. In most cases, the anti-spyware should be just great enough to solve the problem and then one can continue using the computer system as normal without any further problems. There are cases when this does not work and in such instances, you may want to resort to a more advanced solution.

You may have to format the entire hard drive and then install a new operating system. Of course, this is the worst thing you want to think about so you want to try all possible solutions until you are sure this is the only way out. If all the available means do not work well for you or in the least solve the problem, backup all data and then proceed with formatting. Make sure you have the software ready to install after you reinstall your operating system.
