FREE Spyware Removal

I would like to share some ways to avoid spyware and precautions to prevent spywares before getting infected. Because it’s being said that Prevention is better than cure. Most suspected hole from which we can be affected and get spywares is the internet and who create these holes? These are the applications on our system. And most used and dangerous is or internet browser. A normal user gets affected when doing the normal browsing with his internet browser.

I would recommend that always be careful when browsing on internet read dialog boxes before clicking on them. Use safe browser setting and safe browser. I would never recommend Internet explorer as a safe browser as it’s the main entrance to every spyware.

Here is a list of popular browsers.

1-Google Chrome

Simply the best browser in speed and security but still need to have a lot of improvements in speed and stability. GUI is not much user friendly it needs improvements because for new users it’s not easy to use.

2-Opera

This is the browser that I am using from my student life and if you are concerned about security only and security is your first preference and you don’t need JavaScript and plugins it’s the best. It is also remarkable in speed after Google chrome but if you open a lot of tabs it will slow down.

While I am switched to Chrome due to some extra feature but still in a love with Opera for its top notch security. One can say the security is due to lack of functionality in some areas but even then it’s secure if you don’t care much about the lacking features.

3-Fire Fox

Fire fox is another browser with good speed and easy to use for a new user as compared to opera or chrome. Also Fir fox considering security a lot but still have some issues due to increase in popularity and some vulnerability. However over all it’s also a good browser with a lot of things for a user.

4-Internet Explorer

This is the best browser I have ever seen not for user but for spyware, viruses and malwares. Internet Explorer’s blue icon making an “e” is just like the blue screen of death. When you press this blue icon if IE you are compromising your security in other words you are inviting spywares to attach your system. Internet explorer is just making your system like a peace of cake for spywares and adwares. Most of the spywares and malwares get installed with IE.

The Conficker A worm first surfaced in November 2008 and quickly infected thousands of business networks worldwide. Conficker malware authors subsequently released Conficker B. Conficker C appeared in March 2009. Well over 1 million Windows machines have been infected.

Reportedly, on April 1, 2009 the Conficker botnet may be activated. It’s possible nothing may happen.

But if a machine or your network becomes infected, the free Sophos Conficker clean-up tool will take care of the problem.

Although there is uncertainty and hype surrounding Conficker, it presents a significant threat as it looks to take advantage of patch, network share and autoplay vulnerabilities. The latest variant can compromise peer-to-peer file sharing and includes a new domain generation algorithm increasing the potential Internet rendezvous points to 50,000 domains per day.

I want to share with you what happened to me a few hours back I was in a real trap.

I was doing some search related to teeth enamel and how to cure its damage. Obviously this topic does not relate by any means to online spyware scan or malware scan. But unfortunately when I clicked on few links from the first page of the Google, suddenly a flashing screen came in front of me that was claiming that its performing my systems online spyware or malware scan. Here is how this online spyware scan looks like.

Interestingly whole scan finished within seconds and found many trojans in my system and giving an option for the full system scan. When I tried to close the window it showed many message boxes one by one to prevent me from leaving the site and tried to download an installation .exe file many times that was blocked by the browser. I have taken few screen shots for your reference.

This online spyware or malware scan was just a scam and showing fake system scanning. The main target of the scam was to let me download antivirus 360 and install it and I am quite sure it will contain many spyware and malwares itself. So it’s very important to be careful of this kind of online spyware and malware scans. Most of them are just a shit nothing else.

Today I am going to discuss interesting topic about spywares. While you are searching for some free spyware removal solution you can find a lot of free spyware remover, anti spywares or spyware killers with different names. Most of these free spyware removals support online (free) spyware scan. But this is very important to know which free spyware remover is actually going to do the job. Because there are only a few real anti spywares, that are free and reliable. Most of these so called free spyware removal programs are themselves spies in a nutshell. So most of the online spyware scans which showing the false positive results, like they found a spyware in your system, are spy themselves. You have to think twice if you are really willing to try such an online spyware scanner or planning to have that free spyware remover for your permanent security.

Secondly there are many mainly trustable software contain spywares in their setup programs while you install those software you will get effected with a spyware and you are totally unaware . According to a famous information site following installers contain different kind of spywares or adwares in their setups.

There are very good chances that you will get a lot of more spywares while trying different free antispyware scams or if you are trying to remove spyware manually without proper instructions you may end with a system crash. If you realy want a totally free spyware removal program you need to consider a lot of things.
