When it comes to what programs to use for cleaning computer infections I recommend using Free Malwarebytes. It is one of those programs you can download and install on your computer. Make sure to update it and then run the complete scan on all partitions from the safe mode with networking. I have also run it in a clean boot environment, but I prefer safemode with networking.
There are of course other free virus cleaning programs I like to run as well. One of them is Rogue Killer. They have come out with a new version and it does a good job. I also like to run Junk Removal Tool and ADW Cleaner. All these programs and more can be downloaded from bleeping.com . One other programs I like is combofix and it can be downloaded from bleeping.com, remember it does not run in windows 8.1 and windows 10. I primarily use it on windows 7 systems and it does a good job. I have heard some people say it takes out too much and messes up a system. I myself have never had this problem.
I do have one bit of advise for anyone out there cleaning up viruses. If you see a virus cleaning program make sure to use google and do a search on the program for any problems with it. There are plenty of junk programs and malicious programs that do nothing. Some of them will bring in viruses, spyware, adware and malware. So always play it safe and check it out before downloading and installing anything.
