Every day I see multiple computers from customers that have had their computers infected with viruses, malware, spyware and adware. When I call the customer to let them know what is wrong with their computer and how much it will cost, they always ask me the same thing. Why didn't my antivirus software catch the infection and get rid of it it. The next question is did I lose my data.

So for your own protection make sure you have good antivirus software and make sure it is up to date. I can't count any more of the people that have virus software that expired a year or two ago. So what is the best antivirus software in 2017. Well I do like Kaspersky, Webroot and Mcafee Antivirus. The only drawbacks with them are one that Kaspersky is very picky and may block certain programs and functions. Webroot Antivirus has been around a long time and still does very well. No as for Mcafee Antivirus I had some concerns in the last year or two. Mcafee was very good back in the 90s and early 2000s, but dwindled for awhile. The newest versions seem to be doing much better.

There are some programs that you can run to cleanup infections that may have wormed their way in. The first would be roguekiller, second would be junkware removal tool and finally adwcleaner. All of these can be downloaded from their website or from bleeping.com and are free. If you find any other programs check on google.com or yahoo.com to see if there are any problems with certain programs. Some are just not as good as they seem. If you do run these programs use them in the safemode with networking. There are other virus removal tools available that do a good job as well.
