Malware Removal

What is Malware?

Malware is a blanket term used to describe any computer program that is created with the intention of harming a computer, the data stored on it, or intercepting information and sending it on to cyber thieves.

Unfortunately, malware is very much a part of modern life when using a computer.

It is easy to be caught out by an infected installer or by whizzing through the install process of a piece of software and inadvertently agreeing to an unwanted program.

So what are the options for malware removal?

The tools we use for malware removal are:

There are three programs that we turn to when it comes to removing Malware from computers.

These tools are either free, free for home users or free for 30days.
