You all know that dealing with viruses,trojans,worms and spyware hard job to do.
even specialists sometimes can go mad while cleaning their computer from these nasty things.

Just remember this; there is no perfect protection.Even a most secure "security suite" can miss/can't delete some of these viruses,trojan,worms or spywares on the internet.

So what should we do?
Installing a second anti-virus,anti-spyware or firewall can cause technical problems,low system source, and even blue screen of death.

But we can use a second opinion from another tools to be sure if our system is clean.

What are they?
Online scanners,on-demand scanners (which means they does not include an on-access real-time scanner)
There are many online scanners,on-demand scanners on the web.But I will give few (well-known and really working) of them as an example.They will be your security suites side-kick.

Online Scanners;
F-Secure online scanner (http://support.f-secure.com/ols/start.html)
Bitdefender online scanner (http://www.bitdefender.com/scan8/ie.html)
Trendmicro House Call (http://housecall65.trendmicro.com/)

why these ones as an example? Cause they can also clean whatever they found and cause of high detection rates.

On-demand Scanners;
a-squared free 3.5 (http://download6.emsisoft.com/a2FreeSetup.exe)
Clamwin Antivirus 0.93 (http://downloads.sourceforge.net/clamwin/clamwin-0.93-setup.exe)
EMCO Malware Destroyer 4.1.5 (http://www.emco.is/download/malwaredestroyer/malwaredestroyersetup.exe)
SUPERAntiSpyware Free 4.0.1154 (http://downloads2.superantispyware.com/downloads/SUPERAntiSpyware.exe)
Ad-Aware 2007 free 7.0.2.7 (http://download.betanews.com/download/965718306/aaw2007.exe)

Enjoy the safe ways of the web.As you know already,don't open/start unknown mails,programs.

Still here and want more protection?

If you are using Internet Explorer,you can use IE7Pro,which is a useful add-on with lots of features and add-blocker.
Or you can use a different browser.This would be better in my opinion.Cause we all know IE has many vulnerabilities.
Firefox and Opera are good choices.
(Safari lacks anti-phishing features and still more way to go for windows version)

Tell me if this article usefull,and I will be back with more detailed articles and safety tools.
