What is Malware

Malware stand for "malicious software" program. It has ominous names, such as viruses, Trojan horses, malicious keyloggers, Backdoors and Rootkits. Most malware ("malicious software") programs will reinstall themselves even after you think they have been removed. WOW! That's scaring. You thought you had removed malware from your computer and there's still  Symptoms of Malware.

So, what's next, now that my computer is infected? First thing do to is download Malwarebytes.

Double Click mbam-setup.exe to install the application. Make sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes Launch Malwarebytes and click Finish. If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version. Once the program has loaded, select Perform Quick Scan then click Scan. When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results. Make sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected. And reboot your computer.

I would recommend to purchase the full version of MalwareBytes. There Realtime Protection Module monitors all processes and stops malicious processes before they start, so your computer will be safe.
