How to Remove Viruses and Malware Safely

Viruses and malware can compromise your personal data, slow down your computer, and even lock you out of your own files.

Signs Your Computer May Be Infected: Unusual slow performance, frequent pop-up ads, programs opening automatically, browser redirects to unfamiliar sites.

Step 1: Disconnect from the Internet to prevent data theft and stop the malware from spreading.

Step 2: Enter Safe Mode to prevent most malware from loading.

Step 3: Run a Full System Scan with a reputable antivirus program.

Step 4: Delete Temporary Files where malware often hides.

Step 5: Reset Your Browsers to default settings.

If you're unable to remove malware yourself, US GEEK CONNECT technicians can safely clean your computer remotely. Call 1-888-821-3899.
