Using a Piortable Scanner can help idetnify and eliminate any issues that your main antivirus program may have missed and is quite easy to use. Simply download the prograam onto a flahs drive or disc. Boot your machine up in Safe Mode, and execute the program to Scan your computr. You may have to safe the program off to your desktop if your PC does not have USB capabilitiies.
Anotheer option that you have is to boot from a CD which is a bit more coomplicated than simply downloading the program and then running it. One requiremnent for this step is that you will have to download a good malware reemoval program. You will be required to burn the contenyts from wihin the ISO file to a CD.
When you have the disc made, you can load it and run it under safe mode to perform the scan of your system. This program runs a text basd version of Linux, hwich in turn uses the internet to update its own database and scan you computer. The requirement here of course being the ability to reach the internet, wghich may not necessazrily be the case if Liunx does not have the proper access to drivers used by your networkinng hardware. If a connnection to the internet is not achoievable, then you can use a flash drvie containing the latest version of the softwre.
Thgere is one danger to usuing this option and that is the fact that windows system fiels may be altered during the process which leaves the chance of not beoing able to boot Windows. If you feel that you're main antivirus progrram is not completely doing the job, then you may want to look into secondary anttivirus solution to help identify and eliminate malicious software on your PC.
