Don’t You Just Hate Viruses, Spywares and more?
I reckon that most of us are all aware of virus, trojan, worms, spywares, adwares and other nasty programs that can disrupt the normal functioning of our everyday computing. Sometimes our simple browsing of a site, clicking a link or downloading of a file can already have our computers vulnerable to any of virus attacks and that we should or must have a computer protection than can prevent them or eliminate them.
If your computer freezes, slows down or crashing on you most of the times then you have every reason to suspect that is infected already. I know this is annoying but we should learn how to protect our computers by putting and updating our anti virus everyday because not many know that each day, new strains of viruses etc. are sprouting and are ready to wreak havoc on your pc.
My computer once has been attacked by a virus via the YM messenger and oh boy it was so annoying that my friends told me that I have been sending multiple links to their messengers w/o me knowing. Thanks to those virus removal programs that helped clean my infected computer.

Malwarebytes Removed the Worm/Virus at my Yahoo Messenger
Gosh, I was so upset yesterday when I learned that my Yahoo Messenger is being attacked by virus/worm. My sis JOYD would not even want to talk to me on YM bec. she told me that my YM is sending some links while we are talking. She is so careful of that and of course she is not clicking it, although she is using an iMAC but still she is cautious of that.
Anyway, I really don’t know where the hell I got those worm on my YM. I only chat with friends and family and I’ can’t remember clicking any links where i got it. Here’s How I Removed the Worm/Virus at my Yahoo Messenger.
Anyway, I made a blog post about this the other day and my online friends ANA PS read it and she recommended me to download this MALWAREBYTES at download.com bec. she once had this worm too. So w/o any much thinking, I unistalled my Yahoo M, 1st then downloaded this. Run in ito my computer and boooommmmmmm, it caught 3 culprits named
1. WORM SOHANAD
2. TROJAN ZLOB
3. ROOTKIT ZLOB
It spreads itself through instant messengers like Yahoo, Windows Messenger and Windows Live Messenger. It sends a malicious link to people in your contact list that would download copies of itself.
Fortunately it was removed by this software and my YM is not worm free yahoooo!!! SO if you suspect that you have spyware or adware try this and for sure it can trap them.
HERE is what Malwarebytes caught in my computer and thankfully it was deleted
