Mark Casazza Consulting Virus and Spyware Remediations
In most cases, I can remove viruses and spyware at your location without any drastic measures. I charge $50.00 for an on-site virus and spyware removal process. If damage is sufficeint that the operating system (Windows) needs to be reinstalled, the cost varies based on the need to backup and restore data files, availability or drivers, etc.
If you would like to try your hand at removing viruses and spyware, I suggest these resources:
McAfee AVERT Stinger for initial virus removal. Stinger is a stand-alone utility used to detect and remove specific viruses. It is not a substitute for full anti-virus protection, but rather a tool to assist administrators and users when dealing with an infected system. Stinger utilizes next generation scan engine technology, including process scanning, digitally signed DAT files, and scan performance optimizations.
F-Prot Antivirus for Windows for continued virus protection. F-Prot Antivirus for Windows provides high quality data protection and security without draining your system’s resources and without the need for the latest operating system or the latest hardware. Designed to run on Windows 98, 98SE, ME, NT, 2000, 2003 and Windows XP, and with a personal license covering all computers in the license holder's home, F-Prot Antivirus for Windows allows you to maintain complete home data security for a very modest price.
Spybot Search & Destroy for spyware control. Spybot - Search & Destroy can detect and remove spyware of different kinds from your computer. Spyware is a relatively new kind of threat that common anti-virus applications do not yet cover. If you see new toolbars in your Internet Explorer that you didn't intentionally install, if your browser crashes, or if you browser start page has changed without your knowing, you most probably have spyware. But even if you don't see anything, you may be infected, because more and more spyware is emerging that is silently tracking your surfing behaviour to create a marketing profile of you that will be sold to advertisement companies. Spybot-S&D is free, so there's no harm in trying to see if something snooped into your computer, too.
