Online Scans

In the event that you suspect that you may have some unwanted program on your computer, it is very helpful to double check your results by running an "online scan". This takes place independently from the programs installed on your computer. In the event that a virus or other malicious program corrupts your computer, an online scan can often find and kill it when your own may be tricked into missing it. The resources below are very helpful to that end.
