About harmful software and ways to confront him.

Hello dear reader! Today we will talk about computer viruses and other malicious programs. I will also explain how to minimize the risks of “infection” and how to heal the “iron friend” if it happened.

A variety of computer programs, a distinctive feature of which is the ability to reproduce (self -consultation). In addition to this, viruses can perform other arbitrary actions without knowing the user, including harm to the user and/or computer. For this reason, viruses are attributed to harmful programs.

All existing systems are subject to infection of malicious programs. From Windows to Windows Mobile by Android to all Linux distributions.

There are several types of malware.

This harmful program intercepts pressed combinations of keyboard keys and sends them to the "server". Such programs are especially dangerous if you perform payment transactions on a computer.

Basically, these are appearing banners at the bottom of the browser.

Ummm … This is an image with a bun on the floor of the monitor. And in this image it is written something like “to remove this image Send SMS. ". You can’t send SMS anyway! It is also worth noting that mainly such banners “picked up” users who roam porn sites and put the programs proposed by him for supposedly “watching a piquant video”.

Java Virus. Such viruses (with the right “structure”) 100% will start on any OS where Java is installed. Basically, this type of viruses does not “break the systems” but intercepts keyboard combinations or makes other “universal subversive activities”. Especially dangerous because it works strongly everywhere! Isn’t it ominous ^_ ^?

*Java’s work of viruses constantly block the "updates" of the "toad" itself.

As you like! You can just be on the network without firewall and antivirus and they will send you a virus. You can pick up it by downloading any unknown file. Mostly Windows viruses are exe files. Also, with Java installed by Java, you can pick up a Java virus.

Also as you like. This usually happens when it gets on a porn site … Then, using holes in the nucleus, a third-party script receives the rights of a “superpol-user” and collects a virus (or himself) from for example TAR.BZ2. Also, with Java installed by Java, you can pick up a Java virus.

*Particularly easy for hackers is the openness of Linux. That is, hackers can quickly study the system (or a new “patch” for it) literally from head to toe. But OS with a closed code is done much slower.

** Linux users actually summarizes superstition like “under linux there are no viruses or“ there are too few of them and you cannot pick up … Actually the history has proved the opposite.

1.Need antivirus and network screen.
First of all, you need to have a “network screen” (that is, a firewall) and antivirus. Fortunately, the choice is now quite large … For those people who can pay to eat Kaspersky Internet Security, different versions of DR.Web, Nod32 and others so far unknown to me paid antiviruses and firewalls. For those who want “freebies” there are free antiviruses and network screens. This is, for example, Comodo Internet Secyriti or Avast! (I don’t advise you to use avast. Misses viruses as a sieve.)

*Also in all the "marchutizers" (they are also routers and raditiers) a network screen is built. In the presence of a marchutizer, it is quite possible to abandon the software firewall (aka network screen) in order not to overload the system with different programs.

2. Never click on https://virgingamescasino.uk/ suspicious links and do not download suspicious files!

Unfortunately, most of the malicious software enters the computer according to the elementary "stupidity" of the user. He clicks on links with the word "free porn" or "DirectX 10 for XP". Basically, viruses and worms are waiting for him there. But downloading supposedly the “flash player” not with adobe.ru is quite possible to get a virus virus or porn banner instead.

3. Update the systems and java in time.

Updates cover holes into the OS and thus simply do not allow some malicious in the way that could work.

4. Check the uploaded files using antivirus.

1. Kaspersky defender!

When infected the computer will help the utility Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool!
Using a healthy computer, download this program with Support.Kaspersky.ru/viruses. Next are 2 options.

1. Put the installation file on the flash drive (without viruses). Next, load the infected computer in safe mode. We insert the flash drive and put the installation file Kaspersky Virus Removal Tool. Next, we indicate that he would check everything (you can not indicate the disk on which there is no system. But it is advisable to indicate it all the same). Next in the settings, we indicate the level of “deep” analysis and say that the program misses files for verification of which you need to spend more than 60 seconds. (This is done so that the removal does not check very large files that are definitely not viruses. The viruses themselves and other harmful in a very small size.) If, after checking, the removal found something, then he will ask you what to do. Personally, I choose the default action.

2. On a healthy computer, launch the installation file and put the removal on the flash drive. We launch an infected computer from a safe mode. Further directly from the flash drive without installation, we start the removal and do what is described at the top.

Drweb Cureit

So we got to the spider)

This program is looking for viruses on the likeness of a removal (nevertheless, statistics say that the removal for some reason finds much more while the “kureyt” dulls like a puppy in the dark.).

You can upload this program with www.Drweb.ru, but there they will demand from us to indicate our soap and name. So we go to. ftp: // ftp.Drweb.COM/PUB/DRWEB/CUREIT and download the most fresh version there (of course, we do it from a healthy computer). Further, as usual, we copy the file on the USB flash drive (also without viruses) load the OS in safe mode … and start the file. Here we will be offered a choice … or an enhanced mode (if you choose it, then you cannot work with Cureit.) or refuse. Choose an enhanced mode and wait until Cureit checks the basics of the OS (there is no indication during this. It is also worth noting that on weak computers this process lasts quite a long time). After checking the Fundamentals of Cureit will perform a quick check. If he finds something, he will tell you.

*For greater effectiveness, I advise you to check in turn first with a removal then Cureit.

Actually, we again have 3 options! This is Kaspersky Rescue Disk that can be recorded either on a flash drive (for this you can download a special one in the same place where it lies with a reservo disk) or on the diabetes (well, I hope everything is clear here).

*Unfortunately, in the new version of Casper, something was worn out and on some computers RECECE disk gives an error and does not start.

There is also Dr.Web LiveCd and his yusb version Dr.Web Live usb.(You can download it on www.Drweb.ru)

*With new versions of this software from the “spider” I am not familiar.

Actually, after recording, you need to load either with SD or with USB (the guide to the motherboard to help you), and then you will figure it out yourself. ^_^

Actually so to speak … neither the virus nor the worm for you! If you have questions, then write in the comments. I will answer.

The best comments

Em. Article, hmm is strange.

There is no such such breakdown. "Advertising Program" is usually an ordinary browser plugin, which is installed by the virus.

Porn Banners – Winlock \ System Lock. They are usually quite easy to remove. On the Kaspersky website, you can get anti -rejection in the form required to enter the code.

> Usually this happens when it gets on a porn site … Then, with the help of holes in the core, a third-party script receives the rights of a “superpol-user” and collects a virus (or oneself) from for example TAR.BZ2.

Not even close. Getting on a porn site will not give anything, as the browser works in a regular user mode. And if the viruses manage to get Root, then only with bugs in programs of type X or nucleus. But suddenly the nuclei are different. And the universal virus is almost impossible to write.

> ** Linux users actually summarizes superstition like “under linux there are no viruses or“ there are too few of them and they cannot be picked up … Actually history has proved the opposite.

In Windows, this understanding is really difficult. But Linux has a bunch of other safety problems. And if a person does not understand the system to break it easier than a lung most often.
Java, by the way, also works under the user in Linux.

> As you like! You can just be on the network without firewall and antivirus and they will send you a virus.
: D
It’s mildly wrong.

And regarding recommendations, everything is very simple.
1. Install antivirus and update it. Holivars about which ones are better for many years and will not end soon. In fact, all popular good. Kaspersky, Avast, NOD.
2. Install a normal browser. Not IE.
It is also advisable to disable all third -party plugins of the Java, Silverlight and others. And include them only on the site on the white list. In chrome, you can add the site to the white list with one click of mouse.
But in Chrome it is less relevant, t.To here Java is performed in Sandbox.
3. Do not launch files from left sites. If you really need a file, then send it for examination: www.Virustotal.Com/
Before starting by itself. You can download any files, even if it is viruses.

This is actually all. If you follow the recommendations, the chance will become infected will strive for zero.

*Yes, I protect him. You can throw apples at me … preferably green: 3*
