GridinSoft Anti-Malware is useful when you need to get rid of Malware on your PC  – Trojan Horses, Worms, Adware, Spyware…

Usually antivirus software is intended to remove viruses, rootkits and other infection in your system. But they are oftenly ineffective when you are bombed with a huge amount of adwertisment and pop-ups, and malicious software… When standard anti-virus software either fails to detect them or fails to effectively eliminate them Antimalware Software will be effective in this field. We are good in doing this and we are proud of our mission to let you breathe freely surfing the Internet!

The majority of Anti-Malware Scanners are well able to detect malicious software – Trojan Horses, Internet Worms, Adware/Spyware etc. – but are not always efficient in removing them once they have been triggered.
GridinSoft Anti-Malware is designed specifically to disable/remove Malware without the user having to manually edit system files or the Registry. The program also removes the additional system modifications some Malware carries out which are ignored by some standard antivirus scanners.

GridinSoft Anti-Malware scans ALL the files loaded at boot time for Adware, Spyware, Remote Access Trojans, Internet Worms and other malware.

The Web-Site of GridinSoft Anti-Malware is https://anti-malware.gridinsoft.com/. This is the place where you can get the majority of useful information about the latest news in the area of malware applications and how to remove them with the help of GridinSoft Anti-Malware using our malware removal guides (choose Blog section).

From this starting place you may also purchase the program and ask for help via customer ticket support system.

So, here you are, staring at your home or business computer infected with certain unwanted application, malware or, to say shortly, by a virus.

Have you ever been in such situations?

Surely you have, to this or other extent. There are certain virus removal principals which you must adhere to for successful restoration of your computer back to the status it had before the very virus attack occurred. This article is devoted to these general recommendations for our users when they face certain type of virus. Please read it carefully and try to follow these admonitions in times of problems with your computer.

Do not panic!

Often this is exactly what the malware developers want from you. If users tend to panic they also tend to make quick judgments. This is especially true when being infected with fake anti-virus program. Some people (again, in panic) make the decisions in haste regarding purchasing the rogue security programs which are useless and helpless.

Investigate!

You need to perform certain research as to the type of the malware program/problem which attacked your PC and for the ways it can be dealt with/eliminated. The World Wide Web is full of security forums, sites, online discussion platforms, blogs and other sources of useful information. If you did not find the solution or answer you might consider posting the question on Yahoo!Answers or Microsoft Answers site.

Read the removal instructions carefully!

Many sites over the Internet offer the excellent removal guidelines and tips on how to get rid of viruses. They recommend certain removal solutions, including the anti-virus applications. However, the good security blog or site would offer the detailed guidelines on all the necessary steps for malware elimination, and it might not be enough just to run the recommended anti-virus software. So, once again, read the instructions carefully and follow them completely.

Be selective!

Many sites nowadays recommend certain security applications, either free or subject to be paid for. We are not in the position to rate them or to speak either negatively or positively about them. Let the people rate the anti-virus programs (even though indeed many of the contemporary security applications know nothing about effective removal of malware). So, research this issue and do not pick up just the first security program you’ve encountered.

Communicate!

If you have problems using certain anti-virus software and thus cannot remove the virus you need to immediately contact the software developer or its customer support team and tell them about your problems. Do not hurry up to uninstall the software if it failed to remove certain viruses! It might be that you did not follow the removal guidelines completely or that the virus has been recently modified and is not duly detected by anti-virus software. Do not purchase or download another software in haste, without first having contacted the developers of the one that failed to remove the virus. If you choose GridinSoft Anti-Malware as your security software the best way to contact us is via ticket customer support service available here – https://support-antimalware.com/open.php.

Be patient!

It takes some time to research your problem thoroughly in order to give the proper and really helpful answer (recommendation). So, it might take a little bit longer than you expect to resolve the issue of your concern.

Be polite!

While communicating with the customer support team you are dealing with people and not with robots. We are people like you and sometimes we have the same problems you have. We strive for satisfying our customers the best we can and do not ignore your requests. We cherish our customers and try to please them, even though sometimes the issue cannot be resolved as quickly as we want.

Trust us!

We undertake to fulfill the responsibilities before our clients and in the case of problems we will give the priority to the benefit of our users and not ourselves.

We do cherish our customers, even though sometimes things for them go not as smoothly as they want. We will do the best we can assist you in the removal of malware from your computer and hope to build strong and friendly relations with you in the future. Remember that by purchasing GridinSoft Anti-Malware you receive the lifetime customer support for all your PC security needs. We hope this portion of information has been helpful to you.

However, in some cases the system might ask you to reset browser settings or to reboot your computer and run the scan again. If this is the case, please, act accordingly.

1. Application Log. Gathers data about actions of the program, fixates information about possible problems when the program performs starting, scanning or other tasks.
2. Protection Log is a detailed log about results of work of three real-time protection systems. If you have any suspicion of conflict in the work with other programs, while Internet Security and On-Run Protection are turned on, we see it in Protection Log.
3. Scan Log contains a detailed report of scan results: the scan time, its type, which objects were scanned, and what threats were detected.

Ignore List for files, folders, registry objects

– shows the items to which actions such as “Ignore once” or “Ignore always” have been applied after the scan and with enabled On-Run Protection.

• performing a deep scan (slow);
• detecting Potential Unwanted Programs and Riskware;
• ignoring incomplete files;
• ignoring files larger than 64 MB;
• terminating memory threats while scanning;
• showing scan errors;
• scanning on connect USB-device;
• using heuristic rules;
• the option not to save log files.

 

• the present level of protection of your computer (1, 2 or 3 drops), depending on the number of protection elements activated;
• the activity time of at least one security element;
• the current Report Log with the specification what object and by which protection element was detected and what action was applied to it;
• the number of scanned and detected objects, total and separate for each element.

You can also undo each action by double clicking on it and applying what you think it’s more appropriate.

This feature allows you to get extra protection against possible threat aggression. When you occasionally launch certain executable file which is infected and thus identified by GridinSoft Anti-Malware as a virus, the program would immediately notify you of it and will not let you launch it until you authorize the system to permit such actions. By default, this option is already activated once you install the software.

You can see this feature in the form of “Protect” tab. Once you launch GridinSoft Anti-Malware this feature will be activated immediately (permanently monitoring your PC activity and protecting you from possible launching of malware applications).

You can apply any action you consider is right in every specific situation. There are Ignore Once, Delete, Move to quarantine and Ignore Always options.

When a certain malware process is just about to be launched you would get the following notification:

If you choose Block always option the found threat will bу quarantined, and if you choose Ignore always the found object will be added to ignore list.
