How Do I Get Rid Of A Computer Worm?
I have anti virus software but I got a worm some how. How do I get rid of it? Or is it even possible? Will my computer function normally after it is taken care of? Do I have to worry about it comig back? Is there a way to stop it from happening again? I have an hp laptop i bought about 3 or so years ago with windows xp.














Step 1
Visit your virus-scan software manufacturer’s Web site and install any virus updates that are available. Then run the software. The software may not be able to delete the virus, but it may be able to identify it.
Step 2
Search the Web for information regarding your specific virus by typing the name of the virus or its associated file into a search engine followed by the word “virus.” For example, “Melissa virus,” “BubbleBoy virus,” etc.
Step 3
Download and install any patches or other programs that will help you eliminate the virus. Or follow any instructions you find on deleting the virus manually.
Step 4
Run another virus scan to make sure the virus has been dealt with properly.

Restart PC in safe mode by gently tapping F-8 key, choosing Safe Mode with Networking. Download, Update and run Malwarebytes in Full Scan. When done and restarted Out of safe mode, download, update, run A-squared, and next Hitman Pro. Next download and run Ccleaner and the Reg Cleaner in Ccleaner. Turn off System Restore and turn back on.
Uninstall your AV if you even have one and use Ccleaner again after restarting PC and put AV back on. I suggest you use Avira or Avast and not AVG free, which does not protect against Rootkits.
use a malicious software tool such as MRT from microsoft, or superantispyware free version. make sure that you have firewall turned on and windows updates set to automatic after you do a full scan, quarantine and then reboot.
