What to do if you show signs of infection |
If you notice that your computer is behaving suspiciously...
- Don't panic! Do not give in to panic. This is the golden rule, and it could save you from losing important data and from a lot of fretting.
- Disconnect your computer from the Internet or local network, if it is on one.
- If the infection symptom is that you cannot boot from the computer's hard drive (the computer displays an error message when you turn it on), try booting in safe mode or with the emergency Microsoft Windows boot disk that you created when you installed the operating system on the computer.
- Before doing anything else, back up your work on removable storage media (floppy, CD/DVD, flash drive, etc.).
- Install Kaspersky Anti-Virus, if you have not done so already.
- Update program modules and threat signatures. If possible, get the updates off the Internet from an uninfected computer at a friend's, an Internet café, or work. It is better to use a different computer, since when you connect to the Internet with an infected computer, there is a chance that the virus will send important information to hackers or spread the virus to the addresses in your address book. That is why if you suspect that you have a virus, the best thing to do is to immediately disconnect from the Internet. You can also get threat signature updates on floppy disk from Kaspersky Labs or its distributors and update your signatures with the disk.
- Select the security level recommended by the experts at Kaspersky Labs.
- Start a full computer scan.
