Computer Secure
Here are some of the free online anti-virus programs, anti-virus software and free scans from the best anti-virus specialists.
Most of these companies offer free tools to remove the latest virus, worm, trojan horse and backdoor malware.
ALWIL Software, makers of avast! antivirus tools, provide a free download to detect and fix viruses.
Here you can upload an individual file so Kaspersky Lab can scan it for virus infection.
This online tool will not actually clean out or fix the problem if viruses are found. But you can get a free trial of Kaspersky's anti-virus and security tools and have the problem repaired that way.
Also, you could just go directly to get the free trial of Kaspersky Anti-Virus.
In case you don't see links to free trials on the pages that open, download a free trial of Kaspersky Antivirus from us here.
On this page at BitDefender you can have your computer scanned for infected files.
BitDefender provide tools to remove specific viruses, worms, backdoors, trojans and other threats.
If you know you have some specific virus you can download a dedicated tool to remove it.
Below is a partial list of malware that BitDefender can clean (at the time of me writing this).
(This list is actually for the earch engines and people using the virus name to search for a solution. This will help them find this link to the free repair tool at BitDefender.)
