My wife called me one day and tell me that the store couldn't process the credit card. Strange I though to my self, how could that be. So I call the customer service and found out someone got a hold of my card and order some stuffs on a hunting sport related website. How can some one get a hold of my credit card information? At that moment, I realize I could be a victim of some spy ware virus. Someone could tracking my computer activities for private information.
So I search high and low for a free virus scan to detect these spy ware virus, a.k.a malware. The problem I realized then, how can you trust anything download from the Web these day. A malicious website can disguise itself with legitimate looking pages and you just can't tell.
Anyway I just got luck out when my Web host service who actually get attacked by malware and they sent me a link to this free scan. I downloaded the utility, installed it, ran it, and sure enough it found a whole bunch of malicious Trojans and other spy ware virus. So if you ever click on some suspicious link and have a gut feeling that yours computer is infected with malicious malware, please take my adivce and down load this
malware scanner to make sure. If the link is broken, please do a Google search for "malwarebytes anti-malware". The software is for free to use for scanninng. You can purchase it to get more advanced features.
