CA - where can we delete the infections


Recommended Posts

I know this is not the place to post my question but I can't help it as I did

not get any reply from CA when I send them the email (twice) about a week

ago. Their coporate section can't help either. Is there anyone out there who

have use CA anti virus scan and after the scanning, where can we click to

delete the infections? There is no button to click to delete it. When I

rescan, the sames infections will be detected, so obviously it does not

automativally clean or delete it. Kindly please advice if you are using CA

and I apologise for posting here, thank you very much.

Re: CA - where can we delete the infections

 

Hello,

 

If you use the CA Anti-Virus, then it will automatically quarantine all the

viruses. You can delete these files if you wish by opening the CA Anti-Virus

window and then going to the 'Quarantine' section (see the left hand column

of the window) where it will list all the files it has quarantined. You can

then delete (by clicking on the delete button/ delete all button) these

"potentially malicious files" or restore them.

Hope this helps,

Rishi

Re: CA - where can we delete the infections

 

If it is quarantine in the first scan, why then if I scan immediately after

the 1st scan, it will detect the same virus infections.? Should there be zero

infections or at least not the same one at the same locations? This is what I

cant understand. Thanks for the response and hope you can share your thoughts

on the above questions.

Run a /thorough/ check for hijackware, including posting your hijackthis log

to an appropriate forum.

 

Checking for/Help with Hijackware

When all else fails, HijackThis v1.99.1

(http://aumha.org/downloads/hijackthis.zip) is the preferred tool to use.

It will help you to both identify and remove any hijackware/spyware with

assistance from an expert. **Post your log to

http://castlecops.com/forum67.html,

http://forums.subratam.org/index.php?showforum=7,

http://aumha.net/viewforum.php?f=30, or other appropriate forums for expert

analysis, not here.**

 

If the procedures look too complex - and there is no shame in admitting this

isn't your cup of tea - take the machine to a local, reputable and

independent (i.e., not BigBoxStoreUSA) computer repair shop.
