How malwares installed in windows

[Doroteo]

Hi,
Every time virus is the main issue in my computer. My desktop computer runs on Windows Vista and the other one on Windows XP. I play games online. Many times I have to visit some sites which are untrusted. But still I ignore the warning due to some patches. I believe this is causing the malware attacks in my computer. How malware installed are installed in my computer and how to find them. I am not engaged with the antivirus application.

Malware is software developed in order to harm a computer. Viruses and worms are two examples of malware most known, but there are others. Here are a few examples, but the imagination of programmers the malware is probably limitless - viruses are written in order to replicate on other computers. They may also have the detrimental effect of disrupting more or less seriously harm the functioning of the infected computer, destroying or modifying files.

This keys makes them to run automatically. The infections then goes on increasing and then crashing your windows. The best way to clean up your system is to clear the registries. A registry editor will do.

This services are loaded automatically and visible in msconfig. A registry key - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\servicename can the sample for the same. Also check your startup option in the start menu.
