And there was me thinking this would be a thread about Ebola Zaire.....
As for virus', I don't have much experience with them tbh. I have had a few serious ones over the years though, so bad that they required a full scouring of my HDD and/or a complete reboot. In the worst case I had to buy a whole new PC!

You need to get a program called rKill that kills malicious processes, and then download malwarebytes, which can clear off the windows antivirus type stuff. also, you may need to boot in Safe Mode.

avast! and CCleaner have kept my computer in fine shape, even as I trawl the the blackest depths of the internet.
Yes, I'm aware that you don't trawl very deep. It just sounded cool.

There are some who walk until their legs fail them and they fall to the ground. I find that respectable.
Then there are those who drag themselves further. I find that admirable. |

I keep one of my Baneblade's on my hard drive at all times to scare any nasty viruses way from my precious holy hard drive.
I keep my Commisar next to my router, so make sure it stays at peak efficiency and does not commit heresy against the God-Emperor.

"The Imperium is nothing if not willing to go to any lengths necessary. So the Trekkies are zipping around at warp speed taking small chucks out of an nigh-on infinite amount of ships, with the Imperium being unable to strike back. feth it, says central command, and detonates every vortex warhead in the fleet, plunging the entire sector into the Warp. Enjoy tentacle-rape, Kirk, we know Sulu will." -Terminus
