Wombat Sir, I have the Windows Defender and AVG Free program.
Besides, I run periodically the CCleaner and EasyCleaner.
Besides these what other programs should one have in the system?
I would be much grateful for a comprehensive instruction just as you gave for the removal of Virus Heat from my system. I am learning a lot by going through the instructions slowly. I am really glad that this Virus Heat came in and demanded that I buy their product for $ 49.95 It is still residing in my tray of task bar.
Re 02, above, I was told to be careful of opening annexures that come with emails. But this came in on its own.
Re 03, you are right. I was watching girly pictures that came in when i was browsing a community site. They warned me but my curious and lustful mind did not allow me to pay heed to the warnings.
Now I understand that Virus Heat has created problems for many others too.
It is interesting to know that the problem is so vast 100s of users are affected and another 100s are involved in teaching users how to get rid of it.
So, Virus Heat is in existence legally, but rather violently though.
Thank you, ben
