I'm always glad that I could teach something and hope that they will learn from it as well.Īlso, Budfred's Rant: Volunteers and Malware Criminals sums it up nicely with more reasons why I am doing this and as you'll also read there, volunteers don't always get the appreciation for what they are doing. If they ask for help and I know how it can be solved or where to find the solution, why wouldn't I help them then? A simple "Thank You" afterwards, the appreciation you get already means a lot to me. If more people would take this more seriously, secure their computers and always be careful where they surf, what links to click and what they download, then I'm sure that the internet would be a bit more safer place for anyone.ģrd. and that's what I try to teach these people.

Some will never learn as I explained here - or don't see the need why to secure their computer as explained here. Many don't take this serious either and always think that this won't happen to them - until it happens (sooner as they think).Īnother lesson learned I hope. They don't even know what an Antivirus/Firewall is, why it is needed and what the dangers of the internet are. Unfortunately many don't know anything about this.
FORMS TO GO MALWARE HOW TO
I don't really see this as a problem, as long as they know how to secure their computer. As I said, many people still don't know much about computers. I don't want to give instructions/solutions if I don't understand them in the first place, because that wouldn't make sense and I learn nothing from this.Ģnd. Next time if you see the same problem again, then you already know how to deal with this - something you've learned and remembered. In case of malware removal - it's a challenge to find the loading points, what it changes/modifies, how it behaves in general - and based on that you can give the proper instructions how to remove it and restore whatever it has broken/modified. Without a cause, you can't offer a proper solution either. It's always a challenge to find and understand the cause in the first place. Fixing computers is like solving a puzzle for me, to find the cause and try different solutions.

I love to learn and want to learn something new everyday.

Well, there are several reasons why I am doing this.ġst.
FORMS TO GO MALWARE FREE
Many already asked me why I am doing this, offering almost all of my free time as a volunteer to help other people online. Yes, a lot of patience is needed in many cases. Hence, even when detailed instructions are given, with screenshots/whatever included, some still have problems to perform the steps properly. "Step by step" instructions are really needed since many people don't know much about computers and without detailed instructions, they could make things worse. I used to guide people via mail as well, but quit that since I don't have the time for that anymore. This mainly happens via forums and newsgroups.
FORMS TO GO MALWARE WINDOWS
As many of you know (or don't know), I guide people with removing malware from their computers, or help them with other Windows issues not related with malware.
