Suppression de virus: La réparation d’ordinateurs plus courante

March 31st, 2011

La plus courante pour le service au plus n’importe quel centre de réparation d’ordinateur appelle à une virus nettoyage ou la suppression. Il ’ s aussi le type de service plus mal exécuté. Un virus bon nettoyage suppose que tout sur le système infecté est ne pas dignes de confiance. Par exemple, vous pouvez trouver le grand site de recherche nommé outlookfreeware et installer l’un de leurs outils, mais dans quelques jours, vous trouverez que quelqu'un payé à l’aide de votre CC inopinément. La moyenne de la fonction, Cependant, assumes that only the obvious symptoms and infected files should not be trusted. This difference can cost you not only more money in further service to fix, but loss of data or identity theft.

The goal with any service performed involving a customer’s data is always the integrity of that data first and foremost. For that reason, any service in which data could be lost should start with a backup of that data. Once we have a backup, we have fewer worries about losing information as part of the cleaning process. We can also access data lost by cleaning or quarantining accurately so a customer can make a decision on whether or not to have further work done to recover infected files. A backup also allows us to passively assess data integrity that has nothing to do with virus infections. For instance, if a hard drive is failing or there are file system errors, the backup process will report these issues.

The windows expansion system and the windows process regulator virus are just some of the different types of nasty programs out there trying to get into your computer every time you log on. The next, and frankly obvious step in the process is the actual removal of the infection. As stated before, any data on the system should be treated as infected and non-trustworthy. This means we need to completely wipe the system disk. This also means we need to reinstall the base operating system. It is this step that other service providers often skip. The reasons they skip this process vary, but usually fall into a few categories.

First, they may elect to not wipe the drive as this may cause data loss. But as we backed up the customer’s data first, this is a non-issue. Secondly, reinstalling an operating system is a time-intensive procedure. A customer may wish to have the cheapest fix, so they may elect to skip the wipe. But why wipe the data at all? La raison la plus importante est de ne s’assurer aucune infection Rootkit ou autres infections de niveau système d’exploitation sont présentes. Un virus bien écrit sera en mesure de cacher ces types d’infections dans les pilotes du système ou un noyau mis à jour le. Une fois un tel système infecté “nettoyé” sans remplacer le système d’exploitation, Il peut remplir de nouveau les fichiers appropriés pour infecter le système ou tout simplement agir comme un cheval de Troie pour rendre le système plus facile à infecter à nouveau. N’oubliez pas, le but est de laisser le client avec un système qu'ils peuvent faire confiance.

Once the system disk has been wiped and the operating system reinstalled, driver and application software must be reinstalled as well. Finally, an updated anti-virus program is installed and the customer’s backup data is scanned with the anti-virus. This leaves a log on the customer’s system of files that were found infected and gives them the ability to trace our work with regard to scanning and cleaning. Once the backup is scanned and cleaned, files are placed in their appropriate locations.

Virus cleaning is among both the most common and simplest procedures in computer service. It is time-intensive compared to other services, but if done correctly, it enables your customer to get back to work confidently and with a minimal loss of important data.
