my PC has been affected by virus. This is my guess only. I have 80 GB hard disk and 1 Gb RAM. It’s a Pentium processor. I have five partitions in total including C drive. I had huge data in all the drives. Almost all the drives were full. Sad thing is after the recent restart, I am just seeing all drives as empty. Size and free space both are same. I can open the drives too. Even if I search some files, the results are not appearing. C drive is intact and all the documents too. I am very much worried. Can anybody please help? I cannot afford to lose the data. It’s simply precious with all the photos and other documents of decade period.

I am using computers since past 10 years for home only and using AVG and Avast antivirus. I used to get lot of comments from my friends telling that the system will crash if there are two antivirus in the same computer and when both are active simultaneously. I have not spotted anything upfront till now. But recently after updating Avast antivirus to latest version my PC has become dead slow. Now I am thinking to have only one antivirus. Can anybody suggest on the same? It is to home usage and has to be free and less size so that my computer can run faster than now. Thanks

The worldwide accepted antivirus, Avast may be a boon for many of its happy users but I am way too much irritated with it since a few days ago. I had inserted one of my friends USB Pen drive in my PC and since then it always says “Malicious file found” even if the computer is ideal. Why does it happen? And if I leave my pc scanning the antivirus is not able to locate any malicious files. How to fix this?
