How To Get Rid Of Conficker.C Virus

Asked By alonzo smith 40 points N/A Posted on - 04/13/2012

I have an anti-virus on but I only noticed this virus when I made a decision to scan my computer externally using a network. What can I do to get rid of Conficker.C virus without the need to re-format my system? When formatting is the final option, if I transfer the file from the infected disk to another hard disk, will the clean disk be infected as well?

Best approach if you're not a comp savvy is to download Free Conficker Removal Tool to remove infected files. Reformatting would be your last resort as it will erase the contents of your hard drive and re-install every software you had before.
