Norton Power Eraser will take care of any possible malware infection that your current antivirus software can’t get rid of.
This free, standalone app from Norton has been especially designed to remove the most persistent computer viruses, such as scareware and fake security suites. Therefore, Norton Power Eraser features a really powerful, in-depth analysis that can be configured as either Normal or Aggressive.
As it doesn’t require installation, you can set up Norton Power Eraser and have it scanning your system in no time. It’s also a perfect tool to clean USB memory sticks. When the analysis is finished, Norton Power Eraser displays the results and asks you what to do next. It’s here where you should be careful not to tell Norton Power Eraser to remove critical system files.
Fortunately Norton Power Eraser lets you check the File Insight online database to learn more about the file you’re about to erase. Simply double check the information before deleting the file. Regardless, Norton Power Eraser creates a restore point in case something goes wrong.
Norton Power Eraser is a free, standalone security tool that removes aggressive malware from your computer.
