truth is, none of the programs will probably get rid of the malware on your PC. Theres a much more effective method to removing malware than anti-virus software, and I don't mean reformatting the hard drive.. However, its next to impossible to do anything on a computer that is infected with malware.. Always, always, always pull the hard drive and hook it to a clean PC to do your malware removal. Any other way is a waste of time, IMO. Anyways, malware removal software is only the first step. Nearly 100% of the time that I do malware removal on a moderately infected PC, I find several, if not dozens of extra files that are active malware on the PC even after scanning.
