Yes, there are non-scanning solutions. In fact, there are many ways to rid your computer of adware besides using scanning software. You can always use the Restore option in Windows. Other software programs that work to eliminate adware or even spyware on your computer include restoring the image on your C partition. This sometimes may involve splitting your hard drive so there is more than one partition. Partition Magic is good for this. This program will take care of your partitions without you losing any data that is present in the partition. When the program creates the second partition, it will format that partition and then take a clean snapshot of your first partition, and place this on the second partition. Then when you should happen to get any adware program, you simply use the second partition to boot from and restore that partition to your first partition. [br] |

Many Internet users are unaware that most anti-virus programs quickly become out of date as new and more sophisticated viruses enter the world of cyber-space everyday.
Anti-virus software must be consistently updated in order to remain effective. In some cases it is necessary to buy an entirely new program to help keep your computer virus free.
Most anti-virus programs allow you to update the original program by downloading the newest and most recent updates to their virus protection system. These updates can then provide protection for your computer against new strands of viruses waiting to infect your computer.
