how to remove win32 sality



Do you think your system is too slow and certain applicatons seems really slow ? Do you know what the problem is ? Most probably the cause will be Win32:sality - Win32:Sality is a polymorphic virus that infects Win32 executable files.I has also certain features of trojans.

As said it affects the .exe files usually and causes system slowdown, In worst cases many important features like taskmanager, regedit, gpedit and msconfig shows very low response rate and eventually the scenario worsens to a state where won't even be able to install an antivirus software. Here is a simple method by which you can eliminate this virus.

Let us see how to remove the Infection :

1.You have to boot from a Windows Disk and install a fresh copy of windows into your C - Drive (Make sure you format the drive before you install).

2.Once the Windows installation is finished,install avast antivirus(it's free,however you have to pay for the professional editions).

3.Select boot scan option in avast and restart your PC.

4.Now rest back and see how avast identifies the infected files, choose the delete infected fiels options and the avast will incinerate all the infected files (Boom!).

5. I suggest now it would be much safer if you format the windows again and reinstall a fresh copy, so that you don't have to worry much...

Whola... Everything is done and you are free from the W32:Sality
