How to Remove Adware/Adware.gen8 - Uninstall the Fake Spyware Easily

Adware/Adware.gen8 is new badware that is attempting to trick Windows 7 users into purchasing phony software that can result in a barrage of Trojan virus attacks and possibly, at worst, identity theft. This fake application is being spread at a rapid pace at the moment, and must be removed before your PC is compromised.

This spyware is normally installed onto your PC via flash videos or video codecs. A user will unknowingly install a codec to watch a video, and the codec is actually a Trojan that hides deep in your system. What are sure to follow are symptoms such as a dreadfully slow computer, continual pop-ups, and browser redirects.

To get rid of this virus, you have a couple of options. You can edit your PC registry manually, or you can download software designed to remove threats such as this one and protect your PC for the long haul. If you fancy yourself an IT expert, then you can attempt a manual removal.

You will have to access the infected DLL and LNK files in your HKEY_CURRENT_USER folder and HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SOFTWARE/ folders and scout out all related file names. You will then have to delete all related processes and system files. You have to take great care and caution, because editing the wrong file in your registry can render your system unbootable.

Because of the risks associated with manual removal, I choose automatic removal. It is easy, it works, and it protects the PC into the future. Adware/Adware.gen8 will not be the last virus to crash the internet, there will be many more like it, and so you have to actively protect yourself as you download files and as you surf websites.

Are you fed up with viruses like this one? Remove Adware/Adware.gen8 today and save your PC as well as your peace of mind!
