We are pleased to provide this comprehensive section on computer viruses, an ever present threat for all computer owners.

The panel at right, courtesy of Trend Micro, describes the current computer virus threats worldwide and their severity. The panel also gives access to HouseCall, a FREE! online tool from Trend Micro that detects computer viruses as well as spyware and malware.

Please consult the Trend Micro Virus Encyclopaedia for information about a specific computer virus.

If your computer suffers the misfortune to become infected with a computer virus, many leading anti-virus software manufacturers including Symantec, Grisoft and Avast provide FREE! virus removal tools.

For the everyday protection of home computers we recommend AVG Anti-Virus Free, a free anti-virus protection tool from GRISOFT. AVG Anti-Virus Free is an award-winning product that is updated almost daily with new virus definitions, so now there is no excuse for not being protected.
