Backdoor Removal
By Matthew Burns






Suggest a topic or article headline you would like the author to write about.


When a computer is infected with Malware, backdoor removal is a high priority. A backdoor is a type of program that opens your computer up to access to other people over the Internet. These are considerable security risks, as the uses that these people put your computer too are usually damaging. Either to you personally, in the case of stolen personal details or credit card numbers, or to other people.

When hackers use your computer to attack another system, it leaves evidence that will make it look like you took part in the attack, even when you are completely unaware of what is happening.

Backdoors usually get onto your computer when you run a trojan horse on your machine. This is a piece of software that appears to be something that you want, but is in reality a risk. In the past, this has often been disguised as knock of software, or free x rated materials. These are usually infected, so you should avoid them like the plague!

Manual backdoor removal can be very difficult, as the software that installed the backdoor also probably have also installed a number of backups and fail safes to prevent the removal of the Malware.

This is why it is important to have access to good quality security software. The best software prevents infections from trojans, viruses and Spyware in the first place, and also helps you to remove them when they occur.
