Free Malware Removal Software Cleans Infected Systems
The battle against viruses and malware has reached another level viruses have always been a problem on PCs and lately smart devices but a new type of malware called TDSS has now become a bugbear for owners. Most viruses and malware can be picked up by normal anti-virus software but TDSS is a rootkit: it changes system software to hide malware files and render itself undetectable. This is where Kaspersky TDSSKiller comes in.
Getting Rid of Rootkit Malware
Anti-virus software detects and stops viruses and malware before they are able to damage the system and corrupt files. However while some anti-virus software is able to clean an infected computer TDSS malware uses the computer's own systems to cloak its presence. This means that it will be undetectable to most anti-virus software in some cases TDSS will corrupt the program itself. The latest version of Kaspersky TDSSKiller will run on an infected system and will detect and remove TDSS malware.
Using the Software
Kaspersky TDSSKiller has proved itself very effective in tests and it is easy for those with some technical expertise to use. TDSS malware would prevent previous versions running but Kaspersky have solved this with the latest version of its product.

Fabulous cure.
Fabulous cure. Spent from 6am until 5 pm today trying to get Dell T5400 to boot to windows 7. Kept getting BSOD with iastorv.sys error.Found reference to Kaspersky TDSSKiller as possible cure. Downloaded and ran it. 10 minutes later (or less) I am typing this review from the previously infected computer. It is loaded with Norton 360 and has been for years, but I think a change is in store to Kaspersky's products.
Pros:
fast easy no install...good for Safe Mode which doesn't allow installs
Cons:
none More

Amazing.
I was infected with a Google redirect virus and had tried 5 different anti-virus/anti-malware scans which did not detect anything at all, so I was at the very end of my rope. I tried TDSSKiller as a last ditch effort thinking it was going to be like all the others but it fixed my problem completely! My computer was super slow from the virus so each of the other scans would take about 2-3 hours but TDSSKiller was very quick to download, and the scan took only a couple of minutes before it found the rootkit and promptly removed it. My computer is now up and running smoothly and seems to be even faster than it was before the malware! Totally awesome! More

The app worked for me.
I used it and was able to find/eliminate a rootkit that my antivirus software, and HouseCall online, had failed to detect. After running TDSSKiller (which found something other than TDSS), the "blue screen of death" problem I'd been having went away.
Pros:
Extremely fast scan that runs in either Safe Mode, which is what I had to do, or normal mode. More

Saved my computer.
I caught a very intrusive adware that kept displaying ads no matter where I clicked. It even hut down my system with the blue screen each time I tried to remove it using Avast and Malwarebytes. Finally I reinstalled my whole OS and formatted my hard drive. Then installed a new copy of Windows 7. All should have been well right? Wrong, as soon as I booted up the new system and installed Avast it strated warning me again about the malware. I tried TDSKiller and within a few seconds it removed the malware and asked to reboot. I thought after rebooting I would once again get the warnings as this was the malware that survived a complete OS reinstall. But since the TDSKiller scan and removal it hasn't come back.
Pros:
Everything
Cons:
None More
