Virus Removal – The Race of Malware Developers and Security Software

Even if you are protected with best security suites and have made it a point to regularly update the malware database, you cannot be absolutely sure about your PC Security. The reason is the basic mechanism in which present day security software operate.
Their developers first detect a malware threat, then find its signature, then they develop protection against it and release the updates and then wait for the users to download these updates and get them installed onto their system. This time lag is enough for the malware developers to spread their evil designs across the globe and thousands of poorly guarded computers get infected just because they are hooked onto the Internet.

The Need of Portable Virus Removal Tools

Today’s Internet security battle field witnesses both way attacks. On one side, security software attack viruses and spyware to get them removed from the victim’s computer, but on the other hand, malware also attack the security software. They try to disable their functionality, they block the ability of security software to update itself, they change the browser homepages, they modify your hosts files to block your access to many security software vendor websites and forums and many such actions.
You never know, when a new malware blocks all your channels to get information about itself and your ability to fight against it.
In such a situation, if you have a disaster recover plan, then you might feel safe.

Since these USN Drives are not hooked to your computer, when the malware has corrupted your important system files, there are chances that you may be able to recover your system.
