Combofix:

This a software which is used to remove molested from the computer. The first thing I did to install combofix is copying the installation file in c drive. Then we have to boot the system in safemode. Then we have to go for the c directory and install the combofix. It took me roughly 10 min to install. During the installation it asked me whether install recovery or not. I clicked on no cause it is not useful for me. Then it started to scan for malware. The cleaning of malware is efficient and it took me about 20 minutes for all the process.
