' Wrote:My main hard-drive has been filling up at a fantastic rate. The last time I checked my disk space today I had 60 gigs of free space. Now I have 6. It is constantly filling up, and, I'd like to know if anyone has any decent anti-virus programs for me to use before I can't download anything else due to lack of space.

Halp plos.

Edit: Wrong forum section >.<, I'll go ask a mod to move this to Software and Hardware

Comodo Internet Security Premium seems to be very good, it's what I'm using right now.

Get hold of Malwarebytes Anti-malware asap also.

Both of these programs are free.

Make sure both programs are updated, then get off the 'Net.

Whatever is filling up your HD is either generating files or downloading stuff from the internet, so you need to take your PC offline.

Before you run either program, backup anything important on your PC.

Start Comodo up and let it do a scan. This will take a few hours.
Rather it *might* take a few hours.
Mine does a full scan once a week and it takes about 3.5 hours, but I have a fairly large amount of HD capacity.

This should hopefully report and clean most viruses on your system.

Reboot your PC then run Anti-malwarebytes, whichever scan you want. The 'fast scan' mode should pick up any major nasties and give them the flick.

Reboot the PC again and run a scan with both Comodo and Anti-malwarebytes.
With a bit of luck you *should* come up clean, fingers crossed.
