Useful program while removing infections....

A very useful little program is Filemenu Tools from Lopesoft because it contains a very good shredder, with which you can destroy infected files as you are deleting them.


Here's what its window looks like, and when you first install it, everything on that list will likely be checked, meaning you want to add those items to your right-click menu.
You most likely don't want to do that, so you need to uncheck everything you don't want added to the right-click menu in Windows Explorer. As you see above, the only two items that I have added to my right-click menu from this extensive list are the ones for "Configure Filemenu Tools" which lets you change your choices, and the one for the military-strength shredder, which I think is worth its weight in gold. So before you go hunting infected files to eliminate, get this and have it on your right-click menu.
Then you can shred the bad stuff and be sure it's gone.
