Best Bootable Antivirus Rescue CD To Clean Infected Computer

Here Are Some Best Antiviruses Below

BitDefender Rescue CD

BitDefender is capable of scanning and disinfecting your system at boot time. This is another one of those who states to used only when your system in not booting or is almost inoperable.

Tools included inside are a rootkit scanner, network-vulnerability scanner, partition manager, file recovery tools, wireless network monitor, network diagnostics, and Mozilla’s Firefox browser. When you boot the CD, the software tries to download anti-malware definition updates if the system has an active Internet connection.

Virus Detection is Good and gives you option to choose what to do after threats have been detected.

Kaspersky Rescue Disk

Kaspersky Rescue disk is specially made to scan, disinfect, and restore infected operating system. The official website of Kaspersky states that this software should only be used when the operating system becomes unbootable. Kaspersky doesn’t need much introduction when it comes to defending systems against intrusions. The rescue disk is capable of removing any kind of intrusions and makes your system bootable again.

Graphical User Interface is quite user friendly but sometimes, cleaning enters infinite loop mode and then only option is to unplug power.

Quick Heal Antivirus

This is the only antivirus which comes with an inbuilt boot scanning option. Actually this is one of the things every antivirus should come with. To perform a boot time scan through Quick Heal, you have to follow these steps:

• Update Quick Heal to the latest virus definitions
• Disconnect your computer from all the networks
• Open Quick Heal – Click on Scan – Click on Boot time Scan – Click on Yes to set the Boot Time Scanner – Click on Yes to restart your computer

Quick Heal is faster in scanning compared to above solutions while I doubt about offering complete threat deletion.
