Panda Virus Online Scan

Chances are that if you have been browsing the internet lately, or even at all, you have probably had a run in with a computer virus or some other type of malicious program that is harmful to your PC. If you haven't, well you are one of the lucky ones.

Spyware and viruses can infiltrate your computer a few ways. You could have visited a website where malicious programs were lurking and downloaded a file that contained spyware or a virus. These are generally referred to as Trojans because the malicious program hides in a seemingly harmless file that you download. Once you open the file or install the application, the spyware or virus secretly plants itself in your computer and starts doing damage. Emails and email attachments are another way you can pick up a malicious program such as a virus on your computer. Always know who is sending you the email, and if you are still not sure if the attachment or email is legitimate, give the person that sent you the email a call, if you know him or her, to verify that the email is harmless.

Panda Security offers an online virus scan for your computer. What you do is go to their website, or you can do a search for panda virus online scan and click on the first result, or one of the url's that has Panda security in it. You will need to download a plug in for your web browser in order to complete the search.

Although the search is free, the removal of the virus and or malware is not.
