Remove My Disk
Updated on Sunday, January 16th, 2011

Computers are machines like any other. To get the best work out of them, you need to make sure they’re working at top condition. This means you have to do some optimization. One of the best ways to assure that your system is in tip-top shape is to regularly defragment your hard drive.

All computers come with a native defragmenter program, but third-party programs usually have more options and are even faster. However, you need to be careful before installing such programs – hackers have been known to disguise malware under the guise of legitimate programs. An example of this is the malware called “My Disk”.

My Disk may look like a legitimate optimization program but is actually fake. It’s main purpose is to make you believe that your computer is broken – a tactic it uses to convince you to buy its full version. It sneaks into your system via trojans and installs itself without your permission. Afterwards, it starts sending out alerts while blocking legitimate programs from fixing these so-called “errors”. This is all to scare you into believing the scam behind it.

Scareware like My Disk are aimed at producing this result. If you ever see a pop-up from a program that you don’t know about on your computer, the best approach is to think of it as malware and remove it immediately. To learn how to do it, for My Disk especially, read on.

Symptoms Of Infection

• Your computer is acting slow. My Disk slows down your system significantly. This includes starting up, shutting down, playing games, and surfing the web.

• You are getting pestered with pop ups. My Disk infects your registry and uses it to launch annoying pop up ads out of nowhere.

• Searches are redirected or your homepage and desktop are settings are changed. This is a symptom of a very serious My Disk infection.

Dangers Of Infection

Viruses like My Disk will infect your registry and other important system files. If the infection is not treated it can cause a complete collapse of your system.

Some My Disk infections contain spyware and keyloggers which can be used to record sensitive data like passwords, credit card, bank account, and social security numbers. The longer you allow the infection to fester, the greater the chance of identity fraud.
