to make sure the computer is clean, you need to check it through an analysis tool, they are now very much possible through Kaspersky.

To make sure there are few hints such as, when you open new tab on your browser there isnt any ads popping up, check if there is any weird program installed, your pc fast and doesnt have problem with opening a program.

The following can help you keep your computer clean

Make sure that your computer hard drive is clean. Download a software called Cleaner or Tuneup Utilities. It will help keep your computer a lot cleaner

Don't download software from just any website. Make sure that the website is trusted, and even if you do download something--and find it useless--make sure you delete it from your computer.

Using programs to keep your computer clean is not the exact right idea. It uses a lot of space and also can cause system errors. Instead try using the tools that Windows has given you:


Run Disk Cleanup once a week to remove unnecessary (temporary files) files

Run Disk Defragmenter to defrag your hard disk once a month (you don't need to overdo it). Defragment after deleting some files and emptying the Recycle Bin.

Defragment before installing new programs so they will not get fragmented in case there are gaps in the hard drive media when it would be installed.

Keep your computer safe from viruses by making sure that you use a safe web browser. After all, prevention is better than cure. Research shows that Internet explorer is more prone and vulnerable to attacks from hackers than any other web browser. Try using Firefox and adding McAfee Site Adviser to it if you wish

I use also CCleaner, but a few months ago there was also a problem with Ccleaner. So it is important that everyone use the latest updated version of CCleaner.

Well first question is did you visit any websites that you should't in perfect world? like torrents sites and so on. If you have some craked software on your pc, there is big change you may have a keylogger of some sort on your pc. To make your pc clean is not that easy, even clean install might not help. So if you planning on investing 10K+ I would suggest buy a new cheap laptop, with official software and you will only use it to trade and access reputable exchange sites and buy encryption software so all your data will be encrypted. This will reduce speed of your laptop a lot so it would not be good to play games but it will be very secure. This is what big IT firms do on their laptops that they give to their workers.

If you can afford to get fresh laptop, you could get a fresh hard drive and do the same, or simple follow what other have said here, clean your pc with malwarebytes, ccleaner defrager and so on. Hope it helps Smiley
