How to remove computer worms

A computer worm, such as the Conficker worm, is like a computer virus, but it can spread by itself without your interaction.

If you think you have a computer worm, use one or both of these tools to scan your computer and help get rid of it:

1- Windows Live safety scanner
2- Malicious Software Removal Tool


Note: If your computer is infected with the Conficker worm, you might not be able to connect to these or other recovery tools.
