How to Check if Your Computer is Infected ot Not

In my previous post "How to Know if You Are Infected with RATs or Keyloggers" I've been writing about methods to find out when you are infected with a RAT or Keylogger, without using any complex tools. Here i will show you how to know if you are infected or not from any malware. These ways are very simple, but I guarantee you to 80% that you will clean your system using these methods.

Lets start:
First Method: Checking the startup

1. Open the "Run" by pressing "windows key + r" or go to "Start", and then select "Run".
2. Type 
msconfig
3. A window will come up. Go to the "Startup" Tab.
4. Now as you can see, you have the list of all the applications that start with Windows. You can find almost every RAT/Stealer/Keylogger/bot...
5. Search for some file like "
Stub.exe" ,"server.exe" ,"s3rver.exe"... This are the most used names.

If you found one uncheck it, and click on "Save". Reboot your computer, and you have successfully prevented the malware(s) to startup with the system.

Second Method:
 Checking the Registry

In the registry every application saves its configuration, of course malware too. Malware often uses the Registry to startup, and Save the options.

1. Open the "Run" (Start -> Run)
2. Write 
regedit.exe
3. Search In The 
HKey_Current_User (HKCU) for the Software Folder.
4. There will be a list with the programs. If you are infected, you'll find something like 
Server or Stub, some sh*t like that.
5. If you found one, delete that entry (Right Click -> Delete Entry).
Third Method

1. Install 
Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware. It's really the best anti-malware. Check for updates and make a full scan.
