Do you have a strange new spyware removal program called SaveSoldier on your computer? Is it harassing you with pop-ups and virus infection warnings? Well big surprise, it’s a trap. SaveSoldier is just another in the long list of rogue spyware programs that appear legit, when in fact, it is the program causing your computer damage. This virus can steal your credit card information, so you must act fast to remove it.

How Did I Get SaveSoldier?

Well, most unlucky users get SaveSoldier through a security hole or a trojan running on a questionable website. You could have also received the virus in a corrupted file that you downloaded, such as an mp3, video, or even an image. Myspace and Facebook can also pass viruses, through links or scripts.

How Do I Know That I’m Infected?

Other than the obvious pop-ups and fake warnings annoying you from your taskbar, you could have SaveSoldier and additional viruses if you have any of the following symptoms:

* Crashing browser
* Blue Screen of Death
* Slow Computer Performance
* System Freezes
* Lots of Pop-Ups
* Hijacked Search Engine Searches
* Strange New Icons and/or Background Wallpaper

How Do I Remove SaveSoldier?

There are two ways. The manual way and the automatic way.

The manual method involves blocking the savesoldier.com website, deleting all savesoldier files, and removing all registry keys in the HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE folder with the SaveSoldier name.

The problem with manual removal is that if you make one small mistake, or if you delete 99% of the files and miss just 1%, the virus will mutate and recreate itself when you reboot your computer. For this reason I always use an automatic removal tool.

How To Automatically Remove SaveSoldier:

The automatic way is so much easier, and it additionally provides support and future protection against threats like this one. I can’t stand seeing people use infected, slow computers. When someone tells me they have a virus such as this one, I direct them to the Spyware Review website, they download Spyware Doctor or Paretologic Anti Virus PLUS, and I usually don’t hear from them again (which is a good thing!)

So having said all that, head over to the site, download a scanner and find out how to remove SaveSoldier once and for all.
