    Will a PC with malware affect all linked accounts?


    So I'm asking on behalf of my friend because she isn't sure and asked me, I'm unsure either so I told her I'd try and find out for her because she gets anxious.So my friend has a Netflix account linked to her email and has let her mum use, her mum has recently said she thinks she has malware/a virus on her PC she uses her daughter's Netflix account on this PC. Now my friend is worrying in case her account is affected by this malware. So I'm basically asking, will malware on a PC that uses a Netflix account affect the email address linked to the Netflix account or does malware/viruses not wor

    I suggest you backup your personalized files first before removing the account.

    1. Press WIN + X keys and click Command Prompt (Admin) from the menu.
    2. Type the following command and press Enter. Replace test with the name of your sister's account. Code:

    Best way to remove problem Malware

    Hi There,

    I am trying to remove a bundle of Malware without success.

    There is a bundle of listed programs which I try to uninstall through the typical Control Panel effort, but they remain listed there:

    Buenosearch Toolbar
    MyPC Backup
    PC Performer
    Speed Test 127
    UnknownFile

    I was looking at this weblink which provides a 5 step process for Buenosearch alone:
    http://malwaretips.com/blogs/remove-bueno-search/

    Not sure how much certain guides can be trusted. One of the first things I read was to download Revo Uninstaller, and I've not heard of it so I'm not sure if it's trustworthy..........

    3. Select add someone else on this PC.
    4. Enter a user name and hit next.
    5. Click on Finish.
    6. Sign out from the current Account and Log into the new account.
    Step 3:
    It could also happen because of network issue. I suggest you to try with different network connection and check if it helps.
