Manual and Automatic Removal Methods?

Manual removal method that you can execute to remove Cheap-o from browsers are secure and not so difficult as you may think. Possibly, only automatic method is easier. These instructions are very effective since the browser vendors worry about your right to download and delete any browser add-ons. This method will give you a chance to uninstall all the undesired browser extensions and pop-ups will not annoy you any more. But at times, using this way of removal users notice that the adware is installed again in the browser and they have to fulfill any other techniques to uninstall it.

Still the manual method that instruct you to delete the files and registry items is the most risk one. If you risk to use this method, in this situation you should remember only one simple rule: do not forget to do the backup of the registry. Also the method should be executed only by the user that realizes what and why he should remove.In the situation if you will remove some folders or registry keys that do not pertain to Cheap-o, then your system will not start next time. Specialists will not be mistaken and can enjoy the force of the manual method.

Yet the most reliable and the most secure way of removal is automatic. Installing any antivirus program that includes Cheap-o in its base of viruses, you will delete the undesired program promptly and the virus will not annoy you any more for the antivirus software will defend your computer hereafter.

Concerning the money that users may spend on the virus removal I should say that some removal techniques are absolutely free of charge, for example manual removal from browsers, manual professional removal (in the case if you will do it by yourselves), free antivirus software and the removal from Control Panel. But not all of them are effective. The information about the effectiveness of these uninstall techniques I illustrate in the table that is called ‘Removal methods statistics’ below. Speaking about the paid techniques of virus removal, I should list the Computer Repair Shop Service and paid Antivirus software.

These methods are the most effective. In spite of the great distinction in the price (Repair Shop service depends on the complication of the issue and may cost up to $300, but paid antivirus costs up to $60) these methods are almost equal in the effectiveness and in the results. I should also mention that paid antiviruses always has support service (often for free) that will solve your problem like in an expensive computer repair shop.

I also want to provide you with some useful actions that will protect your laptop from Cheap-o and other malicious objects in the future:

You should not overlook the checkbox (usually small letters somewhere in the corner) that is responsible for the download of any other applications. You should uncheck this checkbox.
• Do not open any dangerous websites (porn, for adults, websites of unknown free software), they usually contain some worms or other kinds of malicious programs.
• Do not use torrents or other sharing web services, because you can download adware instead of the needed file.
• Do not open file send per email from unknown users. It can be a virus.
