41. Removing Malware from Your System
Malware can affect your system in many different ways and the BitDefender approach
depends on the type of malware attack. Because viruses change their behavior
frequently, it is difficult to establish a pattern for their behavior and their actions.
There are situations when BitDefender cannot automatically remove the malware
infection from your system. In such cases, your intervention is required.
If you cannot find your problem here, or if the presented solutions do not solve it,
you can contact the BitDefender technical support representatives as presented in
chapter Support (p. 236).
41.1. BitDefender Rescue CD
BitDefender Rescue CD is a feature included in most BitDefender installation CD's
that allows you to scan and disinfect all existing hard drives before your operating
system starts. It can also help you save data from your compromised Windows PC
to a removable device.
If you don't have a BitDefender Rescue CD, you can download it in the form of an
ISO image from this location:

Download the .iso file and burn it to a CD or DVD using a tool of your choice.
