Recently, users complain that their computer is infected with Rootkit.poweliks"


Since September 12, 2014 I have had Poweliks Trojan ( Rootkit.poweliks ) Virus on my PC. It puts a file called dlhost.exe in my processes and it multiplies until my CPU is almost full, which slows down my computer so much the difficulty level is beyond dial up speed!  I have tried going into safe mode and trying to find and remove it, but I have been unsuccessful in removing it completely. Anybody can help?

In this post, there will be the tips on how to remove Rootkit.poweliks from the computer.

Description of Rootkit.poweliks


Rootkit.poweliks is a malicious Trojan horse which was made to execute a series of commands once it gets inside the system. Once the malicious code is executed on the computer, Rootkit.poweliks will root deeply in your system and begin to activate.
