How-To Perform an Advanced Virus / Malware / Spyware / Adware Removal Method

There many times when the virus, malware, spyware or adware that has infected your computer is impossible to get rid of. Sometimes your computer is unusable and the virus, malware, spyware or adware has hijacked your computer or at least appears to be doing so. If a computer has become so deeply infected with a virus, etc. threat that
is unusable then the only option most people know of is to completely wipe out their computer and start from scratch, aka "Reformat Your Computer", aka "Complete System Recovery" aka "Reinstall Windows". I used to think the same way until several years ago when I was messing around with heavily virus, etc. infected computers at work and tried something out just for the hell of it. It turned out to the best method I have ever used to remove almost any virus, malware, spyware or adware off of any Windows XP, Vista or 7 PC.
This advanced virus, malware, spyware and adware removal method is a bit of work and it will cost some money the first time you perform it (but still cheaper than taking it into a store to remove the viruses). It is very thorough and killer at removing almost all viruses, etc. threats and annoyances.
You will need the following items...
1. A separate Windows PC that is clean of all viruses
2. An external hard disk drive enclosure (this is the only thing you have to buy)
3. The free program "Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware" must be installed on the separate PC
4. The free program "SuperAntiSpyware" must be installed on the separate PC
5. "Kaspersky Anti-Virus" 30-day free trial (or you can buy it if you want but it is not necessary since you only need it for a few hours max) must be installed on the separate PC
6. A Phillips or flathead screwdriver to unscrew your desktop PC case. If you have a laptop you will need a small version of a Phillips or flathead screwdriver
NOTE: You can buy external hard drive enclosures at almost any computer store that sells parts. The largest retail chain being Best Buy (Fry's Electronics if you live in the Western US). I have tested out many brands. So far the best quality brand I have tested is Vantec. I own a Vantec HDD enclosure at home and use 3 of them at work. None of them have ever died or failed me, unlike almost every other brand I have used. Below are links to various ones. You only need to buy one but there are 4 different types depending if you have a laptop, desktop, old and newer.
In the first video below I show you what hard drives look like and I show you one of my hard drive enclosures and how to use it.
