Avast Rescue DiskFree rescue disk with Avast anti-virusTODAY'S BEST DEALS VISIT WEBSITEReasons to buy+Avast free software+Easy to set up+Simple to useReasons to avoid-Requires AvastThe Avast Rescue Disk isn't a standalone product, as much as a service existing Avast customers can access from whichever Avast anti-virus or internet security package they are using.If you don't have Avast then don't worry - you can simply download a free version of Avast anti-virus software and use that.First of all, you will need either a blank CD (presuming your PC has a CD writer) or a USB stick with 500MB of free space. Then you've put those into your machine, double-click on your Avast icon on your desktop, or click once from your active tray.When your Avast active panel has come up, click the left-hand setting "Protection", then click through the "Virus Scans" option that is presented. The rescue disk link will be somewhere in that section, perhaps standing alone to the right.Once you've clicked through that, select either CD or USB as your preferred option, then the correct drive, then the rescue disk should begin to record to your media.Afterward, shut down or restart your PC with the media present, and use whichever keys are required to bring up the Boot Menu. From there select your media, and the rescue disk option should come up. Select that, and then leave it to run. You can select for the rescue disk to "Fix "automatically" any malicious files that are found, or else select to manually review any results. All in all, it's a reasonably straight-forward and painless feature to set up and run.(Image credit: Kaspersky)2.
