Norton Power Eraser is a last-resort, extreme tool that may help you cleanup special types of security risks. If a program has hijacked your computer and you have tried your Norton product and the Norton Bootable Recovery Tool without success, try Norton Power Eraser. This tool focuses on security risks that impersonate legitimate applications and are known as "scareware" or "rogueware" or "scamware". Norton Power Eraser uses more aggressive technologies than your Norton product, hence there is a risk that it will flag good programs for removal. You should carefully review the scan results page before removing files.

Gets your computer back up and running if it becomes so infected that it won't work properly or even start. If you are unable to remove threats using the regular scanner in your Norton product or if your computer will not start, use the Norton Bootable Recovery Tool to get the problem resolved fast.
