Bleeping Computer (abbreviated as BC) is an Internet forum and computer user community founded by Lawrence Abrams in 2004[1]. It is also a resource site for answering computer security and technical questions. As a free site, services are like many other forums, including malware and rootkit cleanup of infected computers and removal instructions on rogue anti-spyware programs.[2] The site has been featured in the Microsoft Expert Zone Community[3] and several computer magazines, as well as many other computer resource sites. Bleeping Computer, as of early 2008, has more than 240,000 members, currently contains over 1.1 million member posts, and its Tutorial Section has received over 15 million page views.

Spyware Removal

Bleeping Computer offers free spyware removal help to users by volunteers trained to use anti-malware tools such as HijackThis and MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware. There are also self-help spyware removal guides and tutorials available that are open to the public.[2]

Malware Removal Training Program

Bleeping Computer offers a malware removal-training program[4], where members can register. Administrators grant access to candidates for the Study Hall, where teachers train students anti-malware techniques, such as analyzing and removing malware. The cleaning procedures and removal training specify the use in today's anti-malware communities, such as Bleeping Computer, WhatTheTech.com, MalwareRemoval.com, TechSupportForum.com, etc.
