Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP Removal Guide

Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP is a particularly nasty strain of virus and it can have some quite devastating knock on effects on your PC. Strictly speaking this high risk infection isn’t a virus, although it is often mislabeled as one. Whatever you choose to call it, you certainly don’t want it on your computer so let’s take a little closer look at what it is and how it works.

If you keep getting notice from Norton that a high risk "Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP" was detected on your computer then your computer is probably infected with a Trojan horse or similar malware. It attaches itself to some of the files that you have stored on your computer as well as certain programs that you may have downloaded from the internet. The main characteristic of this malware infection is that once it finds a way to infect your PC it will begin to surreptitiously attack your files and probably also monitor network activity in case it's a password stealing Trojan horse.


As mentioned, Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP is not really classified as a regular computer virus with the main difference being that it doesn’t replicate and spread itself to infect other computers or operating systems. It can be a corrupted file or program that you’ve downloaded from the internet or it may be the result of a virus that has already infected you. Such malware infections are also able to steal a PC user’s personal data as well as downloading even more malware onto your machine so it stands to reason that this is one form of malware that you definitely should be protecting yourself from.

Whether you’re concerned about malicious software and viruses or not (and all computer users should be) you should always ensure that your computer has a firewall turned on and that you have a reputable brand of anti-virus software installed on your system. Because malware of all persuasions is constantly being updated by the people that create them this means that anti-virus software is too always being upgraded in response. This means that you should always check for updates and ensure you have the latest version installed with any new patches. But no matter how effective your anti-virus software maybe there is always the chance that Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP may slip through the net – after all that is the way they operate so if you have been infected read on and we’ll take a look at how to remove Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP manually.

One more thing, you should also run your anti-malware software a couple of times to make sure that you have got rid of any remaining components that may still be lurking on your machine. Suspicious.Cloud.7.EP rarely comes as a single module, usually it's a part of more advanced malware.

A Trojan Horse is far more serious than many other forms of malware so if you’ve been infected, stop what you are doing and get rid of it right away! If you have any questions or need help removing this high risk infection, please leave a comment below. Good luck and be safe online!
