A security module interfaces with a set of infection repair modules. Each repair module can perform a specific repair of an infection. Some of the repair modules utilize context information about the computer, such as the availability of a non-infected backup file. Further, the repairs performed by some repair modules are fine-grained while repairs of other repair modules are coarse-grained. The security module identifies malicious software infecting a computer and generates an infection object for each infection. The security module selectively routes the infection objects to the repair modules. In response, the repair modules provide repair objects representing repairs that the repair modules can perform on the infection. The repair objects have scores describing their thoroughness and complexity. The security module ranks the repair objects based on their scores and selects certain repairs for repairing the malicious software infections.
