  • Computer Guys: Help I have a virus!

    Its some fake System Defragmenter. I wasn't even on a porn site! I have posted screenshots below and it is restarting my computer every once in a while. What should I do? Any trustworthy spyware I should buy that would take care of it? Screenshots below:

    These 3 icons are new:



    This is the fake "System Defragmenter" that keeps running automatically



    This is in my programs list. No way to uninstall:



    Guys any help would be very much appreciated...

    Try Malware Bytes then Avast.

    If you can't get the MBAM file to load try to rename it and run again.

      I swear by Trend Micro. I have never had a problem in 3 years with it. The closest thing to a problem was it was considering pokerstars a threat and wouldn't let me connect until I changed some settings

        I have that one and it took care of an issue I had long ago. Haven't had another issue since.

        Grinder, make sure it run it until no threats are find. The thing about spyware is there are layers per say. The first search might only find one, but there may be more once that first one is peeled off.

            I ended up getting the one my girlfriend has that has worked great on her computer. It was $10 for a year of service. I can't remember the name of it and I won't see it until I get home tonight.

            Anyway it seemed to clear it up very nicely. Ran it a few times after everything was removed and I got 3 more clean scans. It just pisses me off that I look at so much porn and its an article about Brette Favre that gives me the virus! :retard:
