A good antivirus is Avast, I personally recommend it as it prevents malicious websites from appearing before the browser sees it.
-
@TheUnkownBlade Ugh, that virus is horrid. It tries to block the internet, right? Try ending the process in task manager and running whatever antivirus you have, for this one I recommend Ad-Aware free or Malwarebytes', but whatever you have SHOULD be good if it will run with the virus.
-
@TheUnkownBlade Yeah I have the same problem! It's fake right? Because it keeps popping up time after time
-
Malwarebytes will remove anything.
-
The way I can tell is that they pop out of no where. I'm dealing with a fake antivirus right now actually it's called vista home security 2012. It came out of nowhere

@DylanBStringer91 thanks for watching! I reccomend VIPRE Premium Antivirus and MalwareBytes to remove it! Two very easy programs! VIPRE is new and great I purchased it myself. Run them both. MalwareBytes is free VIPRE is 30day.
