Yeah, you definitely Effed up when you downloaded the anti-virus software. I think when you get pop ups and websites like that, THOSE are the actual viruses.
My advice to you as far as that goes is to somehow download AVG anti-virus: http://free.avg.com/us-en/download-avg-anti-virus-free-edition It's the best, IMO. The school I worked at used that software. Actually, I think the entire County does. Of course they use the business whatever edition, but the free works just as well. Once it's downloaded and installed, restart your PC in Safe Mode. It may be best to restart in Safe Mode with Networking and download it then (Because you -CAN'T- have 2 antivirus programs installed at once. Each 1 will think the other is a virus and it'll cause problems). Anyway, whenever you're able to get it, you should start your PC in Safe Mode. Open up your Control Panel and go to ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS and uninstall the program you downloaded. After you do -that- run the AVG scanner. That should fix it. EDIT: Using restore/recovery doesn't necessarily fix anything. It'll take the PC back to an earlier point that worked, but the viruses will still be there. Trust me, I know from experience. I did that and wound up with 1600 viruses on my hard drive and it fried the motherboard. |
