dont download anything most of the programs try to mess you up more
if there is a shortcut for the rogue program then follow these steps
1. shut down your computer and start it in safe mode with networking
2. when you get on, right click the shortcut and click on "open file location"
3. delete everything in the file and then delete the file itself
4. goto "my computer" and go to uninstall/delete a program and make sure the rogue program is not listed
5. good luck this worked for me
It’s a rogue antivirus program. Don’t pay for it. Restart your computer in safe mode with networking and download anti-malware software to remove the infection.
you’ve been naughty with your mouse again, shame is you.
take you pc and throw it in the snow bank, then buy a new sparkly one.This works for me.
hey, what’s the name of the virus, you can find some removal instrutions and keep them in a word, and then do the removal at safe mode, if you know the name it will help, you search how to guide remove+virus name, this works for me, good luck
