I usually use Netscape but my son went to Internet Explorer and an error message popped up and now I have this winfixer junk on my computer. Norton removes it or says it does but if Internet Explorer is opened then this comes right back. I can use Netscape no problems but not Internet Explorer. Is it possible to get this off? It was never downloaded just popped up and won’t leave.
I understand. The netscape version I am using has both foxfire and internet explorer on it. I use the foxfire option. However some sites will not respond with netscape and end up having to use IE. The first person that responded. Forgive me but how do I know your site is also safe when this winfixer keeps trying to get me to download things too. Can you calm my fears?

Don’t be harsh on your son, but tell him to never use Internet Explorer whenever possible. Internet explorer is like a wide open door that allows spyware, adware, and viruses waltz onto your system. Dump internet explorer and install the Firefox web browser on your machine.
The winfixer bar is probably spyware, so download, install, and run a scan with Spybot Search and Destroy:
