Default Yayyy my first virus.

So I got my first virus ATM, it's one that disguises itself as an anti virus program (it's called system tools) so yeah... Pretty excited, and just wanted to share the news with you guys <3

Since you know what it does and what it calls itself, you could just google how to remove it yourself without an anti-virus.

Default Re: Yayyy my first virus.

thank you for the program does the free pro really work? like do I have to do a survey and it gives me it, or is the basic free just as good?

I have just resolved my issue and now have control over my computer again
the tutorial I used is http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/viru...ve-system-tool

The Free Pro is just a trial.

The Free version is just as good at detecting and removing viruses as Pro, and "Free pro" which is just a monthly trial of the pro is exactly the same as the pro..just only for month.

So, I just use the Free version in XP.

Yay for Linux being more secure. <3
