Pop up saying I need to download an Antivir program
« on: December 11, 2009, 11:04:22 AM »
About twice a day I've been getting a pop up saying I need to download an antivir program through install.exec. It's saying I have 95 trojans and some worms in my computer and to run this software. I already have Norton Antivir and Spybot Search and Destroy and it's not catching any of these viruses. Has anyone else seen this? My son has been playing free games online could it be from that?

Uninstall spybot. Download and run MalwareBytes or SuperAntispyware. Are the definitions in NAV current? If so, run a full scan with NAV.
