THis program Winweb security showed up on my computer. I don't remember downloading this and neither does my husband. It is not in the "add/remove program" section. When I want to try to stop it from beginning with start up the program wants me to activate it. When I click to not activate, it says "are you shure? You will continue unprotected." It misspells the word "sure" and so I feel it is a virus. I had Norton anti-virus and it was up to date but for the last month I have been unable to open the main console to it. So, I deleted the norton and downloaded Trend Micro Internet Security (since I had already bought it for another computer). I use the Trend Micro to scan the computer and it does not show any viruses. This winweb security continues to pop up while I am using my laptop and wanting me to activate it. I sent an e-mail to them asking how to remove it. I have not heard from them yet. please help
my info:
windows xp version 5.1 service pack 3
Toshiba satellite
1.60 GHz 504 MB of RAM
Intel
