i really dont have any money at all to deal with my computer right now and im afraid of it getting so bad that i cant use it at all but anyways.....
a few minutes ago outta no where some thing popped up saying that i have 38 viruses but the thing that popped up wasnt from anything that i have in my computer and i have never seen it before. then my back ground changed itself, the start thing at the bottom of the screen went aweay and i keep getting all these warning things and i just spent almost 100 dollars not too long ago to get the stuff on my computer for this buit now its "expired"
my back ground says:
warning
youre in danger
your computer is infected with spyware
all you do with your computer is stored forever in your hard disk.
when you visit sites, send e-mails... all your actions are logged, and it is impossible to remove them with standard tools.
your data is sill available for forensics. and in some cases
FOR YOUR BOSS, YOUR FRIENDS, YOUR WIFE, YOUR CHILDREN.
Every site you or somebody even something like spyware, opened in your browsers, with all the images, and all the downloaded and maybe later removed movies or mp3 songs-
ARE STILL THERE and could break your life!
SECURE YOURSELF RIGHT NOW!
REMOVE ALL SPYWARE FROM YOUR PC!!
and i keep getting these virus pop ups from total security 2009 like every 30 seconds.
i kinda feel threatened.
what doesx this mean and how do i fix it?
What operating system are you using? Windows Vista, XP, 2000, 98, Mac operating system of some kind, etc.? Also, do you have a pop-up stopper installed on your computer?
Those messages that you've received may only be ads. But, I don't really know until some questions have been answered that I might ask and also what others might have to ask and say...
windows xp
no i dont think i do
i did but then my computer broke and when i got it fixed everything was gone and i wasnt sure what to do as far as a pop up blocker
idk
idk wat to do
it wont let me download anyhthing and there is really no point in taking it in. i put too much money into this computer and the warrenty is over im guna get a new one maybe in like 6 month... hopefully
but idk what to do iuntil then
i keep getting the protection 2009 whatever thing pop uop like every 30 seconds
the thing that popped up saying that you have 38 viruses a virus/spyware itself. i had almost the same thing when my computer was infected with antivirus 2009 which is a fake antivirus. i had to go through a step by step process to get rid of it. i just googled it and found a site to get rid of it. you can check out these sites on google to find one that gets rid of total security 2009 because it is fake.how to remove total security 2009 - Google Search
before u do that, dowload avira. it's free and it works really well. here is the site to download it Avira AntiVir Personal - FREE Antivirus
also download Avg as someone else suggested above and keep both avg and avira on your computer.
I agree with retsoksirhc, malwarebytes is the way to go for these infections. You'll need to download it (and Avira while you're at it) from another computer and boot your up in safe Mode to install and run them.
