I need help with my son's computer. He has a web site that keeps popping up and states there is a virus on his compute and he needs to install antivirus 360 to get it off. I understand this 360 is the virus, so how can I get it off his computer?

Thx,
Concern Father

Download and run: Malwarebytes.org (http://malwarebytes.org/)

You may have to get from another computer and copy it to a USB key.

Malwarebytes should take care of it, you can use malwarebytes without purchasing it

I thank you both, I did a scan and the antivirus 360 was still there. As soon as I tried to go online it pops up and gives me the same old story. Here is what malwarebytes found:

What do you suggest?

Follow manual removal instructions

Go to you see this - don't download software
Antivirus 360 Manual Removal Instructions
Antivirus 360 or Antivirus360 :: Antivirus 360 Removal Instructions (http://www.spywareremove.com/removeAntivirus360.html)

seahwk83: I followed the instuctions above. When I do a search I get: Search is complete. There are no results to display. :(

But every time I go online it pops up.

WHAT'S NEXT DOC.:confused:
