This just happened. I have stopped visiting sites where I have the possibility of picking up a virus. About 3 or 4 days ago I began to get a warning I have a trojan or something to that effect. It's been so long since this has happened that I think that it's a fake. Yet my memory is so bad about the proper procedures to check I need help. I used to know this stuff like the back of my hand lol. Okay, let's start from the beginning. I was on Facebook or should I say scambook and I saw something about somebody who had passed away. Like a celebrity. I clicked it and immediately it attacked. I have gotten so many of these before I just shut it down and restarted and it was gone just like usual. A short time later I started getting messages that said my subscription was out and I needed to order an up-to-date for protection. Well, People I only use Windows Defender so I haven't had any other virus protection for 7 yrs with no problems. I then went to Windows Defender and ran it and it says I am clean yet this dumb ass so-called virus is supposedly still trying to steal my barely there money. I just wanna know what tool do I need and where can I get it to root this damned fucker off my machine? I would be ever so indebted to who ever.
Oh by the way Penguin you sure do look suave there in that pix that Piglo has of you!
