KarmaTsunami Posted May 17, 2009 Report Share Posted May 17, 2009 So, clicking along through websites, I clicked on some link before I had the chance to realise what I was doing. Long story short, it seemed to download this virus. I got rid of the virus and no longer have WinPC icons/pop ups and have run a few scans and nothing more is coming up with that, so yay.However, while using Internet Explorer, every third site or so a 'Warning' appears in the browser saying that if I want to continue I should download WinPC or continue to the website unprotected. Short of reinstalling Internet Explorer, how do I stop this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigsby Posted May 19, 2009 Report Share Posted May 19, 2009 Oh man, I got this on my computer at work, was a total pain in the arse. In the end they just gave me a new computer and took the old one away to be wiped or somthing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
