pencoed hunter 7 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 Hi I have AVG there really good you can get the free edition here http://download.cnet.com/AVG-Anti-Virus-Fr...cdlPid=11009475 Or get the full version which is better but I think its £40 a month i got the full for free from torrents. Plus nod32 is a good anti virus to but I have been through loads and so far AVG is the best I haven't had any problems with viruses ;) If you get any problems just ask Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Strong Stuff 2,171 Posted March 20, 2009 Report Share Posted March 20, 2009 STOP RIGHT THERE!!!! Is it saying that you need to pay for the program to remove the viruses? "Antivirus 2010" ? The virus is called spyware monster FX Don't do anything with that pop up. The so called scanner itself is a virus, are you on Windows XP? I got rid of it for a mate off his PC, he likes to look at porn too ............. the way I did it was with Spybot: Download it here: http://www.safer-networking.org/en/download/index.html That should sort you out!
