Hi all,
I have a Winxp pro pc running ie7 and I was on a website that asked for ActiveX permission to look at a video and when I clicked ok to allow the ActiveX software to install I was taken to a website for “VirusProtect Pro” and the adware was installed on my computer. I have an icon in my windows taskbar that looks alot like the shield for Windows Definder but it flashes between a redshield with a white X in teh venter and a blue shield with a questionmark in it and then every so oftern I get a popup bubble that says that my computer is infected with spyware and to click the icon to download updated software to remove it.
When you click the icon it takes you to the VirusProtect Pro website so you can purchase there software. Does anyone know how I can get this off of my computer?
I have “McAfee Security Center”, “Advanced Spyware Remover”, “xp AntiSpy”, “Spyware Terminator” “EX Cleaner” and “Abexo Free Registry Cleaner” installed on my computer and have run them all but nothing has removed this adware yet!
Please help.
Thanks in advanced
