help for possible virus
good day to all,
last night, thursday, i started to get these pop up "warnings" from my alleged anti virus/anti spyware, so i figured it was the phony pop ups that wanted to me to click yes; i never did, but, anytime i tried to open my own security programs, explorer, or any folder, it would open briefly, then close & another pop up would surface. i have a quick scan run every morning, using mse, i run a full scan w/ mse, once every 1-2 weeks, i keep spyware blaster updated & run ccleaner often. i could not log off last night, via start menu, so i shut it down from the tower. i started it this morning & same thing, so i restarted it, via safe mode & restored to wed. when all was fine. now, i ran the mse quick scan after logging in the safe mode, no threats were found. so, 1, do i just keep running in the restored mode, or do i try & find the virus ? thanks for any/all, ia -- Dallas.....
