Thanks! I was able to open that with no trouble! I'll do a scan when I get back in a little bit. Should I post the results here?

Also, from what I've read, it sounds like MalwareBytes Anti-Malware program has been the key to beating this virus. Of course, I can't open it because of the virus, but I hear that it's possible to rename the exe file to trick the virus into allowing it to open.

Do you know how to rename it? Or, if it's not too much of a hassle, to do another one of those zip files? I was going to try to download it at my parent's house and burn it onto a CD, but they have an Apple, and I couldn't figure out how to burn it onto a CD, and I don't even think it was compatible on their computer to begin with. My next step is to try and rename the file (if I can figure out how to do it), or go buy a flash drive and try to transfer it that way.

And thank you so much for helping!
