I was online the other day and windows warned me my comp was infected and tried to start doing a virus scan (with a program I have never seen before so I quit it) and redirected me to a supposed virus software companies page so I shut down my wireless and whenever I try to bring up a program or whenever a program initiates such as rundl a block comes up warning that it is infected asking me if i want to run a virus scan or not. I cannot use spyware or norman malware, the same block comes up and even if I hit cancel the program still does not initiate. I can get online still and do normal searches but I am afraid to use any websites such as this that require me to login. I am using another laptop right now. I have hijackthis and combo fix on my comp but I don't know how I could successfully send you a hijackthis file safely. How can I get read of this?
