I have this on my computer. I am given the pop up that is shown above. I can google things but cannot go into anything without “Vista Internet Security” popping up a full screen telling me not to go any further and it won’t let me. I am not able to download any malware or spyware destroyers or searchers. What do I do? Is there something I can purchase at a store instead of having to download, because this has locked up my Internet.
The same thing has happened to me that happened to Anna.
same thing happeneds to me to .what can i do about it
i had the same thing happen wont let me do anything what i did was a system restore to 1 week priorer and downloaded everything in advance and ran the scanner i needed and it worked
Try running a free ware called “Spybot Search and Destroy”. It will detect and remove the malware.
tried spybot doesnt get rid of it and cannot get on internet to use auto remove.
Use Malwarebytes Anti-Malware. http://www.precisesecurity.com/tools-resources/adware-tools/malwarebytes-anti-malware/
Right Click the .exe and use “Run As” and run it as administrator after install. You can even install in Safe Mode w/ Networking.
I had to download it using a second computer then saved onto external hardrive. After that it took 4 hours to scan. sux.
I saved to a USB thumb drive from another computer. When I put it in the infected computer and click on the Setup, it will not do anything. I downloaded the app to the thumbdrive as well and it still did not work. Any ideas?
