Am I screw? Or what?
Must be a virus or something because I'm sure getting crazy pop ups on my laptop of unknown nakie ladies. :-k
I have no clue 'bout computer but I have no idea what to trust on my computer.
I dont even have a virus scanner. I was doing pretty good for not having one. xD
Not like I had or do anything important on my laptop.
Just reading/graphics.
Still... :mg:
my collect of beautiful perverted pics...
Not to mention, my music video but thats okay, I can redownload it ..
Anyways, my bro wont be home until really late from work..
Can the problem be fix? Or am I doom??
Am I doom to reboot my computer & lose all my data on it?

what page were you open when you received the pop up?
it might be a pop up ad that usually automatically appear when you opened a certain web page, but it can be a virus too...
it is best recommended for you to install anti virus program on your laptop, it is very useful for preventing your laptop from a virus.. and such virus can be deadly for your laptop :lol:
so download it and install it.. there's plenty of free anti virus that you can find and download from the web.. :lol:
some free anti virus that you can use:
AVG 9.0 or avast!
or you can scan your laptop online using this: bitdefender

I dont remember. Haha. ^^:
I was checking my email & looking through past forums, I joined.
And, then of a sudden, I got pops up from teh computer(?) saying I have a virus.
Ah~ So horrible. :cry:
:sigh:
I'll wait till my bro comes home & install an anti-virus program (yes, thats whats called. Haha. the word just slip off my mind) for me.
I dont wanna mess it even more..
My bro gonna scold
I just know it..
:escape:

I use avast on my laptop and it works very well paired with anti-malware protection program malware bites.
Try that?
I'm pretty sure it's a popup with a virus on it if you click on it by the way you describe it.
-
Thanks for the suggestion/recommendation.
I'll try that.
So how bad is this virus I have? Fixable? Curable?
-
maybe you should try to install the anti virus first then after that go scan your laptop.. all of it.. all drive you have.. :lol:
I've given you the link... I am now use avast too.. since my previous AVG suddenly decided to stop working and I even can't update it :sigh:
-
Oh haha I missed seeing your link. Thank you.
I'll try to download it then. Have to turn back my laptop then..
I usually dont do anti-virus scan..I always had my bro do it. xD
If I have trouble I'll come back. ;D Thanks again, guys ~

Oh, I forgot to add:
DON'T USE NORTON! WHATEVER YOU DO DEAR GOD, DON'T USE IT!
Sorry, just trying to make a point. You can never remove Norton after you install it... It's terrible. It never lets your machine run with any other AV.
-
Haha, oh wow, for a sec there I was like
:nonono: Why?! Whats wrong? -panic mode-
(even though I'm not using Norton)
I'm install avast right now. It made me restart the computer.
No problem, I did. So now I have this big black screen that says it scanning. Is that how it suppose to be doing?
It does have a shortcut/icon I click on to open the program to scan the computer?
Am I doing this right??
Sorry for being so nooblish/clueless.

I used avast once and I didn't got any black screen...Usualy you have to open the program before to run a scan...:-k
