Do you have an AV scanner installed and a malware/spyware detection tool installed? If not, try out
MSE: Microsoft Security Essentials
Malwarebytes.org.
Try those out and see if you cannot clean some stuff up.
I already have that installed i cant clean it please im afraid my comp is gunna crash soon
Download this >>
Download Kaspersky Rescue Disk 8.8.1.36 - A safe way to remove viruses from a computer without the risk of getting infected - Softpedia
Burn it into a CD, boot from it and start scanning, hopefully it would remove it.
Out of curiosity, is your OS on this computer legit? Some of the hacked copies can have sneaky stuff baked right into them..so if you are using one of those..you might want to reconsider.
yes its legit it was something i downloaded that screwd it up
Calm down :) !
now, what is the name of those fake security programs?
You can also try this. Boot into your safe mode. Press F8 during the bootup right after bios. From there, you should be able to at least go to your system configuration "msconfig" in start menu, and prevent those programs from starting.
Try running Malwarebytes in safe mode too. What antivirus app were you running? And what did you download?
